How fast should you spin it? Run the Flex-Hone at speeds between 60 and 1200 RPM. That's a wide range, so look at the tool diameter and surface finishing requirements – and get the Flex-Hone Resource Guide for RPM recommendations. https://na2.hubs.ly/H06YyTt0

How do they improve fi****ms performance? Flex-Hone for Fi****ms tools use a controlled, low-pressure action to remove microscopic peaks inside the bore or chamber. This doesn't change geometry. It improves surface finish for reduced fouling and easier cleaning. https://na2.hubs.ly/H06LQD90 ****ms

Never run a Flex-Hone dry. Generously coat both the cylinder and the tool with honing oil, light motor oil, or a water-soluble oil. We recommend Flex-Hone Oil, our own special blend. It prevents loading and ensures exposure of fresh cutting particles. https://na2.hubs.ly/H06LQb80

What's it used for? This small-diameter Flex-Hone can improve the inner-diameter surface finish of brake, wheel, hydraulic, or pneumatic cylinders. Optimizing the seal-to-metal interface helps minimize friction and prevent air or fluid leaks. https://na2.hubs.ly/H06LQMq0

Planning a rebuild? Remember to clean your engine block after using the Flex-Hone tool. Wash the cylinders using hot, soapy water and a stiff nylon bristle brush. Next, wipe them dry with a clean cloth or towel. Then lightly oil the cylinders to prevent rust. https://na2.hubs.ly/H06LPMF0

Want a tip? If the tip of the Flex-Hone is red, the abrasive is 180-grit. But how can you determine the abrasive type? Look at the color of the marking on the tool's stem. The Flex-Hone Resource Guide covers all of the colors and contains more Flex-Hone tips. https://na2.hubs.ly/H06LPJV0

Use them for automated deburring, edge radiusing, and surface finishing. NamPower turbine-style brushes are professional-grade abrasive disc tools. They're great for hard-to-reach areas and create consistent edge radii on milled or turned parts. https://na2.hubs.ly/H06LQFV0

"The size was perfect for my 81.5mm cylinders," said Amazon reviewer Valentino about the Flex-Hone tool. BRM's flexible hones are available in sizes ranging from 4 mm to 36 inches. They come in multiple abrasive types and grit sizes to match your material and the amount of work to perform. https://na2.hubs.ly/H06t9Sc0

Why is the Flex-Hone larger than the bore? It's to create a soft, gentle cutting action. The abrasive balls press evenly against the cylinder wall without gouging the metal. The degree of oversize also centers the tool perfectly in the bore. https://na2.hubs.ly/H06t9t40

They work harder and last longer. These thread deburring brushes in this convenient kit last 3 to 5 times longer than the competition. They're made with ceramic abrasive filaments and are designed for the 8 most common metric thread sizes. Proudly Made in USA. https://na2.hubs.ly/H06t9rj0
