Value Collection SC70573530 Mill File 10 in Single Cut

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SC70573530 is a 10-inch American-pattern mill file designed for smoothing, deburring, and finishing metal surfaces. It features a single-cut tooth pattern with a smooth-cut coarseness grade, making it well-suited for draw filing and producing fine, flat finishes on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The file measures 31/32 inches wide and 11/64 inches thick, with a tang end for use with a standard file handle. At 0.56 pounds, it is lightweight and easy to control for extended hand-filing work. Machinists, pipefitters, ironworkers, and maintenance technicians reach for this style of file when a controlled, even cut is the priority.

This mill file is a standard shop and field tool for tradespeople who need to true up edges, clean burrs from cut pipe or conduit, fit mating parts, or prepare surfaces before welding or coating. The 10-inch length and smooth-cut single pattern make it a practical choice for bench work, in-place fitting, and on-site metalwork where power tools are impractical or unnecessary. It ships as a single file without a handle, so a separately sourced handle sized for a tang file is required before use.

Key Features

• 10-inch cut length provides reach and leverage for flat filing operations
• Single-cut tooth pattern for controlled material removal and fine surface finish
• Smooth-cut coarseness grade suited for draw filing and finishing passes
• 31/32-inch width offers a broad filing face for flat and slightly curved surfaces
• 11/64-inch thickness keeps the file rigid and reduces flex during use
• Tang end accepts standard file handles for safe, controlled grip

Compatibility

Designed as a standard American-pattern mill file compatible with any tang-style file handle sized for a 10-inch file.

Installation Notes

Always fit a proper handle onto the tang before use to prevent hand injury from the exposed tang point. Secure the workpiece in a vise or clamp before filing to maintain control and produce a flat, consistent surface. File in one direction with moderate, even pressure; dragging the file on the return stroke dulls the teeth prematurely. Inspect the file for cracks or missing teeth before each use and replace if damaged.
