DSPIAE AT-FX DLC Coated Stainless Steel File
Elevate Your Modeling Workflow with Pro-Level Precision
Every great model build starts with clean, precise shaping and smoothing. The DSPIAE DLC Coated Stainless Steel File is engineered to be your go-to tool for every stage of the process—from aggressive material removal to ultra-fine finishing. With dual grit options, DLC anti-rust coating, and precision CNC-cut teeth, this file delivers professional results for scale models, miniatures, resin kits, and more.
Key Features That Make This File a Must-Have
2 Grits, 1 File – Streamline Your Entire Workflow
No more switching tools mid-project! Each file features two different grits on opposite sides, so you can shape and smooth with one tool:
- AT-FX01 (#400 / #800): Perfect for medium cutting, preliminary shaping, and smoothing ABS/PS plastic parts. Double-cut teeth on both sides for fast, consistent material removal.
- AT-FX02 (#600 / #1200): Ideal for fine-tuning details and achieving a glass-smooth surface finish. The #1200 side uses single-cut teeth for ultra-fine texture and polishing.
DLC Coated Stainless Steel – Rust-Proof, Long-Lasting Performance
- Built from 420 high-hardness martensitic stainless steel for exceptional tenacity and cutting power.
- The advanced DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) vacuum coating creates an ultra-hard, low-friction barrier that resists rust, corrosion, and wear. Rinse it under tap water after use—no need for oil or special maintenance.
- Laser-etched grit markings stay crisp and legible for years, even with heavy use.
CNC-Cut Teeth – Fast Cutting, Minimal Clogging
The precision CNC chopping process creates evenly distributed, consistent teeth with optimized angles for:
- smooth, clog-free cutting action on plastic, resin, and epoxy putty.
- Less force needed to shape parts, reducing hand fatigue during long sessions.
- Easy cleanup—just brush along the direction of the teeth to remove debris.
Zero Scratches, Perfect Flatness
- The file’s precision-machined body offers near-zero tolerance, ensuring dead-flat surfaces for perfectly even filing every time.
- Safety plane design on both edges eliminates sharp corners, so you won’t accidentally scratch or mar adjacent parts when working in tight spaces.
Safe & Ergonomic for Hobbyists
- The rounded, smooth spine prevents accidental cuts and scrapes during use.
- Includes a protective sheath to keep the file safe from drops, bumps, and damage when stored or carried.

Important Usage Tips
- Do not use on hard metals (iron, steel) or soft metals (aluminum, tin, gold) — this will damage the DLC coating and teeth.
- Keep away from open flames and high heat sources.
- Avoid dropping the file on hard surfaces to prevent chipping the teeth.
- Clean by brushing along the direction of the teeth, not against them.
