Which material is used to make a file?
Question

Which material is used to make a file?

A.

Aluminum

B.

Cast iron

C.

Low carbon steel

D.

High carbon steel

Correct option is D


Files are made of high carbon steel because it offers the necessary hardness, durability, and wear resistance required for cutting and smoothing operations. High carbon steel is hardened and tempered to achieve a tough core and hard cutting edges, which ensures the file remains sharp and effective over time.
The basic principal of file making is cut teeth into a metal strip to provide a rough tool that can wear any material from a softer surface.
