Kennedy® File Handles

Suitable for traditionally tanged engineer's files. A split file handle can cause a serious industrial accident. Kennedy safety handles are rapidly becoming standard equipment in workshops. Firmly secured inside each handle and covered by a ferrule is a steel spring, this combination absorbs the pressure when the tang of the file is driven into the handle, prevent splitting or cracking. Once properly inserted the tang of the file is held in a vice like grip that under normal use is virtually impossible to remove, unless the handle is deliberately broken.
