About Severance Hand Files

Severance offers four types of hand files: carbide, high speed steel, Borazon (CBN) and diamond. Severance carbide hand files often outlast regular files 1 to 100, and they can be resharpened over and over again.

The hand files come in five styles, set by stroke, cutting area and handle:

FJ: 6" stroke, in line style, cutting area 3/4" x 6", overall length 11-3/4"
FZ-K: 3" stroke, offset handle with knob, cutting area 3/4" x 3", overall length 9-1/2"
FZ: 3" stroke, offset handle, no knob, cutting area 3/4" x 3", overall length 8-3/4"
FS: 3" stroke, plain style, cutting area 3/4" x 3", overall length 6"
FE: 1-1/2" stroke, plain style, cutting area 3/8" x 1-1/2", overall length 6"

Carbide and steel files come in five cut patterns (standard, curved, chip breaker, rasp and double cut). CBN and diamond files come in fine (200 grit) and coarse (100 grit). Carbide die files come in six shapes; all have 2" long cutting surfaces, are supplied with the standard spiral, medium cut, and come with handles.
