American pattern files are large-sized files with uniform cuts. They are primarily used for fast, controlled removal of material for shaping, deburring, and finishing applications. Key files are small files for light, delicate filing tasks, especially in tool- and die-making. Also commonly used on locks and keys, they are well-suited for electricians, mechanics and anyone engaged in precision work. This popular machinist file is designed for enlarging circular holes or rounded grooves that are too small for a half round file. It tapers toward the point making it adaptable for use on various size holes.
