6" Bastard Cut Three Square File with Ergo™ Handle - Bahco

The Bahco BAH11700612 6" Bastard Cut Three Square File with Ergo™ Handle is a professional-grade tool engineered for precise material removal in the challenging, confined, and angled spaces common in automotive and industrial applications. Its unique three-square profile and aggressive bastard cut deliver efficient stock removal from materials such as steel and cast iron. This professional-grade file provides the control and durability technicians and mechanics rely on for demanding tasks, ensuring reliable performance during demanding work.

Key Features

• Three-Square Profile: Specifically designed with an equilateral triangular shape, tapered towards the tip, to effectively access internal corners, square and triangular openings, and narrow slots that are typically inaccessible to other file shapes. This design also makes it suitable for filing acute angles and cleaning out square corners.
• Bastard Cut: Features aggressive tooth spacing, providing efficient stock removal for rough shaping, deburring, and efficient edge cleanup before final finishing stages. This cut is an intermediate grade, offering a balance between rapid material removal and a surface that doesn't immediately require fine finishing.
• 6" Length: This compact size offers excellent control for detailed work on smaller components, such as intricate vehicle parts, while providing sufficient reach for typical bench and chassis tasks.
• Bahco Ergo™ Handle: Developed according to the scientific ERGO™ process, the ergonomically contoured, two-component non-slip grip minimizes hand fatigue during extended use and ensures positive control, even in oily or dirty professional environments. This design protects hand muscles and provides the sensory feedback needed for precise control.
• Hardened Steel Construction: Built for durability, this construction ensures exceptional tooth sharpness and profile accuracy are maintained through daily professional use, guaranteeing consistent and long-lasting performance.

Applications

• Dressing and deburring internal corners on brackets, flanges, and fabricated mounts in both automotive and industrial settings.
• Cleaning and fitting square holes, keyways, and small slots in critical components like transmission, steering, and suspension parts.
• Sharpening scrapers and specialty cutting tools that possess acute or triangular edges.
• Precisely breaking edges and fitting small metal parts during extensive repair, fabrication, and maintenance operations.
