Brush Research BC14M12 Flex-Hone Grit Silicon Carbide Engine Cylinder Hone - 14mm 552 120

The Brush Research BC14M12 Flex-Hone® is a standard duty, small diameter cylinder honing tool designed for precision surface finishing and deburring applications. This 14mm (.552") diameter tool features 120-grit silicon carbide abrasive globules permanently mounted on flexible nylon filaments, creating a self-centering, self-aligning tool that produces a consistent crosshatch pattern.

Key Specifications:

• Diameter: 14mm (.552 inches)
• Overall Length: 8 inches
• Abrasive Type: Silicon carbide
• Grit Size: 120
• End Marking Color: Silver
• ISO 9001 certified manufacturing

Applications and Benefits:

• Surface Finishing: Reduces Ra, Rk, and Rpk values while maintaining Rvk and oil retention volume, creating an ideal surface for sizing operations
• Deburring: Effectively removes burrs from cross-drilled holes, leaving clean, radiused intersections without elaborate setup requirements
• Plateau Finishing: Removes peaks from prior machining operations to create a flat plateau surface with optimal crosshatch pattern for ring and seal seating
• Adhesive Bonding Prep: Creates controlled surface roughness for improved bonding integrity

Ideal for automotive, aerospace, marine, military, hydraulic, firearm, and general industrial applications. The flexible construction allows for use in both inline machine tool operations and offline secondary processes. For optimal deburring results, rotate and stroke clockwise, then reverse direction for symmetrical pattern creation.
