Material-Removing Files for Aluminum

Available12 products
Specialized cutting teeth on these files abrade aluminum without clogging and produce better results than files not dedicated to aluminum filing. They break up chips and swarf to keep the file clear and reduce chattering to avoid over filing. Files for aluminum remove material to smooth and shape castings, sheets, bars, and other workpieces. These American-pattern files abrade material more aggressively than Swiss-pattern files used for precision filing and finer finishes.

Double-Cut Half-Round Files

Double-Cut Half-Round Files

Half-round files abrade material from flat or round surfaces. Their flat face makes full contact with level surfaces and linear edges, and their convex face conforms with rounded grooves, holes, and edges. Double-cut teeth on both faces of these files make aggressive cuts. Each face has two crisscrossing sets of diagonal rows of teeth that slant in opposite directions to remove material more quickly and leave a rougher finish than single-cut teeth.
