Measuring 0.375 inches in diameter and 10 inches in working length, this single-cut file features a slight taper toward the point, allowing techs and tradespeople to work inside bores, enlarge holes, and clean up curved profiles with controlled, fine-cutting action. The smooth cut rating means fewer, finer teeth per inch, producing a refined surface finish suited for final-pass filing and deburring where a coarser cut would leave too much roughness. At 0.3 pounds, it is light enough for extended single-hand use. Constructed from steel with a hard-stamped marking for durable identification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis round file is used across mechanical, plumbing, HVAC, and electrical trades wherever fitted parts require light material removal or edge cleanup before assembly. Common applications include enlarging conduit knockouts, cleaning burrs from pipe ends, smoothing irregular edges on sheet metal brackets, and fitting mechanical components to close tolerances. Its round cross-section and tapered profile make it well-suited for slotted holes, circular openings, and contoured surfaces that flat or half-round files cannot reach effectively.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSmooth-cut single-cut teeth for fine finishing and deburring passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.375 inch diameter round profile with slight taper toward the point\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e10 inch working length for controlled reach in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction with hard-stamped part marking for lasting identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.35 inch thickness throughout the body for consistent cross-section grip in guides or fixtures\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.3 pounds for comfortable extended use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose round file suitable for use on steel, aluminum, brass, plastic, and similar machinable materials in trade and light industrial applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRound files of this type are hand tools requiring no power source, but proper handle fitment is recommended before use to prevent tang injuries. Secure the workpiece in a vise or clamp before filing to maintain control and achieve consistent material removal. File in one direction with moderate, even pressure and lift on the return stroke to prolong tooth life. Inspect the file regularly for clogging and use a file card or brush to clear embedded material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFile Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12.62 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.35 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.35 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFile Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: Smooth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdge Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single Cut, Tapered Slightly Toward Point\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Round\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 037103120847\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: 12084\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"APEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51345260544306,"sku":"12084","price":185.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310536413.jpg?v=1782053216","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/apex-12084-round-file-0-375-in-smooth-cut","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
