What is a round file?

• A round file is a type of hand tool designed to smooth and deburr a range of materials and enlarge holes. Round files are ideal for working with jewellery and woodwork as the slimline design allows you to finish intricate details.

Difference between a round file and half round file?

• Both a round file and half round file are ideal for deburring semi circles and concave surfaces, however, due to the slimline and tapered design of a round file, circles can be enlarged and smoothed.

What is the coarseness of the file?

• RS PRO round files feature a second cut coarseness that allows for quick and efficient deburring and removal of material.

How to maintain your file

• In order to ensure your files remain sharp and work to their full potential, it is essential to regularly clean and maintain them. A file card or wire brush are recommended as they can remove debris and build up between the teeth of a file efficiently, without damaging them.
