Why choose this product

USA-Designed Abrasive Technology

Brush Research pioneered plateau honing in 1972, creating tools that deliver consistent, high-quality finishes. Silicon carbide beads bond to nylon filaments for rapid, uniform results, reducing machining time and improving seal performance.

Ideal for Professional & DIY Use

Self-centering, self-aligning, and easy to operate with standard drills or CNC equipment. Suitable for automotive repair shops, manufacturing, and serious DIY enthusiasts seeking precision and durability.

How to use

  • Select the correct bore size — Measure your cylinder bore accurately and choose a flex hone with a diameter 0.001-0.005" larger for optimal pressure and finish.
  • Attach to drill or CNC — Insert the flex hone into your drill or CNC spindle, set RPM to 1500-3000, and ensure proper alignment before starting.
  • Hone with steady pressure — Operate at moderate RPM, apply steady axial pressure, and move the tool in and out to create a crosshatch pattern. Use honing fluid for best results.
  • Inspect and finish — Check the surface finish regularly, and re-hone if necessary. Clean the tool after use and store in factory-sealed packaging.
