Half-round file KREATOR KRTH23004 — 200 mm blade length, 320 mm overall length

KREATOR half-round file KRTH23004 features a 200 mm hardened blade and a total length of 320 mm. The tool combines a flat and a rounded filing surface in one implement, allowing controlled material removal on both planar and concave areas. It is intended for shaping, smoothing and deburring work on metal, wood and similar materials where accuracy and a uniform finish are required.

Advantages

The half-round profile delivers dual functionality — the flat side for straight edges and broad surfaces, and the rounded side for concave contours and radii. A 200 mm blade provides good reach while the 320 mm overall length ensures comfortable two‑hand control during longer operations. The hardened steel blade maintains tooth geometry for consistent cutting performance and efficient stock removal. The design supports precise finishing and reduces the need to switch between separate flat and round files.

Suitable for

• Shaping and smoothing metal parts and fittings
• Refining wooden edges and curved profiles
• Deburring cut edges and opened holes
• Hobby and model-making tasks requiring fine material removal
• General workshop tasks where both flat and concave filing are needed

Key specifications

• Blade length: 200 mm
• Overall length: 320 mm
• Profile: half-round (flat + rounded surface)
• Material: hardened file steel
• Cut type: general-purpose file teeth suitable for shaping and finishing
• Ergonomics: handle-compatible overall length for stable grip and control

How to use

Secure the workpiece before filing to prevent movement and ensure safety. Use the flat side of the file for straight edges, flat faces and to remove larger amounts of material with long, even strokes away from the body. Use the rounded side to work inside concave contours, channels or to form radii. Apply consistent pressure on the forward stroke and lift on the return stroke to maintain tooth effectiveness and avoid clogging. Periodically clear the teeth with a file card or brush to keep cutting action efficient.

Usage recommendations

For general metalworking, pair the file with appropriate clamping and safety equipment such as a vice and protective gloves. For woodworking and hobby projects, select a suitable cut grade (bastard, second, etc.) depending on the required removal rate and finish. Store the file in a dry place and avoid contact with other tools to protect the teeth.
