Apex 37398 Swiss File Assortment Set Angled Cut 2 5.5 Inch

Product Description

The APEX 37398 is a Swiss file assortment set designed for precision hand filing across a wide range of metalworking and mechanical service tasks. The set includes 12 file shapes: Barrette, Crossing, Equaling, Flat, Half Round, Joint, Knife, Marking, Round, Slitting, Square, and Three Square. Each file measures 5.5 inches in length and features a Cut 2 (second cut) tooth pattern, which delivers a balance between material removal rate and surface finish quality. Files are hard stamped for permanent identification and constructed from steel for durability under shop and field conditions. Trades professionals use this assortment for deburring, fitting, and finish work on metal components.

This assortment suits residential and light commercial maintenance applications, as well as field service work in HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trades where precise metal fitting and deburring are required. The angled edge type and varied file shapes make the set well suited for working in tight clearances, on irregular profiles, and across flat stock. The 12-piece configuration provides the shape variety needed to handle most common hand-filing tasks from a single kit.
