This durable and precision-made file is perfect for shaping both hard materials such as metal, carbon fiber and FRP, and softer materials such as normal plastic parts. It features a chrome coating which helps prevent the teeth from clogging with shavings. It has superb durability, lasting up to 3-6 times longer than standard steel files. This versatile half-round file joins flat (Item 74106) and round (Item 74107) products in the Temiya line-up.

Sprue cutters or a hobby knife — what do I actually need?
Cutters remove parts from the sprue cleanly; the knife trims the leftover nub and mould lines. You'll want both — they do different jobs.
What's the difference between single-blade and double-blade cutters?
Single-blade cutters shear against a flat anvil for an ultra-clean cut with less stress on the plastic; double-blade cutters are tougher for general work.
How do I keep tools in good condition?
Cut plastic only (never metal sprues or wire) with precision cutters, replace knife blades often, and keep files clear with a brass brush.
