6pcs File Set

A standard 6-piece file set is designed to be a comprehensive starter kit. It usually includes the most common shapes to handle a variety of tasks: Flat File: The most common and versatile file. It’s rectangular in shape with teeth on both faces and edges. It’s used for general-purpose filing, smoothing flat surfaces, and squaring off edges. Half-Round File: As the name suggests, it has one flat side and one rounded side. This dual-purpose file is excellent for both flat surfaces and for shaping concave (curved inward) surfaces, such as enlarging holes. Round File: Also known as a “rat-tail” file, this file has a round cross-section. It is used for enlarging round holes, creating a smooth finish on circular openings, and shaping concave surfaces. Square File: This file has a square cross-section and is used for filing and shaping square holes, slots, and corners. Triangular File: Also called a “three-square” file, it has a triangular cross-section. It’s ideal for filing sharp corners, cleaning out slots, and sharpening saw teeth. Needle File or Warding File: A smaller, more specialized file used for intricate, precision work on delicate materials or in tight spaces, such as in jewelry or model making.
