Bahco 1-210-12-2-2 Half Round Ergo File 12 in 28 Tpi

Product Description

The BAHCO 1-210-12-2-2 is a 12-inch half round Ergo file with a second cut tooth pattern and 28 teeth per inch (TPI). Designed for material removal and surface finishing on metal, pipe fittings, and fabricated components, this file handles both flat and curved surfaces thanks to its half round profile. The second cut pattern provides a balance between stock removal speed and surface smoothness, making it a practical choice for everyday bench and field work. Plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and general tradespeople reaching for a reliable hand file will find this tool suited to deburring cut pipe ends, shaping soft metals, and fitting gasket surfaces.

This file is appropriate for residential and commercial trade applications where hand filing of metal, plastic, or composite materials is required. Common uses include deburring copper and steel pipe cuts, smoothing rough edges on sheet metal ductwork, and fitting components during mechanical assembly. The half round shape allows work on both flat surfaces and inside curved profiles such as pipe saddles or fittings without switching tools.

Key Features

• Half round profile handles flat and curved surfaces in a single tool
• Second cut tooth pattern balances material removal rate with surface finish quality
• 28 TPI provides controlled, consistent stock removal on common trade metals
• 12-inch length gives leverage for bench work and field filing tasks
• Ergo handle design reduces hand fatigue during extended use

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose hand file for use in plumbing, HVAC, pipefitting, and light fabrication applications where a 12-inch half round second cut file is specified.

Installation Notes

Hand files are used by licensed tradespeople and experienced technicians working on metal components during fabrication, repair, or installation. Always secure the workpiece in a vise or clamp before filing to prevent slipping and injury. Inspect the handle for cracks or looseness before use, and never use a file without a properly seated handle. Apply forward stroke pressure only and lift on the return stroke to preserve tooth life.
