FAQs
Does this set include a handle?
This set is designed as a series of key files, which are traditionally used without separate handles for increased tactile feedback during delicate work.
Can these be used on wood?
While these files will cut wood, they are engineered specifically for metalworking and may clog quickly if used on resinous or soft woods.
What is the purpose of the textile bag?
The textile bag is designed for both protection and portability, keeping the files neatly indexed and preventing them from damaging one another during transport.
Are these files suitable for sharpening lawnmower blades?
These are precision key files intended for fine detail work; they are too small and delicate for heavy sharpening tasks like lawnmower blades.
Do these meet specific industry standards?
Yes, all files in this set conform to DIN 7283 standards for professional-grade key files.
Troubleshooting
Files are sliding off the material without cutting
The teeth may be clogged with metal filings. Use a file brush or wire file card to remove debris from the grooves.
Files showing signs of surface oxidation
Ensure the textile storage bag is kept in a dry area. Remove light oxidation using a mild abrasive pad and apply a thin layer of machine oil.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No specialized setup is required; the files are ready for immediate use upon removal from the packaging. To ensure maximum longevity, store the files in the provided textile roll when not in use to prevent the teeth from clashing against other hard steel tools. After use on metal, clear the filings from the file teeth using a dedicated wire file card. Avoid using water to clean the files, as this can induce rust; if the files come into contact with moisture, wipe them immediately with a light application of machine oil to protect the precision-cut teeth.
