Half-round metalworking file Profix RPSC 150 mm with wooden handle (model 69211)

The Profix RPSC half-round metalworking file 150 mm with a wooden handle is designed for manual metal shaping, deburring and finishing. Its half-round cross-section provides both a flat face for straight edges and a rounded face for internal curves and contours, making it a versatile hand tool for workshops and maintenance tasks. The wooden handle ensures a stable grip and tactile feedback during controlled filing operations.

Advantages

The combination of a half-round profile and medium-length 150 mm file blade allows precise material removal on a variety of surfaces, including flat surfaces and concave contours. The wooden handle offers secure ergonomic support for repetitive use and improved control compared with handleless files. The hardened and tempered steel teeth retain cutting performance and deliver consistent filing action over time.

Suitable for

• Shaping and fitting metal parts
• Deburring edges after cutting or machining
• Finishing internal curves and grooves
• Adjusting thin sheet metal and small components

Key specifications

• Blade length: 150 mm
• Cross-section: half-round (flat on one side, curved on the other)
• Material: hardened steel file blade
• Handle: solid wooden handle for manual operation
• Typical use: metalworking, maintenance and workshop tasks

How to use

Hold the wooden handle firmly in one hand and steady the workpiece with the other or with a vise. Use long, even strokes along the workpiece in the cutting direction of the file teeth, applying consistent pressure. For concave surfaces, use the rounded side of the half-round blade; for flat surfaces and edges, use the flat side. Regularly clear filings from the teeth with a file card or brush to maintain cutting efficiency and prevent clogging.

Usage recommendations

Wear eye protection when filing to prevent injury from flying particles. Secure the workpiece before filing, choose the appropriate stroke length and pressure for the material, and keep the file clean and dry to preserve its cutting life.
