With its precision files, Vallorbe® Glardon® has been offering the guarantee of high-quality, Swiss made products manufactured from a high-carbon steel especially designed for files, since 1899. These files are part of the Premium range of Glardon® products. They are particularly recommended for professionals who want to achieve an excellent quality of work. Our files are currently used in a number of areas, by precision engineers, mold makers and jewelers.
A precision file is characterized by:
- Its profile: we offer a broad selection of different profiles depending on your requirements: hand, pillar, round edge, equaling, crochet, warding, halfround, round, oval, three square, square, slotting, barrette, pippin, knife, screwhead, multifile and crossing, etc.
- Its length: this is measured in inches and does not include the tang.
-
Its cut: the cut of Glardon® precision files is designed by means of a scale of cuts ranging from 000 which is the coarsest, up to 8 which is the finest. Each of these cuts equates to a certain number of teeth per square centimeter.
The Vallorbe® precision files cover a wide range of applications including: beveling, chamfering, cleaning and filing welds, deburring, filing, fitting, hewing, and machining.
A Barrette file is a general purpose file used primarily for removal of burrs from keyways, dovetail ways and similar sharp angled slots. Cut only on the flat side and tapered in width and thickness, Barrette files are commonly used by jewelers, gunsmiths, and luthiers. Length, unless otherwise stated, is length of cut and does not include tang.
