Value Collection SC70570221 Round File 6 Inches Double Cut

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SC70570221 is a 6-inch round American-pattern file designed for shaping, smoothing, and enlarging holes or curved surfaces in metal and other hard materials. It features a double cut pattern with a second cut coarseness, which removes material efficiently while leaving a moderately smooth finish. The tang end allows the file to be fitted with a standard handle for secure grip during use. At 0.12 pounds, it is a lightweight hand tool suited for bench work and field applications. Machinists, pipefitters, and general maintenance technicians typically reach for this type of file when fine-tuning fitments or cleaning up burrs.

This file is appropriate for use in metal fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and on service calls where portability matters. The round cross-section makes it well suited for working inside circular openings, chain saw blade teeth, and similarly contoured surfaces. The 7/32-inch diameter keeps it compact enough for tight clearances. It is sold individually and is a standard addition to any professional tool kit requiring manual material removal in confined or curved geometries.

Installation Notes

Always fit a proper handle onto the tang before use to prevent hand injury from the exposed point. Secure the workpiece in a vise or clamp before filing to maintain control and accuracy. File on the forward stroke and lift or ease pressure on the return stroke to extend file life. Dispose of or recycle worn files in accordance with local shop safety guidelines.
