When cutting or milling hard materials, metal workpieces, after drilling or boring holes, there is often a need for additional surface treatment. On a large plane, this is easy to do with an electric sander. What if space is limited or the geometry of the part does not allow the use of technology?
A file will help to do this. The various shape of the working part: round, triangular, semicircular, square or flat, will help to cope with a detail of any configuration. The different size of the teeth of the notch allows you to finely bring the part to the condition, ensuring high processing accuracy. It all depends only on the skill of the locksmith.
