Draper Hand File

This 10" (250mm) Bastard Cut Hand File provides extended reach and aggressive cutting performance for larger metalworking projects. The 250mm length is particularly suited to working on longer surfaces, bigger components, and applications where consistent, straight filing action is required across extended workpieces. The bastard (coarse) cut delivers rapid material removal, making this file ideal for heavy-duty applications such as removing weld spatter, shaping castings, preparing rough surfaces, and general stock removal on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The carbon chrome steel construction is hardened and tempered to maintain cutting efficiency even under sustained use. Featuring one safe edge, this file allows precise control when working against shoulders or into corners without damaging adjacent finished surfaces. The rust preventative finish and protective oil coating ensure durability. Supplied in a pack of 12 for workshop convenience.
