Pferd 19600152 Swiss-pattern Hand File 6 Inches Cut 0

Product Description

The PFERD 19600152 is a Swiss-pattern hand file designed for precision metalworking and finishing tasks. Measuring 6 inches in overall length with a rectangular profile 5/8 inches wide and 5/32 inches thick, this file features a Cut 0 double-cut tooth pattern that removes material aggressively while leaving a relatively smooth surface. The tang end accepts a standard file handle. It is suited for machinists, toolmakers, pipefitters, and fabricators who require controlled stock removal on ferrous and non-ferrous metals, including stainless steel.

This file is intended for hand filing applications in shop, field, and maintenance environments. The rectangular cross-section makes it effective for flat surfaces, slots, and inside corners. The Cut 0 double-cut pattern is especially well-suited for stainless steel and other hard materials where a coarser Swiss-pattern cut delivers efficient material removal without clogging. Typical users include metal fabricators, pipefitters, and precision machinists working in industrial and commercial settings.

Key Features

• Cut 0 double-cut Swiss-pattern tooth geometry for aggressive stock removal on hard metals
• Rectangular file shape works flat surfaces, slots, and square inside corners

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Always fit a secure handle onto the tang before use to prevent hand injury from the exposed tang tip. Keep the file clean with a file card or brush to maintain cutting efficiency and prevent pinning, especially when working stainless steel. Files should be stored separately to avoid contact with other tools that can damage the teeth.
