Value Collection SC70571435 Half Round Double Cut File 8 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SC70571435 is an 8-inch American-pattern half round file designed for material removal and finishing in machining and fabrication applications. It features a double cut pattern, which uses two intersecting rows of teeth to remove material faster and leave a smoother finish than a single cut file. The file measures 3/4 inch wide and 7/32 inch thick, with a smooth cut coarseness rating. A tang end is included for use with a compatible file handle. This tool is used by machinists, tool and die workers, and general trade professionals who need a reliable hand file for shaping, deburring, and fitting metal components.

The SC70571435 is suited for machining environments where controlled material removal on curved and flat surfaces is required. The flat face works on flat surfaces and outside curves, while the rounded back addresses inside radii and contoured profiles. At 8 inches in length, this file handles a practical range of workpiece sizes encountered in general shop and field fabrication work. It is sold individually and requires no special tooling beyond a properly fitted file handle.

Key Features

• Half round profile provides two working surfaces: flat face and curved back
• Double cut tooth pattern for faster material removal with a smooth finish
• Smooth cut coarseness for finishing and fine material removal
• 8-inch cut length for practical reach on a wide range of workpieces
• Tang end compatible with standard file handles sold separately
• Non-flexible construction for consistent, controlled strokes

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct addition to any standard American-pattern file set used in machining, fabrication, or general metalworking applications.

Installation Notes

Always fit a proper handle onto the tang before use to prevent hand injury from an exposed tang end. Secure the workpiece in a vise or fixture before filing to maintain control and consistent stroke direction. File on the forward stroke only and lift the file on the return stroke to preserve tooth life. Inspect teeth regularly and clean with a file card to remove embedded material.
