Brush Research FLEX-HONE Cylinder Hone, BC Series, Silicon Carbide Abrasive, 3 (76 mm) Diameter, 240 Grit Size

I was putting in new rings, but had a glaze on the cylinder bore. this quickly removed the glaze and will allow the new rings to seat properly.

This is an easy way to remove a small amount of metal from cylinders. It creates a smooth surface. I would recommend this item to others who wish to enlarge the inside of a cylinder.

Great

Honed a Golfcart cylinder in no time, removed fine scratches and ridge at top of cylinder in under 5 minutes. Pricey but cheaper than a machine shop and frankly equal results for all I needed.

just what I needed

Exactly what you need to prep a new Nikasil cylinder for new rings. This will remove material quickly, which is what you need to set in a nice hash pattern in Nikasil. However, you only need a slow speed (low gear on most drills) and only 3 or 4 oscillating strokes. Good luck.

I have personally relied on products from this company for a very long time in a professional setting. As far as ball Hones go Flex-Hone is the best and has been. The quality is top notch and the number of sizes they make are unequalled by any other company

Perfect product, great description about getting the right size for my cylinder. Thanks

I used this on my 2004 Tacoma when putting in new leaf springs. I needed to clean and grind down a lot of rust on the inside of the shackle that the leaf spring bolt attaches to. This fit, and worked, perfectly! I went a few sizes up on the diameter of the hone versus the hole to be honed so there would be some additional friction and I could get it as smooth as possible. Attached it to my handle held drill and went to town. Would definitely order it again if I needed it!

Wow, I didnt know how great a tool this was! Perfect honing and amazing product engineering.
