  • Abrasive Tool For Cylinders- 1/14/2009 12:00:00 AM

    The Flex-Hone tool from Brush Research Manufacturing is a flexible honing tool that removes peaks and other imperfections in cylinder walls to create a specific surface finish. The tool’s construction allows the abrasive globules, or “stones,” to float, ensuring that the tool will be self-centering, self-aligning to the bore and self-compensating for wear. Applications include cross-hole deburring, surface finishing and edge blending.
