Apex 21522N Metal Ferruled Wooden File Handle Size 3

Product Description

The APEX 21522N is a Size 3 metal ferruled wooden handle designed for use with hand files and rasps. The wood construction provides a comfortable, secure grip during filing operations, while the metal ferrule reinforces the base of the handle to prevent splitting under pressure. At 4.125 inches in overall length, this is a compact handle suited to smaller file sizes. It is installed and used by machinists, pipefitters, fabricators, and general trades workers who perform manual material removal or deburring tasks.

This handle is appropriate for workshop, job-site, and maintenance environments where hand files are part of the standard toolkit. The Size 3 designation corresponds to smaller file diameters and tang sizes common in detail filing and finishing work. It is sold individually and fits applications where a replacement or spare handle is needed to keep tools in safe working condition.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand tool users and trade professionals maintaining their file sets.

Inspect the ferrule and wood for cracks before use to ensure the handle is structurally sound.
