File/rasp Vorel 25163, length 200 mm, single piece

Vorel 25163 file/rasp, length 200 mm, single piece is a compact hand tool designed for precise material removal and shaping on metals, wood and plastics depending on the selected cut. Its 200 mm working length provides control and access in confined or detailed areas, making it suitable for repair tasks, hobby projects and fine finishing. Supplied as one piece, the tool combines a tapered square profile with a dual-cut surface for efficient stock removal and a two-component plastic handle for comfortable grip.

Advantages

The convergent square profile and double-cut face deliver fast yet controllable material removal and permit both coarse shaping and finer finishing without frequent tool changes. The two-component plastic handle improves ergonomics and reduces hand fatigue during extended manual use. Its compact 200 mm size enables access to narrow spaces and detailed work where larger files would be impractical.

Suitable for

• Shaping and resizing metal components in small repair jobs
• Deburring and edge finishing on wooden or plastic parts
• Model making, hobby and craft projects requiring precise profiling
• Detail work in tight or recessed areas

Key specifications

• Overall working length: 200 mm
• Profile: square, convergent (tapered)
• Cut type: double-cut surface for universal filing
• Handle: two-component plastic for improved grip
• Pack contents: single piece per pack

How to use

Select the Vorel 25163 file/rasp appropriate for the material and task, secure the workpiece, and use steady, controlled strokes along the work surface. For metal, maintain consistent pressure and use the entire length of the file to avoid uneven wear. For wood and plastics, reduce pressure to prevent gouging and use lighter passes for fine finishing. Clean metal filings from the teeth with a file card or brush and periodically inspect the handle and file surface for wear before continued use.

Usage recommendations

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves. Use a vise or clamps to secure the workpiece, avoid side-loading the file, and store the tool dry to prevent corrosion. Choose the double-cut square profile when a balance of material removal speed and control is required; switch to a finer file only when a smoother finish is needed.
