Product Description

The APEX TOOL GROUP LLC 21708NN is a 6-inch round bastard cut file designed for general-purpose material removal and shaping in trade and shop applications. The bastard cut grade sits between coarse and second-cut, making it well suited for fast stock removal on metals, plastics, and wood. At 1.26 pounds, it is a lightweight, single-file hand tool. The included red handle provides a secure grip during use. This file is sold individually as a carded unit, making it easy to stock or distribute on a job site.

Round bastard cut files are standard tools for electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general tradespeople who need to deburr conduit, enlarge holes, clean up rough cuts, or shape soft metals. The 6-inch length suits confined spaces and detail work. It is appropriate for both shop bench use and field service calls where a compact, versatile file is needed.

Installation Notes

Hand files require no power source and no special tools beyond appropriate work-holding equipment such as a vise. Always wear safety glasses when filing metal to protect against flying debris. Inspect the handle for cracks or looseness before use and replace if damaged. File in the forward stroke only and maintain consistent pressure to extend file life.
