b) Triangular File
Triangular file is triangular in section and very useful when
filing tight corners or angles. The sharp edges allow the file to
fit into corners when filing.
c) Square File
The square file is quite thin and fits into corners well. They can
be used to file slots in metal or for filing where there is little
space.
e) Flat File
It is use to file flat surfaces. It is also the most common type of
file for all types of work except inside curves, the flat file
tapers in both width and thickness toward the head.
f) Pillar File
Pillar files are similar to hand files in general shape, but are
much narrower. They are double-cut with one uncut edge.
Pillar files are used to file in slots and keyways
DISCUSSION:
The method used in this project is cold forming. The students
were given 2 flat bars and from that, they need to construct the inside
and outside calipers. The students used a hacksaw in cutting the flat
bars. The students exercised their creativity skill in placing the metal
so that it can be easily cut. In order to form the desired shape, the
students used a ball-peen hammer to strike the flat bars in a room
temperature. The students skill in filing were tested once again. They
used a half-round file and flat-file in filing a curved and flat surfaces
respectively. This activity would help them enhance their skills that can
be used for upcoming experiments.
CONCLUSION:
In doing this shop practice, sufficient knowledge of different hand
tools are needed. This would help the students finish their work faster
and efficiently, and since this is the first time that the students will be
working on cold forming. Proper practices should also be performed to
ensure the safety of the students. The students should avoid using a
file without a handle. Presence of mind together with some PPEs is also
needed when performing operations in the drilling machine.
RECOMMENDATION:
The students recommend that the school should ensure that each
student should be given their PPEs because working in this kind of
environment is dangerous. Students are prone to lacerations and other
injuries. The student also recommend that the tools should always be
checked to ensure that it is capable of doing its job. Some of the blades
of the hacksaw are dull and needed to be replaced.
