Beta 1718D8/M Bastard Cut Half-Round File without Handle, 8"

Brand: Beta Tools

This half-round file from Beta Tools is designed to remove material quickly, with minimal clogging. The double-cut style has diagonal ridges cut in two directions, leaving diamond-shaped teeth. The "bastard cut" or "rough cut" has coarser teeth than the "second cut" (and much coarser teeth than a "smooth" file). Both the flat face and the rounded face have the same coarse teeth. Measures 8" long not including the handle tang. Sold individually.

Handle sold separately.
