BC 7MM Brake Cylinder Flex-Hone 180SC Grit - Brush Research

The Brush Research BC 7MM Brake Cylinder Flex-Hone (BC7M18) is a professional-grade honing tool engineered for precision surface finishing in small brake and hydraulic cylinders. This tool effectively removes glaze, rust, and other imperfections, restoring optimal cylinder performance and extending seal life for critical brake system maintenance and overhauls. It provides technicians with a reliable solution for ensuring a consistent and controlled bore finish.

Key Features

• Flexible, Self-Centering Design: Ensures uniform pressure distribution and a consistent, controlled finish within the cylinder bore, promoting an ideal surface without over-honing for reliable cylinder performance.
• Premium 180SC Silicon Carbide Abrasive: Equipped with 180SC grit silicon carbide abrasive, specifically formulated for efficient glaze breaking and superior surface conditioning on various cylinder materials, including mild steel, stainless steel, and cast iron.
• Precise 7MM (.276") Diameter: Optimized for the specific requirements of smaller brake and hydraulic cylinder bores, ensuring an accurate fit and effective material removal.
• Professional-Grade Durability: Manufactured by Brush Research in the U.S.A., ensuring longevity and consistent, reliable performance in demanding automotive and industrial repair environments.

Applications

• Resurfacing hydraulic brake cylinders to effectively remove corrosion, rust, and hardened glaze deposits.
• Preparing cylinder walls for optimal seating and performance of new brake seals and piston cups, preventing fluid bypass.
• Achieving the critical cross-hatch pattern on cylinder surfaces, essential for proper lubrication retention and extended seal longevity in braking systems.
• Suitable for maintenance and overhaul of automotive, motorcycle, and other small hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders, including wheel cylinders and valve guides.
