file rasp Gedore R93000005 Height 30 mm Weight 820 g

The Gedore R93000005 file rasp Height 30 mm Weight 820 g is a hand tool designed for controlled material removal and shaping on wood, soft metals and plastics. The rasp profile and tooth pattern provide predictable cutting action while the 30 mm working height offers a balance between surface coverage and accessibility in narrow areas. With a total weight of approximately 820 g, the tool delivers stable handling for a range of professional and hobbyist tasks.

Advantages

The rasp combines a hardened steel body and a uniform tooth layout for consistent stock removal and long service life. Its compact 30 mm height improves maneuverability in confined or curved workpieces and allows accurate shaping without excessive vibration. The tool’s weight contributes to controlled contact pressure and steady strokes, reducing user fatigue during extended use.

Suitable for

• Shaping and smoothing wooden surfaces and contours
• Trimming and deburring soft metals such as aluminium and brass
• Profiling and fitting plastic components
• Fine tuning joinery and repair work

Key specifications

• Working height: 30 mm
• Approximate weight: 820 g
• Material: hardened steel rasp surface for wear resistance
• Tooth type: rasp-style teeth for aggressive but controlled stock removal
• Typical applications: shaping, smoothing, deburring, profiling

How to use

Secure the workpiece and select a comfortable grip on the rasp. Apply steady, even strokes in the intended cutting direction, maintaining consistent pressure to avoid gouging. For initial material removal use longer, firmer passes; switch to lighter, finer strokes for finishing and achieving the required surface profile. Clean chips from the teeth periodically to maintain cutting efficiency.

Recommendations

For safety and best results wear appropriate eye protection and gloves. Match the rasp to the workpiece material—use this rasp for wood, softer metals and plastics rather than hardened steel. After use, store the rasp dry and protected to prevent corrosion and preserve tooth sharpness.
