The file tapers slightly toward the point to ease access into grooves. The file has single-cut American pattern teeth for sharpening and deburring, and square edges for filing sharp corners. The tang can be used with an optional handle for secure gripping (sold separately). Hand files are used to remove material and smooth and shape workpieces. They have forward-facing cutting teeth and cut when pushed over either a stationary or rotating workpiece. Single-cut teeth have single rows cut diagonally across the width of the file. Double-cut teeth have two sets of rows cut in opposite directions. American pattern files have three coarseness grades. Coarse, also known as bastard cut, is suitable for efficient, heavy material removal where finish is not a concern. Medium, also known as second cut, offers average material removal and finish quality. Fine, also known as smooth cut, provides the smoothest finish. Swiss pattern files have eight coarseness grades, from 00 (coarse), 0 (medium), and 1 to 6 (fine to finest), offering a smoother, more precise finish than equivalent American pattern files.Nicholson manufactures hand tools and power tool accessories. The company is headquartered in Sparks, MD. Review: Great file - Nicholson still make great files. Review: Perfect for What I need it for. - I use superglue to build plastic model airplanes. The seams can be tough to sand down without taking the surrounding plastic with it. I used a craftsman smooth cut ignition file for filing down and shaping the seams then sanding smooth. After using on ignition points and other jobs it became slick didn't do the job on plastic anymore. Most ignition files today are double cut and leave grooves that must be sanded out after shaping. This 4 in. file is almost as small as an ignition file and works perfect. It will be used on plastic models only as I don't file ignition points now days. Glad I found this. ## Features - Rectangular shape for sharpening mill or circular saws and draw filing and, with tapered width to ease access into grooves - American pattern file for non-precision material removal - Single-cut teeth on sides and edges for sharpening and deburring - Square edges for filing sharp corners - Tang for use with an optional handle (sold separately) - 4" mill bastard file - American pattern and bastard cut - Use to sharpen mill or circular saws ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B001R1QCT4 | | Best Sellers Rank | #140,992 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #34 in American Pattern Files | | Brand Name | Nicholson | | Compatible Material | Metal | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (77) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00037103082435, 00037103243003 | | Grit Type | not_applicable | | Included Components | (12) "4" Mill Single Cut Bastard File" | | Item Dimensions | 6 x 2 x 1 inches | | Item Type Name | File | | Item Weight | 0.04 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Nicholson | | Material Type | High Carbon Steel | | Model | 08243N | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Number | 08243N | | UPC | 037103243003 037103082435 037103334008 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | Standard Limited Lifetime | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Nicholson - **Grit Type:** not_applicable - **Item Weight:** 0.04 Pounds - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 6 x 2 x 1 inches - **Material:** High Carbon Steel ## Images ![Crescent 4" Mill Single Cut Bastard File - 08243NN, Standard, 1 Count (Pack of 1) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61ZOdMShauL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great file *by D***R on May 16, 2025* Nicholson still make great files. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for What I need it for. *by M***Y on September 27, 2023* I use superglue to build plastic model airplanes.
