The FLEX-HONE 3-1/4in Diameter tool is a must-have for anyone working with mild steel, stainless steel, and cast iron. Proudly made in the USA, this tool is designed with quality and consistency in mind, ensuring that you get the best performance every time you use it.
One of the standout features of the FLEX-HONE is its intentional oversized design. This unique engineering creates optimal pressure inside the cylinder wall, allowing the tool to be self-centering, self-aligning, and self-compensating for wear. This means that you can achieve a perfect finish with minimal effort, making it an ideal choice for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts.
When it comes to finishing benefits, the 240 grit silicon carbide abrasive is exceptional. It is available in a variety of grits to meet specific finishing tolerances, allowing you to achieve a beautiful crosshatch finish. This makes it perfect for rebuilding hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders, engine and brake cylinders, valve guides, pumps, compressors, and more.
Another advantage of the FLEX-HONE is its ability to accomplish finishing and deburring simultaneously in a single setup. This versatility means that you can use it in virtually any rotating spindle, whether it be a hand drill, drill press, or CNC equipment. This flexibility makes it a valuable addition to any workshop.
With a grit rating of 240, this tool excels on mild steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and other softer ferrous materials. Typically, it achieves a finish of 24 - 32 Microinch (.6 - .8 Micrometer), ensuring that your workpiece has a smooth and professional appearance.
Included with your purchase is one GBD Heavy Duty FLEX-HONE with a bore diameter of 3.250in (83mm), a 5in abrasive part length, a 0.310in shank diameter, and an overall length of 13.5in. It is specifically designed for use on bore diameters between 3.001in and 3.250in, so be sure to order by bore size to ensure compatibility.
In summary, the FLEX-HONE 3-1/4in Diameter is an essential tool for anyone looking to achieve high-quality finishes on various materials. Its innovative design, quality construction, and versatility make it a top choice for both professionals and hobbyists alike.
