Description:
This set of round chainsaw files is designed for hand sharpening saw chains, offering consistent cutting performance for maintenance in the workshop or out in the garden. The pack contains twelve 4.0 mm (5/32") files with a double-cut pattern that, according to the manufacturer, resists clogging and preserves a sharp edge for longer, helping you remove metal faster and with smoother strokes. 🔧
Key Points
The files are made from high-grade steel and have a round profile suitable for most common chains, including Oregon chains and other popular brands such as Husqvarna and Stihl. The 4.0 mm diameter matches many medium-pitch cutters and allows accurate reshaping of the tooth face. They are manual files intended for use with standard file guides or bar-mounted systems like Sure Sharp, giving you flexibility in how you maintain your chain.
Technical Specifications
Name
: Oregon Round Chainsaw Files, 12 x 4.0 mm (5/32")- Material: High-grade steel
- Diameter: 4.0 mm (5/32")
- Quantity: 12 files
- Cut type: Double-cut
Usage Recommendations
Use steady, even strokes following the original filing angle to maintain consistent tooth geometry. Clean the file regularly during use to prevent build-up, as this will help the double-cut teeth keep cutting efficiently. For best results, pair the files with a compatible guide to ensure uniform depth and angle across all teeth. ⚙️
Positive Aspects
The double-cut design helps reduce clogging, which can be particularly useful when working with resinous or dirty chains. Because these are manual files they give fine control over the sharpening process and can be used in the field without power tools. Note that manual filing requires some practice to keep the correct angle and pressure, and may not be the fastest option for heavily worn chains. 🔩
