It features a second-cut coarseness grade, which sits between bastard cut and smooth cut, making it well suited for moderate stock removal and surface refinement on metal workpieces. The flat profile works across flat surfaces, edges, and inside angles. A bare tang is included for use with a separately sourced handle. At 1.7 pounds, this is a solid, full-size hand file built for bench and machine shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis file is used in machining, toolroom, and general metalworking applications where controlled material removal is needed. The second-cut tooth pattern is a common choice for deburring, fitting mating parts, and smoothing rough-machined or cast surfaces. It is non-flexible, which keeps the cutting face flat and consistent across the stroke. Licensed machinists, maintenance mechanics, pipefitters, and millwrights regularly reach for files of this size and cut in daily shop and field work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e14-inch American-pattern flat profile for versatile flat-surface and edge filing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSecond-cut coarseness grade for moderate stock removal and surface finishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-flexible construction maintains a true flat cutting surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBare tang included for use with a standard file handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated for machining and general metalworking tool applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard American-pattern flat file compatible with any commercially available file handle sized for a 14-inch tang file.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlways seat a properly sized handle onto the tang before use to prevent hand injuries from the exposed point. File in controlled forward strokes with appropriate pressure for the material being worked. Wear safety glasses when filing metal to protect against flying swarf.
