Precision shaping for model parts and fittings

The Tamiya 74164 Conical File is a small but useful tool for builders who want fine control when working on RC and Mini 4WD components. It handles pipe-shaped pieces, lets you ease hole edges for dowels and trims carbon fibre accents without heavy cutting.

Core attributes of the conical file

  • Precision Finish: A #200 grade surface gives a smooth, predictable filing action for detailed adjustments.
  • Compact Design: Overall length is 150mm with 55mm of file, providing comfortable handling in tight spots.
  • Navy-Blue Grip: The embossed ergonomic handle helps reduce slip during delicate work.
  • Protective Cover: A transparent cover is included to shield the file when not in use.

Best applications

This conical file is ideal for slimming the inside of tubular parts and for small increases in hole size to achieve a snug fit. It should not be used to cut new holes in R/C body shells.

When used gently it will remove small amounts from carbon fibre parts for fitting; work slowly to avoid fraying or delamination.
Yes. The file cleans and widens existing holes and edges on plastic parts, improving fit without aggressive material removal.
A #200 grade produces a fairly smooth finish suitable for finishing work; you can follow with finer tools if an ultra-smooth surface is needed.
This file is intended for model plastics and composites; it is not recommended for heavy-duty metal shaping.
