Reach inside larger openings and refine curved surfaces with the Benchmark Abrasives 10" Round File (Bastard Cut). Its round profile suits hole enlargement, pipe-opening cleanup, and hand filing of concave features. The bastard-cut grade provides relatively coarse cutting action for efficient stock removal, while the longer 10" nominal size offers added reach and filing surface for larger workpieces, fabrication, maintenance, and repair applications.

Product Features
Round profile is suited for circular openings, pipe interiors, and concave surfaces.
Bastard-cut grade provides coarse cutting action for efficient material removal.
Useful for enlarging holes and refining internal contours.
10" nominal length provides greater reach and filing surface for larger workpieces.
Suitable for shaping, fitting, deburring, and general maintenance work.
Designed for manual hand filing.
Applications & Performance
The 10" Round File is intended primarily for circular openings, pipe interiors, and concave work. Its round profile allows controlled material removal in areas where flat-profile files are not well suited.
Common applications include:
Enlarging circular openings
Filing inside pipe and tubing
Shaping concave surfaces
Radius and contour work
Deburring internal edges
Fitting and adjustment
General maintenance and repair work
For ordinary filing, apply controlled pressure on the forward stroke and reduce pressure during the return stroke.
Safety Tips
Secure the workpiece on a bench or in a vise instead of holding it in the palm of your hand.
Wear appropriate eye protection and other PPE required for the material and task.
Use a securely fitted handle on a tanged file. Inspect the file and handle before use, and replace damaged handles.
Never strike a file or use it as a pry bar, hammer, punch, or other impact tool.
Keep the teeth clean and remove trapped chips or pinning as needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
A 10" round file is designed primarily for holes, pipe interiors, concave surfaces, and other internal curves. It is useful for enlarging openings, refining radiused features, and removing material from curved internal surfaces.
Bastard cut refers to a relatively coarse file grade intended for efficient stock removal. It is coarser than second cut.
No. The round profile is primarily intended for circular and concave work. A flat or half-round file is generally better suited when the primary work surface is flat.
This is a general-purpose round file for holes and inside curves. For chainsaw cutters, choose a dedicated sharpening file matched to the chain manufacturer’s specified size and shape.
No. This is a hand file for manual use. It is not designed to mount in an air saw or powered filing tool.
Apply controlled cutting pressure on the forward stroke and reduce pressure on the return stroke. This helps maintain effective cutting action while limiting unnecessary wear.
Metal chips trapped between the teeth are commonly called pinning. Remove embedded chips periodically to help maintain cutting performance.
Choose the 10" size for larger workpieces or when you need more reach than a shorter file offers. Check that the file profile fits the area you are working on.
