File/rasp YATO YT-62331, length 300 mm, 1 pc

YATO YT-62331 file/rasp with a 300 mm working length is a flat, tapered, three-cut metal file supplied as a single piece. Designed for controlled material removal and surface finishing, this hand file is suitable for use on metal, wood and plastic. The three-cut tooth pattern provides efficient stock removal while allowing a smoother finish than coarse rasps, and the three-component handle offers ergonomic grip and control during extended work.

Advantages

The flat, tapered profile and three-cut teeth deliver a balance of cutting speed and surface quality, making it effective for shaping and deburring. With a 300 mm working length the file covers more surface per stroke than shorter files, improving efficiency on larger workpieces. The three-component handle enhances handling comfort and reduces slipping, supporting more precise filing operations and safer use in workshop or construction environments.

Suitable for

• Shaping and smoothing metal edges and profiles.
• Removing burrs and excess material after cutting or welding.
• Trimming and finishing wooden or plastic parts where controlled stock removal is required.
• General repair, maintenance and fabrication tasks in workshop and construction settings.

Key specifications

• Type: flat, tapered metal file with three-cut tooth pattern.
• Working length: 300 mm.
• Cut: three-cut (cross-cut) for faster material removal with finer finish than single-cut rasps.
• Handle: ergonomic three-component handle for improved grip and control.
• Material compatibility: suitable for use on steel, soft metals, wood and plastic.

How to use

Secure the workpiece firmly in a vise or clamp to prevent movement. Hold the handle with one hand and support the file near the tip with the other hand for controlled strokes. Apply even, moderate pressure on the forward stroke and lift or reduce pressure on the return stroke to avoid dulling the teeth. File along the workpiece in long, smooth strokes following the shape you need; use the tapered end for detail work or tighter areas. Keep the file clean by brushing out filings regularly to maintain cutting efficiency.

Usage recommendations

For effective results, match the file cut to the task: use the three-cut file for faster stock removal and a reasonably smooth finish. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and work gloves. After use, store the file in a dry place and avoid contact with other tools to prevent tooth damage.
