Brush Research Flex-Hone GBD51224 GBD Heavy Duty Flexible Cylinder Hone, 5-1/2" Bore, 240 Grit, Silicon Carbide

Brush Research Flex-Hone GBD51224 GBD Heavy Duty Flexible Cylinder Hone, 5-1/2" Bore, 240 Grit, Silicon Carbide

• Brush Research GBD51224 is a Flex-Hone GBD heavy duty flexible cylinder hone for surface finishing, deburring, and edge breaking in 5.001 to 5-1/2 inches bores. It uses 240 grit silicon carbide abrasive globules and a 6 inches abrasive part to help produce an Ra finish of 24 to 32 microinch when used with lubrication.
• Features:
  • Bore range 5.001 to 5-1/2 inches supports internal diameter finishing and deburring on nominal 5-1/2 inches bores.
  • 240 grit silicon carbide abrasive helps achieve a fine surface finish in the 24 to 32 microinch Ra range on mild steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and other softer ferrous materials.
  • 6 inches abrasive part and 17-1/2 inches overall length help maintain stable engagement through deeper bores during finishing passes.
  • Self centering, self aligning, and self compensating for wear construction helps maintain consistent contact for repeatable results.
  • Recommended operating range of 350 to 600 RPM with lubrication required supports controlled cutting action and helps reduce abrasive loading.
