Files

Files are hand-operated cutting tools widely used in metalworking, woodworking, and other applications. These tools are widely used for effective smoothening or removing rough/sharp cut edges, filing metals, shaping, and resizing a great range of materials with their efficient paralleled teeth. Apart from parallel teeth, these portable cutting tools feature a handle, blade, tang, and handle, each with effective cutting applications. They are made from a durable and case-hardened bar with different cross sections and abrasive surfaces to remove other material-designed files, like ceramic. Furthermore, file tools come in varied shapes and varieties distinguished by their blade types and materials being removed. Additionally, files are available in different sizes, and teeth spacing is ideal for cutting rougher/finer materials with smoother-cut applications.
