Hand files are essential tools that are used to remove metal and refine surfaces in preperation for other techniques. Files cut as they are pushed forward across the surface of the desired area. However Files do not cut on the return stroke as this would undo the smoothing of the surface just made on the forward cut. This half round file measures 200mm long (8 inches) and has an overall width of 19.7mm. It features a flattened tip, not tapered and has a half round profile making it ideal for concave and flat surfaces, suitable for ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
