Lima Bahco 168-8-6.3-3P 8" taglio 3P per metallo e legno

The Bahco 168-8-6.3-3P 8 inch 3P cut file is a hand tool engineered for precision filing on both metal and wood surfaces. Its 8-inch length offers a balance between reach and control, while the 3P cut tooth pattern is optimized for efficient material removal and a consistent surface finish. The tool is manufactured by BAHCO and is intended for tasks where accuracy and reliable abrasion performance are required.

Advantages

This file provides uniform cutting action across the working surface, helping to reduce clogging and maintain cutting efficiency. The 3P cut geometry allows for faster stock removal than fine-cut files while still producing a manageable surface texture. Its length and rigidity support controlled filing strokes, contributing to repeatable results on edges, joints, and shaped parts.

Suitable for

• Shaping and deburring metal edges and welds
• Smoothing and profiling wooden parts and edges
• Fitting and finishing tasks in metalworking and carpentry
• General maintenance and repair where controlled material removal is needed

Key specifications

• Overall length: 8 inches (approx. 200 mm)
• Cut type: 3P cut (medium-coarse tooth pattern for efficient removal)
• Material applicability: suitable for ferrous and non-ferrous metals and wood
• Handle interface: designed for secure mounting of compatible handles (handle not included)
• Typical use: hand-operated filing with steady strokes

How to use

Secure a comfortable handle to the file if not already fitted, and clamp the workpiece firmly in a vise or other stable fixture. Use even, forward strokes maintaining consistent pressure; lift the file on the return stroke to avoid dulling the teeth. For metalwork, remove burrs with controlled passes and inspect the surface frequently to avoid over-filing. For wood, follow the grain where possible to achieve a smoother finish and reduce tear-out.

Recommendations

Clean the file teeth regularly with a file card to prevent clogging and preserve cutting performance. Wear appropriate eye and hand protection during use. Store the file in a dry place and avoid contact with other tools to prevent tooth damage.
