Bahco BAH11430410 Flat Rasp Bastard Cut 4 Inches

Product Description

The BAHCO BAH11430410 is a flat rasp with a bastard cut profile, designed for shaping and smoothing wood, plywood, wallboard, and plastics by hand. At 4 inches in overall length with a 53mm (approximately 2.09 inches) length of cut, this compact rasp is suited for detail work and tight areas where a full-length file is impractical. The flat file shape allows consistent contact across flat and slightly curved surfaces. Overall thickness measures 0.07 inches and overall width measures 0.43 inches. At 0.07 pounds, it is lightweight and easy to control through extended use. A standard handle style keeps the grip familiar for any tradesperson or craftsperson reaching for a quick shaping or deburring tool.

This rasp is intended for use on wood, plywood, wallboard, and plastics. Its compact 4-inch form factor makes it a practical choice for finish carpentry, HVAC duct board trimming, plastic conduit fitting, and general material shaping tasks on the job site or in the shop. The bastard cut provides a medium-aggressive tooth pattern that removes material efficiently while still leaving a surface that can be brought to finish with lighter files or sandpaper. It ships individually and is well suited for toolbox carry as a utility shaping rasp.

Installation Notes

Rasps are hand tools requiring no installation. Secure the workpiece before filing to prevent movement and ensure controlled material removal. Use appropriate eye protection when rasping brittle or friable materials such as wallboard or plastics. Inspect the rasp teeth before use and replace the tool if teeth are worn flat or the tang is damaged.
