The file features a double-cut tooth pattern with a slight taper toward the point, allowing tradespeople to work into tight corners and square slots with consistent surface contact. At 0.47 inches in both width and thickness, the square profile fits standard keyways, slots, and narrow openings. The hard-stamped markings provide a durable reference on the tang. This is a hand tool intended for licensed tradespeople and experienced technicians performing finish filing and deburring tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 13376 suits applications where a square profile is required to dress mating surfaces, open slots, or refine keyways in metal components. Common installation scenarios include HVAC fitting adjustment, pipe and conduit preparation, and general mechanical maintenance. The smooth cut grade makes it appropriate for finishing passes and fine material removal rather than aggressive stock removal. It is suited for use on ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, and similar materials in both residential and light commercial service environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSquare cross-section at 0.47 inches width and 0.47 inches thickness for working in slots and keyways\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12-inch file length provides reach and leverage for controlled strokes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmooth cut grade for fine finishing and deburring passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble-cut tooth pattern with slight taper toward point for corner and slot work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHard-stamped markings for lasting identification on the tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose square hand file compatible with standard file handles accepting a tapered tang; suitable for use on ferrous and non-ferrous metals in trade and maintenance applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eSquare files are hand tools used by HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general mechanical tradespeople for deburring, fitting, and surface preparation. Secure the workpiece firmly before filing to maintain consistent stroke control and avoid injury. Always fit an appropriate handle to the tang before use to protect the operator's hand. Inspect the file for cracks or damaged teeth before each use and replace if compromised.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFile Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Square\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFile Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFile Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.47 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFile Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.47 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: Double Cut, Tapered Slightly Towards Point\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: 0.31 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\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: 13376\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"APEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51346647154994,"sku":"13376","price":182.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310536420.jpg?v=1782086576","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/apex-13376-square-file-12-inch-smooth-double-cut","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
