    Why Choose the BAHCO 5-Piece Engineers’ File Set?

    Five Versatile File Profiles

    The combination of hand, square, half-round and round files provides a practical selection for working on flat surfaces, edges, corners, holes and curved components.

    Bastard & Second-Cut Options

    Four bastard-cut files provide a coarser cutting action for material removal and shaping, while the second-cut hand file allows more controlled filing and surface finishing.

    Comfortable Soft-Grip Handles

    Each file features a fitted soft-grip rubber handle designed for comfortable handling and controlled filing, with an integrated hanging hole for convenient storage.

    Practical Roll-Up Storage

    The supplied plastic wallet keeps the five files together and organised, making the assortment convenient for workshop storage and transportation.

    Application & Instructions

    1. Select the appropriate file profile for the material and surface being worked.
    2. Use a bastard-cut file for initial shaping or material removal, or the second-cut hand file for more controlled finishing.
    3. Secure the workpiece firmly in a suitable vice or clamping arrangement.
    4. Ensure the file handle is correctly fitted and secure before use.
    5. Apply smooth, controlled forward strokes while maintaining the appropriate filing angle.
    6. Inspect the workpiece regularly to avoid removing excessive material.
    7. Clean the file teeth using a suitable file card or brush after use.
    8. Return the files to their roll-up storage wallet and secure the tie.

    Important: Always use a file with a correctly fitted handle. Wear suitable eye protection and secure the workpiece before filing. Do not use engineers’ files as levers, punches or striking tools.
