KAMABOKO File (Half-round File) 5mm

No file grain on the arch part prevents scratching the inverted edge side!

Since there are no file grain on the arch part and the arch surface is narrower than the filing surface, filing up to the very last edge is possible without scratching the inverted edge side.
Please note, however, that the inverted edge angle that files without scratching the side ranges from 180° to 90°.

The arched shape increases the filing strength and minimizes warping!
Thanks to its resistance to warping, the force of the hand firmly transmits to the ‘surface’ of the file.
You can concentrate only on the angle at which the file meets the cutting surface without excessive force, which allows for more accurate surface grinding.

Designed with a short grip for natural and light filing!
The grip portion is short and thin to prevent excessive force from being applied.
The short, thin grip reduces the risk of grinding into a snarled shape and makes it easier to sharpen flat.

5 mm width enables filing in tiny and narrow spaces and is perfect for a detailed surface finishing process!

Clean cutting surface thanks to the sharp tip of the file blade with a single grit!

⚠NOTE
・Please wear protective glasses for safety.
・Exclusively for use with plastics. Please remove cutting dust frequently to prevent clogging.
・Using strong force to scrape will cause clogging of the file. Please use light force by taking advantage of the weight of the file itself.
・Please do not use a metal brush to remove shavings. It may damage the file grain and reduce the cutting capability.
・The file section is steel-made and tends to rust with time. Regular maintenance with rust preventive oil is desirable, as rust reduces cutting capability.
