Precision finishing tool for model making

The Tamiya 74164 Conical File is aimed at modellers who require accuracy when modifying small parts. It performs well on tubular components, for easing dowel-fit holes and for neatening carbon fibre trims in Mini 4WD builds.

Main benefits of the conical file

  • Precision Finish: A #200 grade surface yields a neat, controlled filing result for delicate work.
  • Compact Design: Overall length 150mm and a 55mm file section allow fine control in tight areas.
  • Navy-Blue Grip: The embossed handle gives a secure hold to reduce slipping while filing.
  • Protective Cover: Supplied with a clear sheath to protect the file when stored.

Where to apply this file

Use the tool to thin the inside of pipe-like parts and to make small adjustments to hole sizes for a better fit. It should not be used to create new holes in R/C body shells.

It is suitable for common modelling plastics and carbon fibre used in RC and Mini 4WD parts; avoid heavy metals or hardened alloys.
The #200 grade produces a tidy finish appropriate for most fitting tasks; follow up with finer abrasives if a smoother surface is required.
Yes, its compact size and protective cover make it easy to include in a compact toolkit for on-the-go adjustments.
