Value Collection SC60105269 Taper File 7 in Single Cut

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SC60105269 is a 7-inch American-pattern extra slim taper file designed for precision filing in tight or tapered profiles. It features a single-cut tooth pattern, which produces a smoother finish and is well-suited for draw filing and finishing ferrous metals. The tang end accepts a standard file handle. At 0.31 pounds, this is a lightweight hand tool appropriate for use by machinists, millwrights, saw filers, and general trade technicians who need controlled material removal in narrow slots or angled surfaces.

This file is commonly used for sharpening tapered saw teeth, deburring, and fitting close-tolerance work in metal fabrication and maintenance applications. The extra slim taper profile allows access to narrow grooves and gullets that standard taper files cannot reach. It is suited to both shop bench work and field maintenance tasks where a fine, controlled cut is required.

Key Features

• Extra slim taper profile for access to narrow grooves and saw gullets
• Single-cut tooth pattern produces a smoother surface finish compared to double-cut
• 7-inch cut length covers the full working surface of the file
• 5/16-inch overall width at the widest point
• Tang end compatible with standard replaceable file handles
• Rigid construction — not flexible — for predictable cutting control

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose American-pattern taper file for use in tapered saw sharpening and metal finishing applications where an extra slim taper profile is required.

Installation Notes

Always fit a proper file handle onto the tang before use to prevent hand injury from the exposed tang point. Secure the workpiece in a vise when practical to maintain consistent filing pressure and angle. Files are hardened and brittle — do not use as a pry bar or strike with a hammer. Inspect the file for cracks before each use and replace if damaged.
