StewMac Concave Guitar Fret End Files, Set of 2 (1 for Medium Frets, 1 for Wide Frets) – Smooth and Shape Fret Ends with Precision – Works on Stainless-Steel Too

Concave Fret End FilesExtra-versatile files for fret end shaping.These unique tools are for use after the frets have been installed, trimmed flush to the sides, and beveled with a flat file. They go a step beyond our popular Fret End Dressing File, adding a single-cut toothed concave filing surface. This makes smoothing the fret ends and delicately blending them into the crown of the fret more efficient. A professional touch, and a great fix for fret ends that protrude in dry weather, too.Efficient design: Each file has a slim shape and 30-degree angled end, for good control and ease of use. The right tool for the job.Concave surface: Single-cut teeth help blend the fret ends into the fret crown.Safe surface: Opposite the concave edge is a flat, untoothed surface to protect the fretboard when you're filing with the side surfaces.Toothed sides: The single-cut teeth on the sides file away metal burrs and help smooth the bevel on the fret ends.Safe corners: Each file also has smooth untoothed corners to help prevent damage to the fingerboard and the upper edges of bound necks.Available in two sizes or a set of both, for medium and wide frets:Medium: .080" (2mm)Wide: .120" (3mm)Each of these sturdy steel files is 7-7/8" long (similar files from other suppliers are only 3"), a practical length for filing fret ends without jamming the handle against the edge of the fretboard. Cutting surface length is 2-3/4". The file tang is rubber-coated for comfort.Works on stainless frets, too!
