PFERD TOOLS precision files are expected to deliver nothing less than outstanding geometric accuracy, cutting performance and tool life.
Thanks to their exact geometry, precision files are ideal for working on the smallest, hard-to-reach contours.
Advantages
- Particularly suitable for work on small and delicate workpieces.
- Wide range of highly precise cuts for numerous applications in precision machining.
- Exact geometry.
Where are precision files used?
Precision files are predominantly used when utmost precision and surface quality are called for.
Practical examples include:
- Tool and mould-making: refining of tools for punching, forming and forging and embossing of series items.
- Precision mechanics: precise filing of very small and delicate components (e.g. in the watch making sector).
- Artistic craftwork: reworking of workpieces (e.g. ornaments, carved woodwork or sculptures).
What cuts are available for precision files?
Precision files from PFERD TOOLS come with a Swiss cut. The cuts range from very coarse (00) to very fine (4):
