6-Tooth Flat Body File - Auto Body Filler Shaping & Rough Cutting

Q: What is the 6-tooth flat body file used for?

The 6-tooth flat body file is used for leveling and shaping body filler, lead, and solder on auto body panels. The coarser 6-tooth pitch removes material quickly on initial shaping passes.

Q: Does the 6-tooth flat body file have teeth on both sides?

Yes. The 6-tooth flat body file has teeth on both sides, which doubles the usable life of the blade. When one side dulls, simply flip the file to use the fresh side.

Q: What file holder is compatible with the 6-tooth flat body file?

This file is compatible with the 77753 and 77348 body file holders, which are sold separately at Creative Coating Solutions. These holders provide proper flex for filing convex and concave surfaces.

Q: What surfaces can the 6-tooth flat body file work on?

The flat body file can be used on flat, slightly concave, and convex body surfaces. The flexibility of the holder allows the file to conform to mild panel contours.

Q: How does the 6-tooth file compare to an 8-tooth or 15-tooth body file?

A 6-tooth file cuts more aggressively and removes more material per stroke than an 8 or 15-tooth file. Use it for initial rough shaping, then switch to finer tooth counts for smoothing.

Q: Can the 6-tooth body file be used without a file holder?

While technically possible, using a file holder is strongly recommended. It distributes pressure evenly, prevents file breakage, and allows proper flex control when working curved surfaces.

Q: Where can I buy the 6-tooth flat body file for my auto body shop?

The 6-tooth flat body file is available at Creative Coating Solutions. Order online with fast shipping and competitive pricing for shop supply needs.
