American pattern files are large-sized files with uniform cuts. They are primarily used for fast, controlled removal of material for shaping, deburring, and finishing applications. Key files are small files for light, delicate filing tasks, especially in tool- and die-making. Also commonly used on locks and keys, they are well-suited for electricians, mechanics and anyone engaged in precision work. Shaped like a knife blade, this file is commonly used on slots and keyways and for acute angle work in die making. Sides are double cut and the thin edge is cut but the back is safe (uncut).
