With a cut 0 coarseness rating, it removes material efficiently while still producing a relatively smooth finish suitable for metalworking, toolmaking, and fine fabrication work. The file measures 6.25 inches overall length with a 3-inch length of cut, a width of 0.22 inches, and a thickness of 0.08 inches. It features a tang end for use with a separately sourced handle. Machinists, toolmakers, jewelers, and skilled trade professionals typically reach for this file when working in contoured or curved profiles that demand both flat and radiused filing surfaces in one tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis file is suited for applications requiring controlled stock removal on curved, flat, or angled surfaces such as die work, mold fitting, keyway cleaning, and general bench filing. The half round profile makes it especially useful where inside radii or curved recesses need to be dressed without marring adjacent flat surfaces. Cut 0 coarseness is a standard starting point for initial shaping before stepping down to finer cuts. It is commonly used in machine shops, maintenance and repair operations, and precision fabrication environments where hand-filing accuracy matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSwiss-pattern construction for consistent tooth geometry and uniform cut quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCut 0 coarseness for efficient material removal with moderate surface finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHalf round profile provides both a flat face and a curved face in a single tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNeedle file classification for work in small, detailed, or confined areas\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTang end compatible with standard file handles sold separately\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-inch length of cut delivers usable filing surface across the working stroke\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct addition to standard Swiss-pattern needle file sets used in bench filing, toolmaking, and precision metalworking applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA licensed or experienced tradesperson should fit a proper handle onto the tang before use to prevent hand injury during filing strokes. Secure the workpiece in a vise or fixture to maintain control and accuracy. Do not use the file as a pry tool or strike it with a hammer, as the hardened steel body is brittle and can fracture. Keep the file clean of metal filings using a file card or brush to maintain cutting efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFile Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Swiss-Pattern Half Round\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLevel of Precision\u003c\/strong\u003e: Needle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.22 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.08 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTang Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tang (no handle included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: None\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: GROBET\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31.524\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GROBET USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67906931818802,"sku":"31.524","price":28.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/86c7f12ba27343cf8e96abe4102fe575.jpg?v=1791172585","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/grobet-31-524-swiss-pattern-half-round-file-cut-0","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
