Value Collection 382-0605 Swiss-pattern Knife File Cut 0

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 382-0605 is a Swiss-pattern knife file designed for precision material removal in tight or angled areas where standard files cannot reach. This is a Cut 0 file, meaning it carries the coarsest tooth geometry in the Swiss-pattern grading system, making it suited for rapid stock removal on soft metals, plastics, and similar materials. The knife profile — narrow and tapered to a thin edge — allows the technician to work inside slots, notches, and V-shaped grooves. Overall length is 6.25 inches, with a 3-inch length of cut and a handle included for immediate use out of the package.

This file is appropriate for light fabrication, maintenance, and toolroom applications where a needle-level precision tool is required. The knife file geometry is commonly used by pipefitters, machinists, HVAC fabricators, and general maintenance trades when deburring or shaping metal components in confined areas. The included handle makes it ready to use without additional tooling.

Designed as a general-purpose Swiss-pattern knife file suitable for use on soft metals, plastics, and similar workpiece materials in maintenance, fabrication, and toolroom environments.

Installation Notes

Files are hand tools used by qualified tradespeople and do not require power-down or lockout procedures on their own; however, always ensure the workpiece is secured before filing. Wear appropriate eye protection and gloves when filing metal to guard against chips and sharp edges. Never use a file without its handle, as an exposed tang can cause serious hand injury — this unit ships with a handle already fitted.
