Draper Half Round File

This 8" (200mm) Second Cut Half Round File is the most versatile option in the medium-grade range, offering an ideal combination of size and cutting characteristics for everyday workshop applications. The second (medium) cut provides controlled material removal with a reasonably smooth finish, making it suitable for general shaping, smoothing rough surfaces, and preparing components for final finishing operations. The 200mm length strikes an excellent balance between reach and precision control. Constructed from carbon chrome steel that has been hardened and tempered, this file delivers consistent performance throughout its working life. The rust preventative finish combined with a protective oil dip protects the cutting surfaces from corrosion during storage. The half round design's flat and curved faces provide the flexibility needed for diverse metalworking tasks, from flat panel work to radiused edges.
