Value Collection SC60104650 Hand File 10 in Double Cut

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SC60104650 is a 10-inch American-pattern hand file designed for smoothing, deburring, and shaping metal surfaces. It features a double cut pattern, which uses two sets of parallel teeth crossing at an angle to remove material faster and leave a smoother finish than a single-cut file. With a smooth cut coarseness grade, this file is suited for finishing work where surface quality matters. The file measures 31/32 inches wide and 1/4 inch thick, and it includes a tang for use with a separately sourced file handle. At 0.56 pounds, it is lightweight enough for extended hand use without fatigue.

This hand file is a general-purpose tool used across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and mechanical trades wherever metal needs to be dressed, deburred, or fit to tolerance. Common applications include cleaning burrs from cut conduit or pipe, dressing valve seats, smoothing sheet metal edges, and fitting parts during equipment installation or repair. The 10-inch length provides good leverage and control for bench work and in-field use alike. It is a standard addition to any service technician's hand tool kit.

Installation Notes

Always seat the tang fully into a properly sized file handle before use to prevent hand injury from an exposed tang. Keep the file path clear of the workpiece edge to avoid slipping. Files are hardened and should not be used on hardened steel surfaces, which can cause tooth damage or file breakage. Inspect the file for cracks or missing teeth before each use and replace if damaged.
