Century Drill Tool Co Inc 75406 Cylinder Rotary File

Product Description

The CENTURY DRILL TOOL CO INC 75406 is a cylinder-shaped rotary file designed for rasping and filing soft metals. It is constructed from special alloy steel that has been hardened and tempered to extend service life and resist wear under repeated use. The precision-ground cutting edges are engineered to resist clogging and loading during operation, keeping the file cutting cleanly throughout the task. The 1/4 inch shank is compatible with standard drill chucks, making this a practical addition to any metalworking or fabrication setup. Metalworkers, pipefitters, and fabricators reach for this type of rotary file when shaping, deburring, or smoothing soft metal workpieces.

This rotary file is suited for use in light fabrication, sheet metal work, and general metal shaping applications where a cylinder profile is needed to work flat surfaces, slots, or inside corners. The cylinder geometry allows consistent contact along the full cutting length. The 1/4 inch shank fits all standard drill presses and handheld drills without adapters, making it versatile across common shop and field setups. It is sold in a package of 3 units, providing immediate backups for high-volume filing tasks.
