It is used for fine material removal and finishing work on metal, wood, and plastic surfaces. The round profile allows access to curved or circular openings, slots, and contoured surfaces that flat files cannot reach. At 0.5 inches in diameter and 12 inches in overall length, it provides good reach and control for detailed hand filing. The tang end accepts a standard file handle, giving the user a secure grip during use. This tool is suited for machinists, pipefitters, fabricators, and general trade technicians who require smooth, controlled stock removal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis file is appropriate for light deburring, smoothing, and shaping tasks in maintenance, fabrication, and repair settings. The single-cut tooth pattern removes material in one direction and produces a finer, smoother finish than double-cut files. It is commonly used in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general industrial trades for cleaning pipe ends, enlarging holes, and fitting parts to close tolerances. Its non-flexible body maintains consistent contact across the work surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRound profile accesses curved grooves, slots, and circular openings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-cut tooth pattern produces a smooth, refined finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSmooth coarseness grade suited for finishing and light material removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e12-inch cut length provides reach for a wide range of applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTang end accepts standard aftermarket file handles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-flexible body for consistent, controlled filing stroke\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an American-pattern hand file for use with standard file handles.

Secure the workpiece in a vise or clamp before filing to maintain control and accuracy. Apply consistent forward pressure on the cutting stroke and lift or ease pressure on the return stroke to preserve tooth life. Inspect the file for cracks or missing teeth before use and replace if damaged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFile Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Round\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCut Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoarseness\u003c\/strong\u003e: Smooth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFile Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTang Style\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.56 pounds\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: 12199\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NICHOLSON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51720283423026,"sku":"12199","price":39.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/27142b40be4fa7204c1439dbf652fe2f_e6932e8e-841d-457e-84e7-ae51631c0555.jpg?v=1788562181","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/nicholson-12199-round-file-12-inches-single-cut-smooth","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
