Simonds 12in Mill File

The Simonds 73150500 is a 12-inch American pattern mill file built for machinists and metalworkers who need a rigid, smooth-cut tool. Its rectangular profile and single-cut faces suit finishing work on aluminium, brass, bronze, steel and tin.

Thermals noise and power

As a hand file it generates no heat, draws no power and runs silently during normal use. The natural finish on the steel body resists corrosion without coatings that can wear away.

Build quality and daily use

The 1 3/16 inch wide by 7/32 inch thick blank tapers toward the point and carries 41 teeth per inch across four cut edges. Packed in a box, it stores flat and resists bending under heavy hand pressure.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Simonds 73150500 mill file and what step do people often get wrong?

The file ships ready to use with its natural finish and 12 in length; the common mistake is skipping a handle on the tang, which reduces control on the 1 3/16 in wide rectangular body.

What maintenance will the Simonds 73150500 mill file need over time?

Clean the 41 teeth per inch single-cut faces with a file card after use on aluminium, brass, bronze, steel or tin, and store in the supplied box to protect the natural finish.

What limit appears first when using the Simonds 73150500 mill file continuously?

The 7/32 in thick rigid body resists flex, but the smooth-cut single edges on all four sides will dull before the rectangular profile shows wear.
