Draper Half Round File

This 8" (200mm) Bastard Cut Half Round File offers an excellent balance between manoeuvrability and working surface area, making it a versatile choice for general workshop applications. The bastard (coarse) cut delivers rapid material removal for initial shaping, deburring, and preparation work on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The 200mm length provides sufficient reach whilst maintaining good control for precision work. Constructed from carbon chrome steel that has been hardened and tempered, this file provides reliable performance across demanding metalworking tasks. The rust preventative finish combined with a protective oil dip ensures the cutting teeth remain sharp and corrosion-free. The half round design's dual surfaces make it particularly useful for engineering applications requiring work on both flat and curved profiles.
