It features a bastard cut grade, which places it in the medium-coarse range — aggressive enough for fast stock removal while still leaving a workable surface finish. The file uses a double cut pattern on the flat sides and a single cut pattern on the edges, giving the user control over how aggressively each surface engages the workpiece. The body is steel construction, hard stamped for clear identification, and comes without a handle. Overall package dimensions measure approximately 7.79 inches in length, 0.59 inches in width, and 0.11 inches in height.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis flat file is suited for general metalworking, fabrication, pipefitting, and maintenance tasks where a handheld cutting tool is needed for shaping, deburring, or smoothing. The 6-inch length makes it a compact choice for detail work or confined spaces. It is commonly used in HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trades for dressing rough-cut conduit ends, pipe burrs, and sheet metal edges. The bastard cut grade is a standard starting point in most filing sequences before moving to finer cuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBastard cut grade for medium-coarse stock removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble cut pattern on sides for aggressive material removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle cut pattern on edges for controlled edge work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6-inch file length suits confined-space and detail applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel construction with hard stamped markings for durability and identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold individually without handle — compatible with standard file handles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose flat file suitable for use on ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, and other hard materials in typical trade and fabrication applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eA licensed tradesperson or experienced technician should attach a properly sized handle before use to prevent injury from the tang. Always secure the workpiece in a vise or clamp before filing. Wear appropriate eye protection, as metal filings can become airborne during use. Clean the file periodically with a file card to maintain cutting efficiency and extend service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFile Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFile Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.59 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFile Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.115 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFile Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFile Cut Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bastard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdge Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Double Cut on Sides, Single Cut on Edges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMarking Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hard Stamped\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandled\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7.79 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: APEX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 03467NN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"APEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51344769155378,"sku":"03467NN","price":120.08,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310536372.jpg?v=1782043051","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/apex-03467nn-flat-file-bastard-cut-6-inch-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
