Pferd 11016203 Chain Saw Round File 8 Inches

Product Description

The PFERD 11016203 is an American-pattern round chainsaw file designed for sharpening chainsaw chain teeth in the field or shop. At 8 inches in length and 5/32 inches in diameter, it fits the standard tooth geometry found on most consumer and professional chainsaw chains. The tang end accepts a file handle for controlled stroke and consistent tooth angle maintenance. Built for use on steel chain, this file is a standard item for arborists, loggers, tree crews, and equipment maintenance techs who service chainsaws regularly.

This file is intended for chainsaw chain sharpening applications where a round profile is required to restore the curved cutting edge of individual cutter teeth. The 5/32-inch diameter matches commonly used chain pitches. It is suited for both field touch-up work and bench sharpening on a variety of chainsaw brands and chain types. A file handle is sold separately and is recommended for safe, accurate use.

Installation Notes

Chain saw files are installed and used by arborists, landscapers, loggers, and equipment technicians performing chainsaw maintenance. Always disengage the chain brake and ensure the saw is powered off and the spark plug wire is disconnected before filing chain teeth. Mount a file handle onto the tang before use to maintain proper filing angle and protect hands. Follow the chain manufacturer's specified file diameter and tooth angle recommendations for correct sharpening results.
