Stainless Steel Rasp 270 mm, 10x10 Teeth, ABS Handle – Dedra 15B054

Stainless Steel Rasp 270 mm by Dedra is a hand rasp with a 270 mm stainless steel blade and a 10x10 tooth pattern, supplied with an ergonomically shaped ABS handle. The tool is intended for shaping, levelling and smoothing wood, plastic and other soft materials. Its corrosion-resistant stainless steel blade and compact length make it suitable for workshop, on-site and hobby use where reliable, low-maintenance rasping is required.

Advantages

The stainless steel construction of the rasping blade provides resistance to rust and reduced maintenance compared with carbon steel alternatives. The 10x10 tooth pattern gives a balanced material removal rate with a relatively fine finish, reducing the need for extensive sanding after rasping. The ABS handle is ergonomically shaped to improve grip and control during use and to reduce hand fatigue in short- to medium-duration tasks. The 270 mm blade length offers a compromise between reach and manoeuvrability for detailed work and confined spaces.

Suitable for

• Shaping and profiling soft and semi-rigid woods
• Trimming and smoothing plastic components
• Hobby and DIY modelling work
• On-site adjustments and minor carpentry repairs

Key specifications

• Rasp blade length: 270 mm
• Material of blade: stainless steel (corrosion-resistant)
• Tooth pattern: 10x10 teeth
• Handle material: ABS (ergonomic shape)
• Intended materials: wood, plastic, soft materials

How to use

Hold the rasp by the ABS handle with a secure, comfortable grip and apply moderate, even pressure while moving the blade along the workpiece in the direction of the cut to remove material efficiently. For best results, keep the rasp flat on the surface for broad shaping, and use the rasp on edges or corners with its tip for profiling. Periodically pause to clear filings from the teeth and check the workpiece for fit or finish. After use, rinse or brush the blade to remove debris and allow it to dry to maintain the corrosion-resistant surface.

Usage recommendations

For controlled material removal, start with light passes and increase pressure only if necessary. Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and a dust mask when rasping wood or plastic. Store the rasp in a dry place and avoid prolonged exposure to moisture to maintain the tool’s performance.
