About This Product

The Crescent Nicholson American pattern, taper files without handles are perfect for filing gullets between saw teeth. The triangular shape makes accessing tight internal angles and squaring corners a breeze and the single-cut construction effortlessly smooths the edges of sheet metal.

Answer This Question

Monica, Yes, this would work, however, carbide is typically a coating, and this file will remove that, and would wear both the file and the scaper.
