Description
Needle files work in one direction and must be used by filing gently away from you. They should not be used back and forth in a sawing action.
They are an essential tool for detailed and intricate work and are perfect for designing, chamfering, smoothing, shaping, deburring, filing, setting and finishing work on soft metals, steel and steel alloys, wood, plastics, ceramic, polymer clay, glass and stone.
