Flexible honing is ideal for engine block work, cylinder deglazing, and many other automotive
surface finishing applications. From brake
drum makers to truck engine remanufacturers, auto parts suppliers trust
flexible hones to deliver consistent, high-quality surface conditioning and
deburring results. Diesel mechanics, motorsports enthusiasts, and car
restoration specialists also choose industrial brush tools for their cleaning,
polishing, finishing, and surface improvement applications.
Flexible Honing for Automotive Surface
Finishing
Built with a stiff metal stem, flexible nylon
strands, and abrasive globules that come in a selection of grits and abrasive
types, the Flex-Hone is self-centering, self-aligning, and self-compensating
for wear. In addition to surface finishing and cross-hole deburring, the
Flex-Hone is ideal for surface preparation (roughing) and for achieving a plateau surface finish for improved oil retention.
Whether mounted in a machine or in an electric hand drill, the Flex-Hone can
be used with auto parts such as camshafts and valves, clutches and brakes,
engine cylinders and liners, and crankshafts and piston pins.
Abrasive Nylon Brushes for
Auto Parts
There's also a full
line of abrasive nylon brushes for cleaning, deburring, polishing, and restoring
auto parts. Automotive brushes are used in applications ranging from
deburring cast-aluminum engine heads to polishing small inside-diameter (ID)
holes on machined parts. NamPower brush tools are used to clean threads,
stabilize surfaces, and remove rust and corrosion. There are also crimped
wire wheels, knotted wire wheels and knotted wire cups that can remove
automotive paint and excess molded rubber.
What's Your Auto Parts Application?
From wet cylinders and dry cylinders to crankshafts and crank
bores, flexible honing tools and industrial abrasive brushes provide consistent, high-quality surface finishing.
So what's your automotive
application for flexible honing? How about for automotive brushes or the
NamPower™ line of brush tools? Have you used a crimped wire wheel for tube end
deburring or a knotted wire wheel for weld finishing?
