REPLACED BY BRMBC10018 - Brush Research

The Brush Research BC1 1-inch 180 Grit Flex Brake Cylinder Hone is a professional-grade tool designed for precision cylinder resurfacing. While this specific model is now replaced by the BRMBC10018, it exemplifies the quality and effectiveness expected by automotive technicians and industrial mechanics for achieving optimal cylinder wall finishes. This hone is engineered to remove glaze and create a cross-hatch pattern essential for proper piston ring seating and oil retention in brake cylinders.

Key Features

• Precise 1-inch Diameter: Specifically sized for accurate honing of 1-inch diameter brake cylinders and similar applications.
• 180 Grit Abrasives: Provides an effective abrasive level for removing surface glaze and establishing an ideal plateau finish.
• Flexible Design: Self-centering and conforms to the cylinder bore, ensuring a consistent and uniform surface finish throughout.
• Durable Construction: Built with professional-grade materials to withstand the rigorous demands of automotive and industrial workshop environments.
• Improved Sealing: Promotes proper sealing and extends the life of hydraulic components by preparing cylinder walls correctly.

Applications

This flex hone is an indispensable tool for reconditioning brake master cylinders, wheel cylinders, and other small hydraulic cylinders in automotive and light industrial settings. It is ideal for pre-assembly preparation during rebuilds, ensuring worn cylinders are properly deglazed and resurfaced to accept new seals and pistons effectively. The controlled cutting action helps prevent premature wear and enhances the performance of hydraulic systems.
