DRAPER cutting tool

DRAPER offers this cutting tool. These tools remove material or make a clean cut: trimming a hose or a cable tie, sawing through a rusted bolt, deburring a lever after a crash or lifting an old gasket.

Why a good cutting tool?

The benefits:

• Bi-metal saw blade: hard teeth that cut steel, on a flexible back that does not snap easily.
• Snap-off or replaceable blades depending on the model: a fresh edge in a few seconds.
• Files in different cuts (bastard, second cut, smooth): remove material fast, then finish cleanly.

Why choose DRAPER?

Draper is a British family business founded in 1919 by Bert Draper in Kingston upon Thames, based since 1963 in Chandler’s Ford, Hampshire, and run by the family for three generations. Its catalogue lists more than 11,000 hand, power and automotive tools and workshop equipment items.

When should you replace this tool?

A dull or chipped blade, a file that slides instead of biting, worn saw teeth: replace the blade or the tool, otherwise you have to force it and it slips.

Specifications and fitting tips

• Manufacturer part number: 44962

Cross-Mania tip: Always cut with the blade moving away from you and, on an aluminium gasket face, keep the scraper or file flat: a scratch in the metal is enough to cause a leak.

Compatibility

Workshop tool: it works on any motorcycle or ATV. Just check the size or dimension stated.
