Triangular Hand File MEGA 69513 — 150 x 7.1 mm triangular metal file

Triangular hand file MEGA 69513 — 150 x 7.1 mm triangular metal file is a compact, three-sided file designed for precise material removal in narrow, angled or hard-to-reach areas. Its triangular cross-section provides three cutting faces that are suitable for chamfering, deburring and shaping edges on metal, wood and plastic. The file is intended for finishing work, small repairs and maintenance of tools where accurate profile control is required.

Advantages

The triangular geometry delivers consistent contact with angled surfaces and internal corners, allowing controlled material removal and uniform chamfers. The small overall length and narrow width make the tool easy to handle and position in confined spaces. The file's tooth pattern is suitable for cross-material use on steel, non-ferrous metals, wood and plastics, providing predictable cutting action and reduced clogging when used appropriately. The robust construction ensures stable performance during light to moderate manual filing tasks.

Suitable for

• Chamfering and deburring internal corners and edges
• Shaping and finishing small metal parts and fittings
• Fitting and adjusting wooden joints in joinery
• Repairing and maintaining hand tools and small machinery parts
• Working in narrow grooves, slots and angled recesses

Key specifications

• Overall length: 150 mm
• Working width (across flats): 7.1 mm
• Cross-section: triangular with three cutting faces
• Material compatibility: steel, non-ferrous metals, wood, plastics
• Intended use: manual hand filing for finishing and small repair tasks

How to use

Secure the workpiece to prevent movement and choose an appropriate handle for the file if one is not already fitted. Hold the file with a steady forward stroke applying consistent pressure, and lift on the return stroke to avoid dulling the teeth. Use the triangular faces to access internal corners and angled surfaces, rotating the file as needed to use different cutting edges for even wear. Clean the teeth periodically with a file card or brush to maintain cutting efficiency and prevent clogging when working with softer materials.

Usage recommendations

For best results, match the file tooth pattern and stroke speed to the material being worked: slower, controlled strokes for harder metals and quicker, lighter strokes for wood and plastics. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves when filing. Store the file in a dry place and avoid contact with other tools to preserve the teeth.
