File for Saws Fapil-Chadex RPPe triangular thin 200 mm

Fapil-Chadex RPPe triangular thin 200 mm file is a hand file with a triangular cross-section and a slim profile designed for detailed work on saw blades, metal and wood. Its 200 mm length provides a compact working tool that reaches tight corners and tooth gullets while allowing controlled material removal. The file’s angular faces and thin taper are intended for shaping, deburring and sharpening small parts where precision is required.

Advantages

The triangular geometry gives three distinct cutting faces for filing corners and between teeth, while the thin body improves access into narrow gaps. The compact 200 mm length balances reach and control, enabling steady hand movements during sharpening or finishing. A uniform tooth pattern ensures consistent cutting action across the surface, minimizing chatter and uneven removal when used with steady pressure.

Suitable for

• Sharpening and dressing saw teeth and gullets
• Deburring small metal parts and edges
• Finishing and shaping wooden components in tight spaces
• General small repair and maintenance tasks requiring precise material removal

Key specifications

• Shape: triangular cross-section for corner and gap filing
• Length: 200 mm working length suitable for compact tasks
• Thickness: thin profile for access into narrow spaces
• Cut: fine-toothed pattern for controlled, precise material removal
• Material: hardened steel filing surface for wear resistance

How to use

Secure the workpiece firmly before filing to prevent movement and ensure safety. Hold the file by the handle and support the tip with the other hand, applying steady forward strokes along the surface to be filed; triangular files are typically used on the forward stroke for effective cutting. Use light, even pressure and check progress frequently to avoid over-filing. When sharpening saw teeth, align the file with the tooth angle and work each tooth uniformly to maintain consistent geometry.

Usage recommendations

Use protective gloves and eye protection when filing. Clean the file regularly with a file card or brush to remove filings and maintain cutting performance. Store the file in a dry place to prevent corrosion and avoid using excessive force that could damage the file or the workpiece.
