What is the coarseness of the files?

• The RS PRO 4 piece engineers 10 inch set features files with a second cut coarseness.

What is second cut?

• Second cut (also called double cut), refers to the coarseness grade of the cut. A second cut file features two sets of lines that create a cross type pattern, forming the teeth of the file. A second cut features medium weight teeth and is ideal for removing a moderate amount of stock quickly. There is also bastard cut that features coarse teeth and single cut that features fine teeth.

What is the correct technique to use?

• Due to the teeth design on files, they are designed to be used with a forward or push stroke, using steady, even and long strokes. Filing too quickly and aggressively can damage the material you're working with.
