{"product_id":"nicholson-hand-file-carded-american-pattern-double-cut-half-round-coarse-8-length","title":"Nicholson 21857LN Carded Hand File, American Pattern, Double Cut, Half-Round, Coarse, 8\" Length","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product-description\"\u003eThe Nicholson half-round hand file has double-cut American pattern teeth on both the round and flat sides for use on curved and flat surfaces. The double-cut teeth provide rapid material removal. The tang can be used with an optional handle for secure gripping (sold separately). \n\nHand files are used to remove material and smooth and shape workpieces. They have forward-facing cutting teeth and cut when pushed over either a stationary or rotating workpiece. Single-cut teeth have single rows cut diagonally across the width of the file. Double-cut teeth have two sets of rows cut in opposite directions. American pattern files have three coarseness grades. Coarse, also known as bastard cut, is suitable for efficient, heavy material removal where finish is not a concern. Medium, also known as second cut, offers average material removal and finish quality. Fine, also known as smooth cut, provides the smoothest finish. Swiss pattern files have eight coarseness grades, from 00 (coarse), 0 (medium), and 1 to 6 (fine to finest), offering a smoother, more precise finish than equivalent American pattern files.\n\nNicholson manufactures hand tools and power tool accessories. The company is headquartered in Sparks, MD.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-features\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHalf-round shape has one round side and one flat side for use on curved and flat surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmerican pattern file for non-precision material removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble-cut teeth on both flat and round sides for rapid removal of material\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTang for use with an optional handle (sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8\" half round bastard file\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmerican pattern file is rounded on 1 side and flat on the opposite\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse file on concave, convex and flat surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Crescent","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52565066809660,"sku":"21857LN","price":16.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0771\/8112\/4924\/files\/41NkQRB1O_L.jpg?v=1766157008","url":"https:\/\/www.contractortool.com\/es\/products\/nicholson-hand-file-carded-american-pattern-double-cut-half-round-coarse-8-length","provider":"Contractor Tool Supply, a Vera Tools company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
