Metal File Triangular NEO tools 37-422, 200 x 2 mm

Triangular metal file NEO tools 37-422 with working dimensions 200 x 2 mm is a hand file designed for precise filing, deburring and shaping of metal components. Its triangular cross-section allows access to internal corners, angled surfaces and narrow grooves where flat or round files cannot reach. The compact length and slim profile make it suitable for controlled material removal and finishing on small parts and assemblies.

Advantages

The triangular geometry provides three cutting faces for efficient metal removal and consistent edge conditioning. The slim 2 mm thickness enables work in tight spaces and narrow slots while the 200 mm working length balances reach with control. Hardened and cut teeth deliver repeatable performance for filing ferrous and some non-ferrous metals. The hand tool construction offers tactile feedback and precise control during finishing and fitting operations.

Suitable for

• Filing internal corners and angled joints on metal parts
• Deburring edges after cutting, drilling or milling
• Shaping and fitting small components in assemblies
• Working in narrow grooves, slots and recessed areas
• Maintenance and repair tasks that require precise material removal

Key specifications

• Working length: 200 mm
• Thickness (maximum blade thickness): 2 mm
• Cross-section: triangular with three cutting faces
• Material: hardened steel file surface suitable for metalwork
• Intended use: manual metal filing, deburring and shaping

How to use

Secure the workpiece to prevent movement before filing. Hold the file by the handle and apply steady strokes in the cutting direction, using moderate pressure and long, even passes for consistent results. Use the file faces to reach internal corners and angled surfaces, rotating the file as needed to select the appropriate face. Periodically clean the file teeth with a wire brush or file card to maintain cutting efficiency and remove metal filings. Match stroke length and pressure to the material and desired finish to avoid removing excess material.

Usage recommendations

Use personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves. For best results, pair this triangular file with files of different shapes and coarseness when progressing from rough shaping to fine finishing. Avoid using the file on hardened surfaces beyond its intended capacity to prevent premature wear; store the file dry and protected from impact to preserve its cutting edges.
