Metal file MEGA 150×15.3×3.6 mm No. 2 — flat hand file for metalworking

Handheld metalworking file MEGA No. 2, dimensions 150 × 15.3 × 3.6 mm, is a compact flat file designed for shaping, deburring and finishing metal surfaces and edges. The flat profile provides a stable contact area for smoothing welds, fitting parts and correcting small imperfections on steel, aluminum and other common metals. Its compact length and narrow width make it suitable for precision tasks where control and access into tight spaces are required.

Advantages

The flat geometry ensures even material removal across a broad contact area while the fine tooth pattern supports controlled finishing. Small dimensions provide improved handling and accuracy during detail work, and the rigid cross-section resists twisting under normal hand pressure. The file is suitable for repeated workshop use and routine maintenance tasks where compact, reliable hand tools are needed.

Suitable for

• Shaping and deburring metal edges and joints
• Finishing small components and fittings
• Preparing mating surfaces for assembly and welding
• Maintenance and repair tasks in workshops and on-site

Key specifications

• Overall length: 150 mm
• Work width: 15.3 mm
• Thickness: 3.6 mm
• Profile: flat
• Cut type: single or double cut tooth pattern suitable for shaping and finishing
• Material compatibility: suitable for steel, aluminum and other common metals

How to use

Hold the file by the handle and place the flat face against the workpiece at a shallow angle. Apply even, controlled strokes away from your body, using the full length of the file for consistent material removal. Use light pressure on return strokes or lift the file to avoid dulling the teeth. For precision results, check progress frequently and remove burrs gradually until the desired fit or finish is achieved.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves. Secure the workpiece in a vise or clamp to prevent movement. Keep the file clean by brushing the teeth regularly to prevent clogging and to maintain cutting efficiency. Store in a dry place to avoid corrosion and protect the edge of the file from accidental damage.
