With a 4-inch overall length and a 1.75-inch length of cut, this rectangular-profile file is suited for fine deburring, fitting, and finishing work on metal components. Cut 2 grit provides a balance between stock removal and smooth finish, making it appropriate for tool-and-die work, instrument repair, and precision fabrication tasks. It ships without a handle, using a tang end for use with a separately sourced file handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis file is used in precision metalworking, tool and die, jewelry, instrument repair, and general bench work applications. The equalling profile  -  a flat rectangular cross-section with parallel faces  -  allows work on flat surfaces, slots, and mating parts where consistent thickness across the file width is required. Its needle file classification makes it appropriate for detail work in confined areas where standard-length files cannot reach effectively.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSwiss-pattern Cut 2 for medium-fine material removal and finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEqualling (rectangular) profile with parallel flat faces for consistent surface contact\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-inch overall length in the needle file class for access to confined work areas\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1.75-inch length of cut provides usable filing surface relative to overall size\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTang end compatible with standard file handles sold separately\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct bench-stock addition for precision needle file sets used in tool-and-die, instrument repair, and fine metalworking applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeedle files are hand tools installed and used by machinists, tool-and-die makers, jewelers, and precision fabricators. Before use, fit a handle rated for the tang size to prevent hand injury from the exposed tang. Always secure the workpiece in a vise or fixture before filing. Inspect the file for cracks or missing teeth before each use and replace if damaged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFile Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Swiss Pattern\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFile Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Equalling (Rectangular)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLevel of Precision\u003c\/strong\u003e: Needle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tang, no handle included\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: GROBET\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31.499\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GROBET USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67906564915506,"sku":"31.499","price":29.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4565d4c6712413e85959bb33b7c157ae.jpg?v=1791169236","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/grobet-31-499-swiss-pattern-equalling-needle-file-4-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
