SKU CH-RNTB-F14T9

Half-round Swiss-pattern file with double-cut faces and safe edges for smooth finishing on aluminium, brass, bronze, steel and tin

  • Precision file for aluminium, brass, bronze, steel and tin
  • Smooth double-cut profile shapes curved surfaces and corners cleanly
  • Safe edge style protects adjacent faces during detailed work
  • Rigid half-round body tapers to a point for controlled access
  • Supplied in a protective box for organised storage

Half-Round Precision File

The Simonds 84132500 is a Swiss-pattern precision file shaped for curved surfaces and inside corners. Its half-round profile tapers toward the point, giving access to tight radii on aluminium, brass, bronze, steel and tin workpieces. The double-cut faces and safe edges remove material smoothly while protecting adjacent surfaces. This rigid hand tool is aimed at machinists, jewellers and model makers who need controlled stock removal on contoured parts.

Boxed Storage and Identification

The file ships in a protective box that keeps the cutting faces from damage during transport and bench storage. The container also makes the 84132500 easy to identify and retrieve in a busy tool drawer. No additional handles, sleeves or software are supplied; the natural-finish body is ready for immediate use. Orders reaching $75 qualify for free shipping from the distributor.

Natural Finish and Tang Geometry

The file body carries a natural finish without coating, so there is no plating to chip or contaminate non-ferrous metals. A 4 in tang provides a secure grip or accepts a standard wooden handle if preferred. The 1/2 in width and 9/64 in thickness give a slim cross-section that slides into narrow channels while the rigid construction resists flexing under pressure.

Questions about this item

Will the double-cut teeth on this half-round file need re-cutting after extended use on steel?

The double-cut pattern on this Simonds 84132500 file is designed for material removal on steel and other metals; files cannot be re-cut and are replaced when the teeth dull.

What limits continuous filing with the 4-inch half-round profile before the tool loses effectiveness?

The 4-inch length without tang and 1/2-inch width concentrate pressure on curved surfaces; the smooth-cut finish wears faster under sustained heavy stock removal.

Does the natural-finish steel body heat up during all-day filing sessions?

The rigid carbon steel body conducts heat from friction during prolonged use; the safe edge and tapered point reduce drag but do not eliminate heat build-up.
