What is the Flex-Hone?

The Flex-Hone (or cylinder ball hone) is a resilient, flexible cylinder honing tool that produces a controlled surface condition unobtainable by any other method. Its soft cutting action and self-aligning design make it ideal for finishing, deburring, and edge-bending. Available in a wide range of sizes, abrasives, and grits, the Flex-Hone is suitable for virtually any cylinder application.
