When a bezel or frame joint has to close without a gap, this jig holds the stock while you file the mitre true. Tube, wire and sheet seat in its V-grooves and diamond-shaped channels, and the flat, hardened top surfaces guide your saw or file so every face comes off square — the groundwork that a well-chosen needle file then finishes cleanly.

Three knurled steel thumbscrews spread firm, even clamping pressure across the workpiece, and the separate guide rod and base let you set an angle once and repeat it across a whole batch. It is steel throughout; a light film of oil between jobs keeps it that way.

  • Machined jaws feature V-grooves and diamond-shaped channels for holding various stock profiles.
  • Three knurled steel thumbscrews provide firm, even clamping pressure on the workpiece.
  • The flat, hardened top surfaces act as a stable guide for your file or saw blade.
  • Includes a separate guide rod and base to set and maintain a consistent filing angle.

Who it's for

Primarily for bench jewellers and silversmiths in the UK creating bezels, settings, and frames. Also suitable for model makers and craftspeople requiring precise, repeatable angle cuts in small-profile metal stock.

Common questions at the bench

Will these mark soft silver wire?
Our flat-, snipe-, and round-nose pliers have polished interior jaws — they will not mark cleanly annealed precious-metal wire when used with normal grip pressure. For absolutely no-mark work on finished pieces, wrap the jaws with masking tape or nylon-jaw covers (sold separately).
Can these cut hardened wire?
Tungsten-carbide-tipped cutters in this collection handle hardened steel up to spring temper. Standard side cutters are for non-ferrous (silver, gold, copper, brass) up to half-hard. Check the product spec for the cutting capacity.
What is the difference between parallel and standard pliers?
Standard pliers pivot on a single point — the jaws scissor open and grip strongest at the tip. Parallel-action pliers stay perfectly parallel through the full opening, giving equal grip pressure across the whole jaw face. Parallel models are higher-precision (better for wire-wrapping and dead-soft annealed wire) but cost more.
Do they come spring-loaded?
Most of our bench pliers ship spring-loaded for one-handed operation. Where the spring is removable, the product description notes it. Spring tension is set for all-day comfort, not maximum grip.
