Apex 04729N Half Round File Second Cut 4 Inch

Product Description

The APEX 04729N is a half round file with a second cut, designed for shaping, smoothing, and deburring metal surfaces in trade and light industrial applications. The file body measures 4 inches in length with an overall length of 5.75 inches including the tang. At 0.43 inches wide and 0.13 inches thick, it handles both flat and curved workpiece profiles thanks to its dual-sided geometry. Constructed from steel, it delivers consistent cutting performance across a range of filing tasks. This file ships without a handle, so a separate handle is required before use.

This file is suited for HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general tradespeople who need to clean up burrs, refine fitment on pipe ends, dress conduit edges, or shape sheet metal components. The second cut profile sits between bastard and smooth, making it a practical choice for intermediate stock removal and surface refinement without excessive material loss.

Key Features

• Half round profile handles both flat and curved surfaces in a single tool
• Second cut tooth pattern for intermediate material removal and surface finish
• 4 inch file length suitable for close-quarters work
• Steel construction for durability across repeated use
• Hard stamped markings for permanent cut and grade identification
• Sold individually without handle, compatible with standard tang-style file handles

Compatibility

Designed as a standard tang-style half round file compatible with separately purchased file handles sized for 4 inch files.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for this hand tool. Secure a properly sized handle onto the tang before use to prevent injury from the exposed tang end. Always file with controlled strokes away from the body and wear appropriate eye protection when filing metal. Inspect the file for cracks or missing teeth before each use.
