Diamond files and sheets are also used for processing hardened steel. Using these products does not generate much heat, which prevents chemical wear. This allows for a longer service life for the high hardness diamond grain. Flexible diamond files adapt perfectly to workpiece surfaces. Due to their flexibility, they can be used in convex and concave contours with small radii.Special featuresIdeal for work on hardened steel.ApplicationsFinishingLevelingRemoving oxide layersRoundingSurface workMaterials that can be workedSteel materials with a hardness > 54 HRCTechnical ceramicsTool steelsTungsten carbideAbrasive materialsCase-hardened steelsFerrite (magnetic material)GlassGraphite and synthetic carbonNickel or titanium-based superalloysRecommendations for useOnly apply light pressure to the file, especially when using on workpiece edges.Loaded diamond files can be cleaned in kerosene or anti-static plastic cleaner with a file brush. Alternatively, ultrasonic cleaning is also possible. Often, knocking the file against a hard object is sufficient.Avoid using grease.Only use file up to a bending radius of 5/8".
