Precision diamond needle files for detailed shaping and finishing of hard materials on the jeweller's bench.

What it does

This six-piece set tackles intricate work on metal, glass, stone, and ceramics where standard files fail. The uniform 140-grit diamond coating electroplated onto precision steel shafts effectively removes material and refines surfaces. The moulded plastic handles with yellow collars are designed for a secure, comfortable grip during sustained detailed work, allowing for controlled strokes and accurate material removal.

How to use it

  • Select the appropriate file shape for your task.
  • Use light, consistent pressure in a forward motion.
  • Clean files regularly to maintain cutting efficiency.

Who it's for

Essential for UK bench jewellers, engravers, and watchmakers. Ideal for silversmiths and serious hobbyists working with challenging materials. These files complement coarser rasps, allowing for the fine-tuning and finishing stages of detailed metalwork, stone setting, or component preparation.

What's in the box

One 6-piece set of 140-grit diamond needle files.

Kevin G. ★★★★★

These 140-grit diamond files handled a tough agate cabochon without any noticeable wear. The hard steel body gives great control for small, precise cuts on metal findings. Exactly what I needed for cleaning up castings and fine detail work.

Penelope F. ★★★★★

The diamond coating on these files hasn't worn a bit after shaping several stone settings, and the 140 grit gives a surprisingly smooth finish for such an aggressive cut. The handles are comfortable enough for extended bench time.

Amelia ★★★★★

The 140 grit cuts through my silver bezels like butter, and the diamond coating hasn’t dulled a bit after a week of daily use. I grabbed the flat file for a stubborn glass edge and it smoothed it down without chipping.
