Description

The Vortex Square File is an 8-inch, second-cut file designed for precision filing and deburring of square and rectangular profiles. Its square cross-section lets you work into right-angled grooves, corners, and slots with confidence across metal, wood, and plastic.

Ideal for machinists, engineers, and tradespeople who demand clean internal corners and sharp, accurate edges, this tool delivers steady control for shaping and finishing intricate details on a wide range of projects.

  • Square cross-section for tight corners: The square shape lets you reach into right-angled grooves, corners, and slots with precision, delivering accurate deburring and shaping in metal, wood, and plastic.
  • 8-inch length with second-cut teeth: Provides steady control for longer runs, while the second-cut teeth balance material removal with a smoother finish for internal corners and edges.
  • Durable construction for long life: Built to resist wear and stand up to daily use in demanding environments, ensuring reliable performance across many jobs.

With the Vortex Square File, you’ll speed up precision work by delivering clean internal corners, crisp edges, and repeatable results. The square profile keeps material removal exactly where you want it, reducing rework and improving overall part quality. Its rugged construction minimizes downtime from tool wear, making it a dependable addition to any workshop—from metalworking benches to woodworking setups and plastic fabrication.
