Files set YATO YT-6161 — 7-piece flat, half-round, oval, round, square, triangular files 160 mm (4 mm width)

YATO YT-6161 is a 7-piece files set designed for shaping, fitting and finishing metal components. The set contains flat, half-round, oval, round, square and triangular files, each 160 mm long and 4 mm wide, suitable for deburring, smoothing edges and fine adjustment of parts in workshop and maintenance environments. The files are intended for general metalworking tasks where controlled material removal and surface refinement are required.

Advantages

The set provides a range of cross-sections for versatile work on profiles, grooves and curved surfaces. Uniform length and width across the set make it easy to switch between files while maintaining consistent reach and control. Hardened and tempered steel teeth maintain cutting performance for repeated use, and the compact set covers common filing needs without requiring individual purchases. The files’ dimensions support both coarse shaping and detailed finish work depending on the chosen file profile.

Suitable for

• Removing burrs and sharp edges on metal parts
• Shaping and fitting components in workshops and repair shops
• Refining welds, joints and machined surfaces
• Work on profile edges, grooves and curved surfaces

Key specifications

• Set composition: flat, half-round, oval, round, square and triangular files (7 pieces)
• Overall file length: 160 mm
• Working width: approximately 4 mm
• Material: hardened steel teeth suitable for metal filing
• Tooth type: general-purpose filing teeth for shaping and finishing

How to use

Select the file cross-section that matches the profile you need to work on. Secure the workpiece in a vice or clamp to prevent movement. Use steady, even strokes away from the body, applying moderate pressure on the forward stroke and easing pressure on the return stroke to preserve the teeth. Keep the file clean of swarf to maintain cutting efficiency and inspect the workpiece frequently to avoid over-removal of material.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves. For best results, combine coarse shaping with a suitable sequence of files from larger to smaller cross-sections, and finish with light strokes. Store the set in a dry place to prevent corrosion and keep files separated to avoid damaging the cutting edges.
