Brush Research embraced the\nbenefits of a plateau finish and pioneered the concept of plateau honing\nculminating in the introduction of the FLEX-HONE® tool in 1972. The FLEX-HONE®\nhas gained many nicknames over the years and including ball hone, ball style\nhone, flexihone, dingleberry hone, bead brush, glaze breaker and glaze buster.\nFlexible honing with the FLEX-HONE® tool produces an oil holding cross hatch\npattern and a true plateau finish free of cut, torn and folded metal. Any type\nor size of cylinder can benefit from the FLEX-HONE®. These abrasive bead style\nbrushes are produced in standard diameters from 4mm to 36 inches. Nine\nabrasive types are offered including Silicon Carbide, Aluminum Oxide, Boron\nCarbide, Z-Grain, Leviagted Alumina, CBN and Diamond allowing the tool to be\ntailored to finish any base material. A choice of 11 different grit selections\nare available for precise control of finish parameters. The elimination of\npeaks results in rapid ring seating, better oil control, reduced seepage in\nhydraulic and pneumatic applications and provides better seal performance and\nlonger seal life. Successful applications include firearm chambers, shotgun\nbarrels, musical instruments, combustion chambers, air compressors, pumps,\nvalve bodies, valve guides, brake cylinders, wheel cylinders and the list goes\non and on. FLEX-HONE® tools are also very effective for deburring cross\ndrilled holes, port radiusing and edge blending. Because of its unique\nconstruction, the FLEX-HONE® is self-centering, self-aligning, and self-\ncompensating for wear so it does not require an elaborate set-up or special\ntraining. Deburring can be effectively automated and combined in the machining\nprocess to allow a complete cylinder finish in one operation or it can be\nemployed as a secondary operation with equal results.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul class=\"a\"\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003e[QUALITY]-Proudly Made in the USA. Quality and consistency you can count on made from the inventors and makers of the tool.\u003c\/li\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003e[DESIGN]-The FLEX-HONE is intentionally manufactured oversized. This engineered oversize creates the optimal amount of pressure inside the cylinder wall allowing the tool to be self-centering, self-aligning and self-compensating for wear and easy use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003e[FINISHING BENEFITS]-Offered in a wide variety of grits to achieve specific finishing tolerances as well as a beautiful crosshatch finish. Ideal for rebuilding hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders, engine and brake cylinders, valve guides, pumps, compressors and more.\u003c\/li\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003e[CROSSHOLE DEBURRING]-Accomplish finishing and deburring simultaneously in a single setup.
