Bahco 1-170-10-3-2 3-square Ergo File 10 in Smooth 41 Tpi

Product Description

The BAHCO 1-170-10-3-2 is a 3-square (triangular) Ergo file measuring 10 inches in length with a smooth cut rating of 41 teeth per inch (TPI). Designed for precision material removal and fine finishing work, this file handles internal angles, saw tooth sharpening, and deburring tasks on metal, hardened steel, and similar materials. The Ergo handle design provides a secure, comfortable grip during extended use. It is sold individually and is a standard tool-of-the-trade for machinists, pipefitters, millwrights, and general maintenance technicians who require controlled filing in tight or angled work areas.

This file is suited for both shop and field applications where a triangular profile is needed to reach 60-degree angles, sharpen hand saws, or refine internal slots and notches. At 10 inches and a smooth 41 TPI cut, it is appropriate for finish work rather than aggressive stock removal, making it the right choice for fine deburring, edge cleanup, and saw sharpening on medium to fine-pitch teeth. Applicable in metal fabrication, HVAC sheet metal finishing, plumbing rough-in cleanup, and general mechanical maintenance environments.

Key Features

• 3-square (triangular) cross-section accesses 60-degree internal angles and tight corners

• 10-inch length provides reach and leverage for a wide range of filing tasks
• Ergo handle design reduces hand fatigue during extended use
• Sold individually (each) with a minimum order quantity of 1

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose 3-square hand file compatible with standard file handle systems; suitable for use on ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, and hardened materials in typical shop and field maintenance applications.

Installation Notes

Hand files of this type are installed and used by machinists, millwrights, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians without specialized tooling. Always secure the workpiece in a vise before filing to prevent movement and injury. Inspect the Ergo handle for cracks or looseness before each use and replace if damaged. Apply consistent, controlled forward strokes and lift the file on the return stroke to preserve tooth sharpness and extend tool life.
