File KREATOR Round File 200 mm working length, 320 mm total length, model KRTH23003

The KREATOR round file with a 200 mm working length and 320 mm total length is a hand tool designed for shaping, deburring and smoothing curved surfaces and holes in metal, wood and plastic. Constructed from hardened steel, the file provides controlled material removal and a consistent surface finish. Its rounded cross-section lets the user reach concave profiles and internal radii that flat or square files cannot access, making it a practical addition to workshop toolkits and on-site repair kits.

Advantages

This round file offers uniform tooth geometry for predictable cutting and reduced clogging on softer materials. The hardened steel body improves wear resistance and maintains cutting performance over time. The 200 mm working length balances reach and control for both detailed work and moderate material removal. The total length of 320 mm provides comfortable handling whether used with a separate handle or held directly by hand.

Suitable for

• Shaping and enlarging holes in metal, wood and plastic
• Finishing internal curves and concave profiles
• Deburring cut edges and smoothing welds
• On-site repair and maintenance tasks in workshops and construction

Key specifications

• Working length: 200 mm
• Total length: 320 mm
• Cross-section: round (cylindrical)
• Material: hardened steel
• Cut type: single- or double-cut tooth geometry suitable for shaping and finishing

How to use

Secure the workpiece before filing to prevent movement. Hold the file with both hands, one on the handle and the other guiding near the file tip, and apply even forward strokes in the direction of the cut. Use light pressure and more strokes for fine finishing; increase pressure for faster material removal while checking the profile frequently. For internal or concave shapes, rotate the file gently to follow the curve and avoid gouging. Clean the teeth regularly with a file card to maintain cutting efficiency.

Usage recommendations

Use a compatible handle for safer gripping and improved control. Wear eye protection when filing metal and consider light clamping to keep the workpiece stable. Match file cut type and coarseness to the material: coarser cuts for rapid stock removal, finer cuts for finishing.
