Forney Welding Half Round Bastard File

The Forney Half Round Bastard File is a machinist hand file for metalworking, fabrication, welding prep and general shop use. It follows the standard American pattern. Its half-round profile suits flat, concave and convex surfaces.

Key Features:

• Double-cut, coarse bastard cut: removes a moderate amount of stock quickly.
• Half-round shape: one side is rounded and the other is flat. This lets you work flat faces and curved surfaces with one tool.
• Sharp inside corners: suited to finishing sharp inside corners on steel.
• Machinist file: a hand file for shaping, deburring and smoothing metal edges.

This is a practical bench file for shaping, fitting and cleaning up metal parts. It also works for deburring and removing rough edges. Forney Industries is based in Fort Collins, Colorado, and has long supplied welding and workshop tools.
