Metal files set Top Tools 140 mm, 6 pieces (06A025) for metalworking

Set of six Top Tools metal files, each 140 mm long, designed for manual filing and shaping of metal surfaces. The assortment includes multiple file profiles to cover common metalworking needs such as deburring, smoothing and finishing edges, small fittings and details in workshop, hobby and repair tasks. Files are intended for hand use and complement power tools when precision finishing or touch-up is required.

Advantages

The set combines different cross-sections and cut types to handle a range of metalworking operations without the need to purchase individual files. Compact 140 mm length offers good control for detailed work and access in confined spaces. Durable hardened steel construction provides consistent filing performance and long service life under normal hand-use conditions. Standard hand-file geometry allows predictable material removal and surface finish.

Suitable for

• Deburring sharp edges on cut metal sheets and pipes
• Smoothing weld seams and joints
• Shaping and fitting small metal components
• Detail work on hobby metal projects and model making
• On-site maintenance and repair tasks requiring hand finishing

Key specifications

• Set contents: 6 metal files with different profiles
• Individual file length: 140 mm
• Material: hardened steel file blades
• Cut types: assorted cuts for rough to fine material removal
• Intended use: manual filing of ferrous and non-ferrous metals

How to use

Select the file profile appropriate for the task and secure the workpiece. Hold the file with both hands—one on the handle or tang and the other at the toe—to maintain steady pressure and control. Use long, even forward strokes for material removal and lighter return strokes where the file teeth do not cut. Check progress frequently and switch to a finer-cut file from the set to refine the surface and achieve the desired finish. Clean the file teeth regularly with a wire brush to avoid clogging and reduce wear.

Usage recommendations

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves. Use a vise or clamp to secure small parts. Avoid excessive force and work at a consistent angle to extend the life of the files. Store the set in a dry place to prevent corrosion of the file blades.
