Part #: BC21/2

The Brush Research 2-1/2" Brake Cylinder Flex Hone (BC21/2) is engineered for professional technicians requiring precision reconditioning of brake cylinders. This robust tool effectively removes surface imperfections, rust, and corrosion, preparing cylinder walls for optimal seal performance and reliable braking. Its unique flexible design ensures a consistent, high-quality finish in a variety of cylinder sizes and types.

Key Features

  • Advanced Abrasive Technology: Features a 180-grit abrasive surface designed for rapid yet controlled removal of rust, corrosion, and glazing from cylinder walls.
  • Self-Centering Design: The flexible, self-centering nature of the hone ensures uniform pressure and a consistent cross-hatch finish throughout the cylinder bore, crucial for proper ring seating and oil retention.
  • Durable Construction: Manufactured with professional-grade materials, the BC21/2 is built for sustained use in demanding shop environments, ensuring a long service life.
  • Versatile Application: The flexible shaft and abrasive globules adapt to various cylinder configurations, allowing effective reconditioning in both standard and hard-to-reach areas.
  • Improved Seal Life: Prepares the cylinder surface to promote proper sealing, minimizing fluid bypass and extending the operational life of brake system components.

Applications

  • Reconditioning hydraulic brake master and wheel cylinders.
  • Preparing cylinder bores for new piston seals to prevent leaks and ensure optimal brake system function.
  • Removing surface oxidation and contaminants from industrial hydraulic cylinders.
  • Achieving a critical cross-hatch finish for proper lubrication and sealing in various small bore applications.
