Bahco ERGO 4-183-08-2-2 Triangular File, Second Cut, 15.5mm

The Bahco ERGO 4-183-08-2-2 is a triangular second-cut file with a working width of 15.5 mm and an overall weight of 210 g. Designed for precise shaping and finishing, this hand file provides a balance of efficient material removal and controlled surface preparation. The ERGO™ dual-component handle improves grip and reduces hand fatigue during repetitive use.

Advantages

The triangular second-cut tooth pattern enables faster stock removal compared with single-cut files while still leaving a relatively smooth finish suitable for subsequent polishing or fitting. Its 15.5 mm triangular section is well suited for accessing corners and sharpening internal angles. The dual-component ERGO handle gives reliable control, slip resistance, and comfortable handling for extended tasks.

Suitable for

• Shaping and filing internal angles on metal or wood
• Deburring and removing excess material
• Fitting and finishing edges in metalworking and carpentry
• Sharpening saw teeth and file-shaped tools

How to use

Secure the workpiece and hold the file by the ERGO handle with one hand while the other guides the tip for consistent strokes. Use forward strokes with moderate pressure for material removal, and lift the file on the return stroke to avoid dulling the teeth. For internal corners and angled profiles, position the triangular section accordingly and work with controlled, even passes until the desired shape or fit is achieved. Clean the file teeth periodically with a file card to maintain cutting performance.

Recommendations

For best results use the Bahco ERGO triangular second-cut file on clean, secured material; match filing direction and pressure to the material type and finish required, and store the file in a dry place to prevent corrosion.
