Draper Hand File

This 12" (300mm) Second Cut Hand File is the longest medium-grade option available, designed for substantial metalworking projects requiring maximum reach combined with controlled material removal and improved surface finish. The 300mm length is particularly effective for working on large fabrications, extended surfaces, and applications demanding long, consistent filing strokes. The second (medium) cut grade provides balanced performance between material removal speed and surface quality, making it ideal for general shaping, smoothing operations, and preparing large components for final finishing. Manufactured from carbon chrome steel that's been hardened and tempered, this file maintains its cutting edge through demanding daily use. Featuring one safe edge, you can file precisely against shoulders and into corners without damaging adjacent finished surfaces. The rust preventative finish and protective oil coating ensure the file remains in optimal condition even in challenging workshop environments. Supplied in a pack of 6.
