Bahco 1-100-06-2-2 Mill File 6 Inches Bastard Cut

Product Description

The BAHCO 1-100-06-2-2 is a 6-inch mill file with a bastard cut, designed for general-purpose metal filing tasks in trade and maintenance applications. Mill files of this type are used to draw-file flat surfaces, deburr edges, and sharpen tooling such as mower blades, axes, and hand saws. The file ships with a handle, making it ready to use out of the package. At 0.28 pounds, it is a lightweight, handheld tool suited for bench work and field service. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC techs, and general maintenance professionals regularly keep a mill file in their tool kit for metal prep and finishing tasks.

This file is appropriate for residential and light commercial maintenance work. Common applications include deburring cut conduit, cleaning up pipe ends, smoothing weld spatter, and sharpening blades. The bastard cut provides a medium-aggressive tooth pattern that removes material efficiently without leaving an overly rough surface finish. It is a practical addition to any trade toolbox where occasional metalwork or edge maintenance is required.

Installation Notes

Mill files are hand tools and require no power source or specialized installation. Secure the workpiece in a vise before filing to maintain control and prevent injury. Apply forward cutting strokes with moderate pressure and lift the file on the return stroke to preserve tooth life. Inspect the handle for secure fit before use and replace it if it shows cracks or looseness.
