File / rasp YATO YT-85035, length 250 mm, 1 pc

YATO YT-85035 is a 250 mm hand file/rasp designed for controlled material removal and finishing on wood, metal and plastic. Supplied as a single-piece tool, it combines a hardened working section with an ergonomic polypropylene handle to support shaping, deburring and profiling tasks in workshop and on-site environments. The compact overall length makes the file easy to manoeuvre for detailed fitting and edge work while the additional handle option improves stability during sharpening operations.

Advantages

The working part is made from bearing steel to provide consistent cutting performance and wear resistance. A 4.0 mm diameter section and a tooth pattern suited to general-purpose rasping enable effective removal of material without excessive clogging on softer substrates. The polypropylene handle and grip offer insulation and a comfortable hold, while the additional handle improves precision and control when used for sharpening applications at specified cutting angles.

Suitable for

• Shaping and deburring wooden components
• Removing burrs and blending edges on metal parts
• Profiling and trimming plastic parts
• Sharpening 3/8" saw chains at 30° and 35° angles
• Precision finishing and fitting work in workshops and on-site repairs

Key specifications

• Total length: 250 mm
• Working diameter: 4.0 mm
• Material of working section: bearing steel
• Handle material: polypropylene with grip
• Suitable chain pitch: 3/8"
• Designed sharpening angles: 30° and 35°
• Includes an additional handle for improved comfort and control

How to use

Secure the workpiece before starting and select the appropriate sharpening angle if working on a saw chain. Hold the file by the polypropylene handle and, where available, the additional handle to maintain a steady two-handed grip. Use smooth, even strokes along the material surface, applying consistent pressure and checking progress frequently. For chain sharpening, follow the angle markings and make equal passes on each tooth to preserve an even cutting profile. Clean the file teeth after use to prevent buildup and maintain cutting efficiency.

Usage recommendations

Use protective gloves and eye protection when filing or sharpening. Store the file in a dry place to prevent corrosion of the bearing steel working section, and avoid excessive side pressure that could damage the tool or the workpiece.
