This 8-inch double-cut file features a second-cut coarseness rating, making it well suited for general-purpose stock removal and surface smoothing on metal workpieces. The flat profile measures 25\/32 inches wide and 13\/64 inches thick, providing a rigid, non-flexible body that delivers consistent cutting action. A traditional tang design accepts standard file handles, giving the technician a secure grip during use. At 0.32 pounds, this file is lightweight enough for extended hand use without fatigue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis file is intended for use in machining, fabrication, and metal finishing work. The double-cut tooth pattern removes material faster than single-cut files and leaves a moderately smooth surface finish appropriate for deburring, shaping, and fitting metal parts. It is a standard tool in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and trade toolboxes wherever metal fitting work is performed. The second-cut coarseness is a practical middle-ground choice for general metalworking tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDouble-cut tooth pattern for efficient material removal on metal surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSecond-cut coarseness provides a balance of stock removal and surface finish quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlat file profile, 25\/32 inches wide and 13\/64 inches thick, for flat and convex surface work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8-inch length of cut suits a wide range of hand filing tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-flexible, rigid body ensures consistent cutting pressure and control\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTang design compatible with standard aftermarket file handles\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 any standard file set; fits standard file handles sized for tang-style American-pattern files.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA licensed machinist or skilled tradesperson should always secure an appropriate handle onto the tang before use to prevent hand injury. Ensure the workpiece is firmly clamped or secured in a vise before filing. Apply consistent, even strokes along the file length and lift on the return stroke to preserve tooth sharpness. Never use a file as a pry bar or striking tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFile Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCut Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Double\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoarseness\/Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: Second Cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFile Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13\/64 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTang\/Handle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tang\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlexible\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Machining\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.32 pounds\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: NICHOLSON\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 03599NN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NICHOLSON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51715526426930,"sku":"03599NN","price":28.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7d2d3ada4bf4650c9630960fccefc027_01167da2-1388-465f-92a2-1aae395d3c6d.jpg?v=1788515174","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nicholson-03599nn-flat-file-8-inches-double-cut","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
