1-1/8" Brake Cylinder Flex - Brush Research

The Brush Research 1-1/8" Brake Cylinder Flex Hone (model BC11/8) is engineered for professional technicians and mechanics to efficiently clean and refinish brake cylinders. This high-quality tool effectively removes rust, corrosion, and glaze, preparing cylinder walls for optimal piston seal and brake system performance. Its robust construction and flexible design ensure reliable operation in demanding workshop environments.

Key Features

• 1-1/8" Diameter: Precisely sized for a wide range of common brake cylinders.
• 180-Grit Abrasive Surface: Provides effective material removal for cleaning and deglazing without excessive material loss.
• Flexible Design: Allows for easy entry and self-centering within the cylinder bore, reaching tight spaces with consistent pressure.
• Heat-Treated Construction: Enhances tool longevity and durability, suitable for repetitive professional use.
• Self-Centering Action: Ensures uniform honing pressure and a consistent cross-hatch pattern for optimal seal seating.

Applications

This brake cylinder flex hone is an essential tool for automotive and industrial maintenance tasks. It is ideal for resurfacing brake cylinders on passenger cars, light trucks, and various other vehicles, ensuring proper brake function and reliability. Beyond brake components, its precise 1-1/8" diameter and flexible shaft make it suitable for cleaning and preparing other small precision bores, such as those found in carburetors, fuel injectors, or hydraulic components, where a clean, consistent surface finish is critical.
