The Apex Tool Group Standard Pillar Files feature a Swiss pattern design and are perfect for precision work, with safe edges. This 6″ pillar file with #2 cut is similar in shape to hand files but only about two-thirds as wide, with double-cut on sides and safe edges. The file measures 6 inches (15.2cm) in length, 15/32″ (11.9mm) wide and 9/64″ (3.6mm) thick.
Built for gunsmithing applications where precision finishing is essential, this file is designed to handle detailed work on firearms parts and components. Apex Tool Group owns multiple tool brands including Nicholson, which is recognized for quality hand tools. The tapered thickness and narrow profile of the pillar file design provide excellent control and access to tight spaces during gunsmithing tasks. The #2 cut rating offers medium tooth spacing, making it versatile for both stock removal and finishing work. Whether you’re working on wood components, metal surfaces, or detailed stock inletting, this Swiss pattern file delivers the precision and durability demanded by professional gunsmiths and serious hobbyists.
