GROBET FILES

Each application calls for a different type of file. There is more to file selection than shape alone. The cut selected is equally important. Determination of cut depends on the type and form of material to be worked, the amount of material to be removed, and the finish desired.

For example, rapid stock removal of stock often requires a coarse #00 cut, while working on narrow surfaces might suggest a medium #2 cut, and final finishing operations might require a fine #4 or #6 cut.

In the final analysis, file selection cannot be reduced to a formula or table but will be based on experience and common sense.
