Round metal file 200 mm NEO tools 37-222 – round rasp for metalworking, 200 mm length

Round metal file 200 mm NEO tools 37-222 is a 200 mm long round rasp intended for shaping, deburring and finishing metal surfaces. The tool is designed for use on curved profiles, internal radii and holes where a flat file cannot reach. Its cylindrical cross-section and uniformly cut teeth allow gradual material removal and controlled edge refinement on workpieces made of steel, cast iron and non-ferrous metals within hand-filing capacities.

Advantages

The round rasp delivers even stock removal along curved surfaces and in confined spaces, enabling precise finishing of contours and internal grooves. Its hardened steel body maintains tooth geometry under normal workshop use and offers consistent filing performance. The 200 mm length balances reach and control, making it suitable for both detailed finishing and preparatory shaping.

Suitable for

• Shaping and smoothing internal radii and holes in metal components
• Deburring edges of drilled or punched holes
• Fitting and finishing curved joints and contours
• Automotive repair, maintenance and small metalworking projects

Key specifications

• Type: round rasp (cylindrical file)
• Working length: 200 mm
• Material compatibility: steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals (hand-filing)
• Cut: single-cut or double-cut tooth pattern suitable for metal finishing
• Handle interface: designed for secure mounting of a standard file handle

How to use

Secure the workpiece in a vise or fixture to prevent movement during filing. Choose a comfortable handle and hold the file with both hands—one at the handle and one guiding the tip—to maintain steady pressure. Use long, even strokes away from your body, rotating the file as needed to follow the curve of the workpiece. Remove filings periodically from the teeth with a file card or wire brush to preserve cutting efficiency and avoid clogging.

Usage recommendations

For best results, match the file cut to the task: use single-cut for smoothing and finishing, and double-cut for faster stock removal. Apply moderate pressure and maintain consistent stroke length to avoid uneven material removal. Wear eye protection and gloves as appropriate, and clean the rasp after use to extend its service life.
