<p>Crossing files are a type of machinist’s file that are used for shaping concave surfaces. Crossing files have two rounded faces, one shallower than the other. This makes for a cross section that resembles a pointed oval. As the curves on both sides of a crossing file are slightly different shapes, it can file concave surfaces of different depths. Their pointed edges allow them to shape inside tight areas in watch hands and gears. This process, known as ‘crossing out’, is where the file earned its name. Crossing files are tapered in width and thickness to allow them to file in tight spaces. They are double cut on all faces.</p>
