Simonds 10 in Round Machinists File
This Simonds machinists file measures 10 inches long with a round profile and 38 teeth per inch. It features a smooth-cut, double-cut pattern on both face and edges for material removal. The natural finish body tapers toward the point and is made for use on aluminum, brass, bronze, steel and tin. It comes packaged in a box without an insulated handle.
Ideal for machinists and metalworkers
The smooth cut and fine 38 TPI suit finish work and precise shaping on non-ferrous and ferrous metals. The rigid, tapered round profile reaches into holes and curved surfaces. Users needing rapid stock removal, coarse bastard cuts or insulated handles for electrical work should choose a different file style.
38 teeth per inch smooth cut
This tooth count and coarseness define the file as a smooth-cut tool for finishing rather than heavy removal. The double-cut face and edges produce a finer surface on aluminum, brass, bronze, steel and tin. Select this specification when the job demands a fine finish on a 10 inch round profile.
