File Gedore R93000006 Height 16 mm Weight 850 g

The Gedore R93000006 file is a precision hand tool intended for controlled material removal and finishing. With a 16 mm height and a total weight of 850 g, this file is balanced for both metalworking and woodworking tasks where accurate shaping and smooth surfaces are required. The tool's geometry and hardened filing surfaces provide consistent cut and predictable wear during repeated use.

Advantages

This Gedore file combines a compact cross-section with a durable construction that supports fine and medium filing operations. Its 16 mm height allows access to narrow slots and tight contours while the overall weight delivers steady handling and improved control. The hardened file surface resists deformation under pressure and maintains cutting performance over time.

Suitable for

• Removing burrs and shaping edges on metal parts
• Refining joints and contours in wooden components
• Deburring after cutting, drilling or machining
• Fine adjustments and finish work on small assemblies

Key specifications

• Tool type: hand file for precision filing tasks
• Height: 16 mm
• Weight: 850 g
• Material surface: hardened filing face suitable for metal and wood
• Intended use: shaping, deburring and finishing

How to use

Secure the workpiece to prevent movement and choose an appropriate filing stroke matching the material and desired finish. Hold the file with both hands—one at the handle and one guiding the tip—and apply even pressure on forward strokes if the file has a single-cut or double-cut pattern. Use long, smooth strokes along the workpiece for an even surface and check progress frequently to avoid overcutting. Clean the file teeth regularly with a brush or file card to maintain cutting efficiency.

Recommendations

For best results, pair the Gedore file with proper personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves. Match file coarseness to the task: coarser cuts for rapid material removal, finer cuts for finish work. Store the file in a dry place and avoid striking it against hard surfaces to preserve the cutting face.
