Machinist File - Flat
OverviewFlat Machinist file is rectangular in cross section and slightly taper towards point. This file is available in bastard, 2nd cut and smooth cut geometry. This file is used by machinists, machinery builders, ship & engine builders, by repairmen and others who require rapid removal of metal. It is mainly used for stock removal, but it is also used in workshops, maintenance shops and for almost all type of filing operations. It is very popular in DIY segment too. These flat files can be used as a substitute to sharpen tools with blades or for deburring. It is ideal for use on wood, metal and plastic. It is manufactured as per IS 1931:2000, BS498:1960 & GGG- F 325:1985.
