Selecting the right cut for a SIMONDS file depends on material removal rate and finish. Bastard cut (as on the 38RJ80) is for rapid stock removal on softer metals. For finer finishes, use second-cut or smooth-cut files. Always match file shape (half-round) to workpiece contour for effective shaping.
