PFERD TOOLS 15308140 – Diamond escapement file half-round 140mm for small geometries on hard materials

Diamond files and sheets are used for tasks where conventional files fail due to the hardness of the material being worked on.
Diamond files and sheets are also used for processing hardened steel.
The working temperatures are so low that no chemical wear occurs.
This allows the higher hardness of the diamond grain to be exploited for a longer tool life.
Diamond escapement files are used on very small shapes in tool making and precision mechanics.
They have a forged shank which allows use without an additional handle.
Grit size D 46 provides ultra-fine surface qualities.

Recommendations for use:
Apply only slight pressure to the file, especially in workpiece edge areas.
Loaded diamond files can be cleaned in kerosene or anti-static plastic cleaner with a file brush.
Alternatively, ultrasonic cleaning is also possible.
Often it will suffice to knock the file against a hard object.
Avoid using grease!
