Draper Hand File

This 6" (150mm) Bastard Cut Hand File is the compact coarse-grade option in the Draper range, ideal for rapid material removal on smaller workpieces and in confined spaces. The bastard cut provides aggressive cutting action, making it perfect for initial shaping, heavy stock removal, and working with softer metals where speed is essential. Manufactured from carbon chrome steel that's been hardened and tempered, this file delivers consistent performance across extended use. The one safe edge allows precise control when filing against shoulders or into corners, whilst the rust preventative finish and protective oil coating ensure longevity even in demanding environments. Supplied in a pack of 12, this variant offers excellent value for workshops, maintenance teams, and fabricators who need reliable coarse files readily available for daily metalworking tasks.
