Value Collection SC60105038 Round File 4 in Smooth Double Cut

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SC60105038 is a 4-inch round American-pattern file designed for precision material removal and finishing work in metalworking, fabrication, and maintenance applications. This file features a double-cut tooth pattern, which uses two intersecting rows of teeth to remove material faster and leave a smoother surface than single-cut alternatives. The smooth coarseness rating makes it suited for fine finishing passes rather than aggressive stock removal. At 5/32 inch in diameter, this round profile is well matched to filing the interior of small holes, slots, chain links, and curved recesses. The tang end accepts a standard file handle, which should always be installed before use.

This file is intended for use by machinists, tool-and-die workers, maintenance technicians, welders, and fabricators working on metal components that require controlled shaping or deburring in tight or curved areas. The 4-inch overall length makes it particularly useful in confined workspaces where a larger file would be impractical. It is also a common choice for sharpening chain saw chains, cleaning keyways, and refining small castings or weldments.

Key Features

• Round profile with 5/32 inch diameter for filing holes, slots, and curved recesses
• Double-cut tooth pattern removes material efficiently while producing a smoother finish
• Smooth coarseness rating suited for finishing and fine material removal
• 4-inch length designed for use in confined or restricted workspaces
• Tang end compatible with standard file handles
• Non-flexible construction for consistent, controlled filing pressure

Compatibility

Designed as a standard American-pattern replacement round file suitable for use with conventional file handles and general metalworking hand-file applications.

Installation Notes

This file should always be fitted with a properly sized handle before use to prevent injury from the exposed tang. Secure the workpiece in a vise or fixture before filing to maintain control and accuracy. Files should be used with forward-stroke pressure only and lifted on the return stroke to prevent premature tooth wear. Do not use this file on materials harder than the file itself, as this will damage the cutting teeth.
