HALF ROUND SECOND FILE

A 12" half-round second file is a specialized hand tool commonly used in metalworking, woodworking, and other applications that require shaping and smoothing curved surfaces. As the name suggests, the file is half-round in shape, with one side featuring a flat surface and the other side having a rounded surface. The file is typically 12 inches in length, providing a good balance between maneuverability and coverage. The "second" cut refers to the coarseness or fineness of the file's teeth, with a second-cut file falling between a rough or coarse file and a smooth or fine file. 

The half-round second file is ideal for tasks such as rounding edges, filing concave surfaces, and removing material from curved or cylindrical objects. It allows for precise control and is commonly used by metalworkers for shaping and finishing metal components. Woodworkers also utilize this file for shaping wooden surfaces, creating smooth contours, and refining curved edges. With its versatile design and reliable cutting action, the 12" half-round second file is a valuable tool for achieving accurate and professional results in various projects.
