Value Collection SC70589015 Slim Taper File 4 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SC70589015 is a 4-inch slim taper American-pattern file designed for precision filing work on tapered saw teeth and similar fine-pitch applications. Finished with a single-cut pattern, this file removes material in a controlled manner and leaves a smoother surface than double-cut files of comparable size. The overall length of cut runs the full 4 inches of the blade, and the working face measures 7/32 inch wide at the base, tapering toward the tip. A tang end is included for use with a standard file handle. This file is a common hand tool for saw filers, millwrights, and trade professionals who need exacting edge maintenance.

This file is suited for sharpening hand saws, crosscut saws, and similar tools where a slim taper profile is required to fit the gullet between teeth. The single-cut configuration makes it appropriate for finish work on harder metals where surface finish and dimensional control matter. It is a compact 4-inch format, well-suited for close-quarter work and for filers who prefer a short, maneuverable tool. Non-flexible construction keeps the blade rigid through the full stroke.

Installation Notes

Always fit a properly sized handle onto the tang before use to prevent hand injury. Secure the workpiece in a vise or saw vise before filing. File in one direction only, lifting on the return stroke to preserve the cut teeth and extend file life. Inspect the file for cracks or worn teeth before each use and replace if the cutting surface is glazed or damaged.
