Diamond fret file, offset, 300-grit

Diamond fret file, offset, 300-grit

Unlike traditional fret files, diamond files cut in both directions, they don't chatter or leave chatter marks, and the fret is smoother after crowning. These files are being used by repair shops and major manufacturers all around the world. Expensive, but will last a long time - clean with a brass wire brush.

This well-balanced steel fret file is offset, for more comfortable fret dressing and improved clearance at higher frets. Each file has two full-length concave filing grooves (one for narrow/medium fretwire, and one for medium/wide wire), which are uniformly coated with micro industrial-diamond particles. 8-1/2" x 1" x 5/32". Available in two versions - this is the finer 300-grit version. I use the 300-grit most, but the 150-grit is preferable for speedy removal of a lot of material.
