Round-File for Metal GEKO G40075 — 200 mm, half-round

Half-round metal file GEKO G40075 with a 200 mm working length is a hand tool designed for shaping, deburring and smoothing ferrous materials. The tool combines a flat and a curved face to allow both external and internal profiling. A hardened steel body and cross-cut tooth pattern deliver controlled material removal for metalworking, repair and finishing tasks.

Advantages

The GEKO half-round file provides uniform cutting action and stable control thanks to its hardened construction and cross-cut teeth. Its dual-profile geometry lets you work on flat surfaces, edges and concave contours without changing tools. The 200 mm working length balances reach and control for general-purpose metal filing, while the ergonomic shaft accepts standard handles for secure grip and leverage.

Suitable for

• Shaping and profiling steel and iron parts
• Deburring cut edges after sawing or drilling
• Smoothing weld seams and removing excess material
• Fitting and finishing metal components in repair work

Key specifications

• Tool type: half-round file with flat and curved faces
• Working length: 200 mm
• Material compatibility: steel, iron and other ferrous metals
• Tooth pattern: cross-cut for efficient material removal and reduced clogging
• Construction: hardened steel body for durability

How to use

Secure the workpiece in a vise or clamp to prevent movement. Fit a compatible handle to the file tang before use. Hold the file with one hand on the handle and the other lightly guiding the tip; apply even forward strokes with moderate pressure while lifting on the return stroke to preserve the teeth. Use the flat face for planar surfaces and edges, and the curved face to work internal radii and contours. Clean filings from the teeth regularly with a file card to maintain cutting efficiency.

Usage recommendations

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves. Avoid excessive side pressure that could bend the file or damage the workpiece. Store the file in a dry place and prevent contact with other tools to keep the cutting surfaces sharp.
