Value Collection 382-0607 Swiss-pattern Equalling File Cut 0

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 382-0607 is a Swiss-pattern equalling file designed for precision metalwork and finishing applications. With a Cut 0 tooth pattern, this file removes material at a coarse rate suitable for initial shaping and stock removal on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The equalling profile features parallel edges and flat faces, making it well-suited for filing flat surfaces, slots, and right-angle corners. Overall length is 6.25 inches with a 3-inch length of cut. The file ships with a handle installed, ready for immediate use. Metalworkers, machinists, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians are the primary users.

This file fits applications where flat, parallel surfaces must be trued or deburred in confined areas. The needle-level precision classification indicates a finer Swiss-pattern geometry suited for detail work on tooling, fixtures, and precision components. The 6-inch width and 0.07-inch thickness allow access to narrow slots and recesses. It is commonly used in machine shops, maintenance and repair operations, and fabrication environments where hand-filing accuracy matters.

Key Features

• Cut 0 tooth pattern for aggressive stock removal in Swiss-pattern files
• Needle-level precision classification for detail and close-tolerance work
• 3-inch length of cut provides an effective working surface
• 0.07-inch thickness allows entry into narrow slots and recesses
• Includes handle for immediate use out of the package

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use Swiss-pattern equalling file compatible with standard file handles and suitable for hand-filing applications on metal workpieces in machine shop and maintenance settings.

Installation Notes

Swiss-pattern files are hand tools requiring no power source or special installation. Secure the handle firmly before use to prevent the tang from causing injury. Always file with controlled strokes and secure the workpiece in a vise to avoid slipping. Inspect the file for cracks or missing teeth before each use and do not strike files against hard surfaces as they are brittle.
