Files are graded as below; Cut 0 - Coarse Cut 1 - Coarse/Medium Cut 2 - Medium Cut 3 - Medium/Fine Cut 4 - Fine The smooth round handle can be held comfortably without use of an additional wooden or plastic handle although a handle such as 999 493, is recommended for long term use. Jewellers may wish to use a separate set of needle files for gold work to avoid cross-contamination of metal.
