Gauged Nut Slotting Files

Our tempered edge-cut nut files produce round-bottom slots, to ensure that the strings seat properly in the nut without buzzing. Each chrome-alloy steel file has twin 4" cutting edges. Among our most popular tools, these professional files help you get the job done quickly and correctly.

Standard widths: .010" thru .056"
Nut files for bass: .065" thru .105"

TIP: A nut file can be rocked back and forth while cutting, to form a slightly wider slot when necessary.
Tools : Special tools for: Nuts and saddles : Gauged Nut Slotting Files : We offer a total of 16 gauged nut files for guitar, banjo, mandolin, bass, violin and more.

These files are as sharp as my old Grobet files, but with a better dimension selection. The size marking on the file itself also saves some headaches. I had to do two nuts last Friday and they went fast!
