Simonds 84368000 Precision File

The Simonds 84368000 is a Swiss pattern equaling file designed for precision work on aluminum, brass, bronze, steel, and tin. Its double-cut face and single-cut edges provide a smooth finish on flat surfaces and narrow slots. The rigid, natural-finished body ensures consistent control for detailed fitting tasks. It is supplied new in a protective box.

Double-Cut Face and Single-Cut Edges

The double-cut pattern on the faces removes material efficiently while leaving a smooth surface on both ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Single-cut edges allow the file to work in confined spaces without damaging adjacent surfaces. Four cut edges maximize the usable cutting area around the rectangular profile. No handle is included, so users must supply their own.

Four-Inch Length for Fine Detail Work

At four inches long without the tang, this file suits intricate work such as fitting joints, cleaning slots, and finishing small components. The 7/16 inch width and 5/64 inch thickness limit its reach to accessible internal and external surfaces. It is not suited for heavy stock removal or large surface areas where longer files would be more efficient.

Questions about this item

How often will the double-cut faces on this 4 in precision file need replacing when used on steel?

The double-cut faces on this 4 in precision file are made from hardened tool steel and will last through extended use on steel, aluminum, brass and bronze before any replacement is needed.

What stops the file from removing material efficiently during prolonged sessions?

Metal filings packing the double-cut teeth reduce cutting efficiency first; clearing them with a file card restores the smooth cutting action on steel and non-ferrous metals.

Does the natural-finish body heat up or cause hand fatigue during all-day use?

The rigid 5/64 in thick body with 4 in handle length stays cool and transmits minimal vibration, so heat and fatigue are negligible during continuous filing work.
