	Files are abrading tools used to remove small amounts of metal and plastics. The teeth of a file are known as the ‘''cut''’ and are created by a ‘''single cut''’ across the file blade or a ‘''double cut''’ which creates diamond shaped teeth. Common ‘''cuts''’ of files are graded as smooth, second cut and bastard cut.		Files are abrading tools used to remove small amounts of metal and plastics.
