Key Features

• Self-Centering Design: Ensures consistent pressure and a uniform cross-hatch finish throughout the brake cylinder bore.
• Silicon Carbide Abrasive: Provides effective cutting action for reconditioning and deglazing cylinder walls.
• 320SC Grit Level: Offers an ideal finish for new piston seals, ensuring proper break-in and sealing.
• Flexible Construction: Conforms to the cylinder bore, compensating for minor imperfections and providing full contact.
• Proprietary Globule Design: Delivers an even and controlled abrading process, enhancing tool life and performance.

Applications

• Brake Cylinder Reconditioning: Specifically engineered for honing 3/4 inch brake cylinders in automotive and motorcycle applications.
• Surface Preparation: Creates an optimal surface texture for piston seals to seat properly and function efficiently.
• Deglazing Cylinder Walls: Effectively removes glaze and minor surface imperfections from worn brake cylinder bores.
• Hydraulic System Maintenance: Suitable for reconditioning other small hydraulic cylinders requiring a similar finish.
• Preventative Maintenance: Prepares cylinder surfaces to extend the life of brake components and prevent future leaks.

Benefits

• Improved Braking Performance: Restores the optimal surface finish inside brake cylinders, leading to more consistent and reliable braking action.
• Extended Seal Life: The precise cross-hatch pattern created by the Flex-Hone promotes proper seal lubrication and reduces wear, extending the lifespan of piston seals.
• Efficient Glaze Removal: Quickly and effectively removes glaze and embedded contaminants, restoring the cylinder to a like-new condition without over-honing.
• Enhanced Fluid Retention: The ideal surface finish helps retain brake fluid, preventing dry spots and ensuring smooth, consistent piston movement.
• Cost-Effective Repair: Reconditioning brake cylinders with this honing tool offers an economical alternative to replacing entire brake components.
