File (half-round) Profix RPSC 150 mm with wooden handle, model 69203

Profix half-round file RPSC 150 mm with wooden handle, model 69203, is a compact hand tool for shaping, smoothing and deburring metal, wood and plastic surfaces. The half-round profile provides both a flat face and a curved surface, allowing controlled material removal on edges, contours and internal curves. With an overall filing length of 150 mm, this file is intended for detail work, repair tasks and fitting operations where accuracy and tactile control are required.

Advantages

The half-round geometry combines flat and concave filing in a single tool, reducing the need to switch files when working on mixed profiles. A wooden handle offers a secure and comfortable grip for longer use and precise control. The 150 mm length makes the file easy to manoeuvre in tight spaces and well suited for fine finishing and trimming. The hardened and tempered steel surface ensures consistent cutting performance and wear resistance during normal workshop use.

Suitable for

• Shaping and smoothing metal edges and small castings
• Deburring holes and internal curves in metal and plastic
• Detail sanding and fitting of wooden components
• Precision repair and fitting work in workshops and DIY projects

Key specifications

• Profile: half-round (flat and curved faces)
• Filing length: 150 mm
• Material: hardened and tempered steel file surface
• Handle: wooden, ergonomic shape for manual use
• Typical applications: metal, wood and plastic

How to use

Secure the workpiece before filing to prevent movement. Hold the file by the wooden handle with one hand and guide the tip with the other for stable, even strokes. Use long, even strokes away from the body, applying moderate pressure on the forward stroke and lighter pressure on the return if using a single-cut or double-cut file technique. For curved surfaces and internal radii, use the rounded face of the file; for flat surfaces and edges, use the flat face. Periodically clean the file teeth with a file card or brush to maintain cutting efficiency.

Usage recommendations

Choose the half-round Profix RPSC 150 mm for detailed finishing and small shaping tasks. Match the file cut (fine, medium or coarse) to the material and stage of work: coarser cuts remove material faster, finer cuts produce smoother surfaces. Store the file dry and keep the wooden handle free from oils and solvents to preserve grip and prevent handle degradation.
