Product Details
The Crescent Nicholson 8 in Round Single Cut Bastard File is an American pattern file built for filing circular openings and concave surfaces on most metals. Its full circular cross-section with teeth around the entire circumference provides consistent cutting contact in areas a rectangular file simply cannot reach. Single-cut construction delivers controlled, light material removal with cleaner, smoother edges than coarser patterns. The slight taper toward the file’s point improves access in slots and confined spaces, making it a versatile addition to any metalworking or fabrication toolkit.
