Apex 04795N Half Round File Bastard Cut 6 Inch

Product Description

The APEX 04795N is a half round bastard-cut file designed for shaping, smoothing, and deburring metal, wood, and composite surfaces. The half round profile gives the technician two working faces in a single tool: a flat side for flat or convex surfaces and a curved side for concave contours, slots, and inside radii. Manufactured from steel with a hard-stamped marking style, this file measures 6 inches in length with a thickness of 0.15 inches and a width of 0.59 inches. The bastard cut provides a medium-coarse tooth pattern suited for rapid material removal before finishing work.

This file is well suited for general maintenance and fabrication tasks across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and mechanical trades. Common applications include dressing pipe ends, cleaning burrs from conduit, shaping gasket seats, and fitting metal components during installation or repair. Its compact 6-inch length makes it easy to maneuver in tight spaces encountered in field service work.

Installation Notes

Hand files are used by HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general tradespeople for material removal and surface preparation. Always secure the workpiece before filing and apply consistent, controlled strokes to avoid gouging. Wear appropriate eye protection when filing metal to guard against flying debris. Keep the file clean of swarf with a file card to maintain cutting efficiency.
