Product Description
Milwaukee 13/64 in. Round File for Saw Chain — 6 Pack
Model Number: 49-16-2888
The Milwaukee 49-16-2888 is a 6-pack of 13/64 in. Round Files for sharpening saw chain on Milwaukee and compatible chainsaws — a supply of precision round files for hand-sharpening the cutter teeth of chainsaw chains that specify the 13/64 in. file diameter. The 13/64 in. diameter is the correct specification for chainsaw chains that use this larger file size — common on chains designed for larger-pitch cutter teeth found on full-size professional chainsaws and certain performance chain specifications. Using the correct diameter file is essential for maintaining the designed cutter hook angle and relief geometry — a file that is too small does not fully sharpen the curved back of the cutter tooth, and a file that is too large changes the cutter's relief angle from the designed specification, both of which produce a chain that cuts differently than intended.
Field sharpening with the correct round file restores sharp cutting edges between shop sharpening intervals, reducing the need to stop work and transport the chain to a sharpener during active felling and bucking sessions. The 6-pack provides enough files for multiple sharpening sessions throughout a season or project scope — a critical supply for professional saw operators whose work pace dulls chains regularly. See the Milwaukee 3/16 in. Round File (49-16-2886) for chains specifying that smaller diameter, the Round File Handle (49-16-2890), and the Flat File (49-16-2891) for complete chain maintenance coverage.
