Built from hardened steel with a regular-style cut, this file features safe edges that protect adjacent surfaces from unintended material removal. The pillar profile — narrow and rectangular — allows access to slots, keyways, and confined areas where wider files cannot reach. At 9.84 inches in overall length with a width of 0.69 inches and a height of 0.21 inches, it delivers controlled, consistent stock removal. The hard-stamped marking style ensures the cut designation remains readable through extended shop use. Machinists, millwrights, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians are the primary users of this tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 39965N suits general metalworking, maintenance, and fabrication tasks where a narrow file profile is required. Typical applications include cleaning up burrs on bar stock, truing keyways, filing bolt slots, and finishing flat surfaces in confined areas. The safe-edge design is especially useful when filing adjacent to a finished shoulder or mating surface that must not be marred. This file is appropriate for both shop bench work and field service use on mechanical and structural components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePillar profile provides a narrow, rectangular cross-section for access to slots and confined areas\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSafe edges prevent unintended material removal on adjacent finished surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHardened steel construction for durability and consistent cut performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHard-stamped markings for lasting identification of file grade and length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRegular-style cut balances stock removal rate with surface finish quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact dimensions — 0.69 inches wide, 0.21 inches thick — for tight-clearance applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose pillar file suitable for use on steel, iron, and similar ferrous metals in maintenance, fabrication, and machining applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFiles should be fitted with an appropriate handle before use to prevent injury from the tang. Always secure the workpiece in a vise or clamp before filing. Inspect the file for cracks or damage before each use and never strike a file against another hardened surface. Files are cutting tools, not pry bars — side loading or twisting during use can cause fracture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFile Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Pillar\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEdge Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Safe Edges\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: 9.84 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.69 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.21 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Regular\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMarking Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hard Stamped\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.45 pounds\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: 39965N\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"APEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51346763678002,"sku":"39965N","price":54.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310536478.jpg?v=1782089621","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/apex-39965n-pillar-file-safe-edges-10-inch-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
