Kobalt brand needle files get the job done. They can be found at Lowe’s for less than 20 dollars.

Valtitan needle files are excellent but expensive.
The cheap sets on Amazon/Ebay/HF/Lowes all work fine for most tasks and can be tossed whn diull or broken.

Speedy, here is a cheap set of needle rasps:

I bought a good set that were hard chromed when I was about 21 years old. Still have them and they still work.
I'll be 66 in December. Wish I could remember where they came from.

I buy the cheap import ones, they work fairly well and are inexpensive enough to be disposable so I'm not afraid to blunt them on hard materials, or even modify them by grinding teeth off to make a safe side, etc. I must have 5 or 6 sets by now.
I generally like to use quality tools, but in this instance I get more mileage for my money by going cheap.

You can buy the Husky brand from Home Depot and they say lifetime warranty on them. Even though they are considered usable (or whatever the term is) they put that on there as advertising, but you can actually return them for a new pack when they get dull.
