Square file for machinists

The Simonds 73426000 is a 4-inch American-pattern machinists file with a square profile and double-cut faces. It is designed for shaping and finishing aluminium, brass, bronze, steel and tin in workshop and maintenance tasks.

Check your filing requirements

Verify that a smooth-cut file with 66 to 70 teeth per inch matches the surface finish you need. Confirm the 1/8-inch thickness and width suit the slot or surface dimensions on the workpiece before ordering.

Fits in a tool box or bench setup

The rigid, tapered body comes in a box container and requires no handle or power source. Its safe edges protect adjacent faces while the wavy-tooth pattern clears material efficiently, freeing bench space otherwise needed for bulkier shaping tools.

Questions about this item

Does the Simonds 73426000 square file come with a handle or do I need to buy one separately?

The file is supplied in a box with a natural finish and no handle attached; a separate handle must be purchased if required.

How do I decide between the 66 and 70 teeth-per-inch ratings on this smooth double-cut file?

Both figures represent the same smooth cut density; the range covers manufacturing tolerances, so either value indicates the same fine finish on steel, brass or aluminium.

What does the 4-inch length mean when I am filing a workpiece in the shop?

The 4-inch cutting length gives a compact, rigid tool that reaches tight corners and provides controlled strokes on small metal parts.
