Draper Half Round File

This 8" (200mm) Smooth Cut Half Round File offers an ideal combination of size and fine finishing capability for precision metalworking applications. The smooth (fine) cut produces minimal stock removal with a superior surface finish, making it perfect for final dimensioning, removing marks left by coarser files, and achieving smooth surfaces prior to polishing or assembly. The 200mm length provides sufficient working surface whilst maintaining the control necessary for quality finishing work. Constructed from carbon chrome steel that has been hardened and tempered, this file ensures consistent fine cutting performance throughout its service life. The rust preventative finish combined with a protective oil dip protects the delicate cutting teeth from environmental damage. The half round design's flat and curved faces provide the versatility required for achieving smooth finishes on varied geometries commonly found in engineering and toolmaking applications.
