Tool removes extraneous material—Brush Research Mfg., booth 5044

Brush Research Mfg. Co. has made several new additions to its line of miniature Flex-Hone products. Among the tooling offered is the FlexHone, which is applicable for bore sizes as small as 0.156" (4 mm). Comprised of abrasive globules that are laminated onto flexible nylon filaments, the tool is self-centering and aligns to the bore. It also compensates for wear. In addition to removing peaks from the surface, the tool removes cut, torn and folded metal that may linger after previous machining operations
