Heavy Duty Flex-Hone® Tools

Block Cylinders or Liners 3"-8"      Heavy Duty Flex-Hone 8"-18" 

     Extra Heavy Duty Flex-Hone 19"to 36"

The Flex-Hone Tool® produces a controlled surface condition unobtainable by any other method. It involves finish, geometry and metallurgical structure. A high percentage plateau free of cut, torn and folded metal is produced. The Flex-Hone® is a resilient, flexible honing tool with a soft cutting action. The abrasive globules each have independent suspension that assures the Flex-Hone® to be self-centering, self-aligning to the bore, and self-compensating for wear.
