Draper Hand File

This 8" (200mm) Bastard Cut Hand File offers the versatility of a mid-range length combined with aggressive coarse-cut performance. The 200mm size strikes an excellent balance between manoeuvrability and reach, making it suitable for a broad spectrum of metalworking applications from general fabrication to maintenance work.

The rust preventative finish and protective oil coating ensure the file remains in optimal condition. Supplied in a pack of 12 for excellent workshop value.
