Simonds 4 in Half Round File
This Simonds half round file measures 4 in and follows an American pattern for general purpose filing. It features a bastard double cut with uncut edges to remove material efficiently while leaving a smooth finish. The natural finish and compact length give the user good control during hand finishing tasks. It is suited for mechanics, fabricators and DIYers who need a reliable hand file for metal or wood surfaces.
Sustained hand filing performance
The bastard double cut pattern clears material steadily without loading up during extended use. Uncut edges prevent unwanted scoring when the file is drawn across adjacent faces. The 4 in length keeps the stroke short enough to maintain consistent pressure over long sessions. Users can work continuously on brackets, castings or hardwood without the teeth clogging or the handle slipping.
American pattern bastard double cut
The defining specification is the American pattern bastard double cut tooth geometry. This cut type determines how aggressively the file removes stock and how fine the resulting surface feels. Buyers who need a finer finish or a different tooth profile such as a smooth cut or a Swiss pattern should select another file. The half round profile limits the tool to curved and flat surfaces only.

Questions about this item
How much noise or vibration does the 73315000 half round file produce during extended use?
The file is a hand tool with no motor, so it generates no mechanical noise or vibration beyond the sound of the cutting teeth on the workpiece.
What other tools or equipment must I already own to use the 73315000 half round file effectively?
You need a suitable workpiece to file and, optionally, a handle that fits the tang for better grip and control during use.
Will the 73315000 half round file work alongside older American-pattern files I already keep in my toolbox?
Yes, it shares the same American pattern and bastard cut specification, so it performs identically to other files of that type already in your set.
