Description:
The Brush Research GBD50018 Flex-Hone is a versatile and robust tool designed for surface finishing, deburring, and achieving optimal finishes on various materials. Here's a detailed description of its key features and technical specifications:
Key Features:
- Surface Finishing: The Flex-Hone Tool offers a variety of abrasive types and grit selections for achieving optimal surface finish on any base material.
- Ra, Rk, Rpk Reduction: Commonly utilized to reduce Ra, Rk, and Rpk values while maintaining Rvk and Vo volume for effective oil retention.
- Sizing Tool Compatibility: Facilitates the quick and accurate functioning of sizing tools without interference from surface finish.
- Adhesive Bonding: Suitable for adhesive bonding applications where a rougher surface is desired to enhance bonding integrity.
- Deburring: Efficiently removes burrs from cross-drilled holes, leaving a clean, radiused intersection.
- Online or Offline Use: The tool can be employed both online in machine tool applications and offline as a secondary operation.
- Self-Centering and Self-Aligning: Eliminates the need for elaborate, rigid setups, as the tool is self-centering and self-aligning to the bore.
- Rotation Technique: Optimal results are achieved by rotating and stroking the tool in both clockwise and counter-clockwise directions for a symmetrical deburring pattern.
- Plateau Finishing: Pioneering the concept of a plateau finish, it removes peaks from prior machining operations, creating a substantially flat or plateaued finish.
- Cross Hatch Pattern: The cross hatch pattern aids in lubrication control and retention, reduces seepage in hydraulic and pneumatic applications, and promotes longer seal life.
