Brush Research BC14M18 Flex-Hone, 14 mm / 180 Grit
Brush Research BC14M18, catalog model BC14MM, is the 14 mm option in the listed flexible brake cylinder hones. Its 180-grit abrasive globules are independently supported for bore finishing. This small-diameter tool should be selected from the component's bore requirement, not from a generic claim that Flex-Hone tools suit every cylinder.
Specifications and included details
- Listed diameter: 14 mm; abrasive grade: 180 grit.
- BC14M18 identity with catalog model BC14MM.
- Flexible abrasive-globule construction for surface finishing.
Before ordering
Verify measured bore size, cylinder material and approved service method. No exact vehicle application, speed, lubricant or allowable bore enlargement is supplied. A damaged or out-of-limit brake component needs assessment according to its service instructions.
