About Files
Files, also known as American-pattern and machinists' files, are used to remove material quickly.
Precision files, also known as Swiss-pattern files, are made to exacting measurements to ensure smoothness and are useful for finishing delicate and intricate parts.

Precision Rectangular Files





Made to exacting measurements to ensure smoothness, these files are used for finishing delicate and intricate parts. They do not include a handle but do have a tang that fits into a handle. Length does not include the tang.
Straight files are also known as pillar files.
Thin tapered files taper extremely toward the point to fit tight spaces. Also known as warding files.
Double Cut—Surface has two sets of diagonal teeth and is often used with heavier pressure than single cut for rapid material removal.
Edges with no teeth protect adjacent surfaces when filing.

Precision Half-Round Files


Made to exacting measurements to ensure smoothness, these files are used for finishing delicate and intricate parts. The half-round shape is good for concave, convex, and flat surfaces. The faces have two sets of diagonal teeth. Files do not include a handle but do have a tang that fits into a handle. Length does not include the tang.
For technical drawings and 3-D models, click on a part number.
Precision Round Files


Made to exacting measurements to ensure smoothness, these files are used for finishing delicate and intricate parts. They’re good for filing holes and concave surfaces and have two sets of diagonal teeth. Also known as rat-tail files. They do not include a handle but do have a tang that fits into a handle. Length does not include the tang.
For technical drawings and 3-D models, click on a part number.
Flexible Rectangular Diamond Files

Flex these files to access hard-to-reach spots. Diamond is the hardest, longest-lasting abrasive available and strong enough to file hard materials.

Needle Files













The small tip allows precise work in tight spots. These files do not include a handle but do have a tang that fits into a handle. Length does not include the tang.
Half-round files can be used on concave, convex, and flat surfaces.
Round files are good for filing holes and concave surfaces.
Triangular files have three filing surfaces to work in spots others can't.
Square files are good for slots, keyways, grooves, and corners.
Knife files get into tight angles, corners, and slots.
Double Cut—Surface has two sets of diagonal teeth and is often used with heavier pressure than single cut for rapid material removal.
Single Cut—Surface has one set of diagonal teeth and is often used with light pressure to slowly remove material and sharpen tool-cutting surfaces.

Flexible Diamond Needle Files

Wire-thin and easy to bend, these files reach tight spots in delicate workpieces, yet they're strong enough to shape hard metal, such as titanium. They're made of diamond—the hardest, longest-lasting abrasive available.
