Repair Services - Honing

At this time we're no longer offering repairs.

Honing of components in yet another service provided by Lazzar's Hydraulics. In order to satisfy your needs, the honing process is another type of abrasive machining service that produces a precision and improved geometric form of surface. Typical process applications are the finishing of cylinders.

Unlike grinding which follows a simple path, this process allows the inconsistencies in the shape of the wheel to be transferred to the component. Honing overcomes this by following a complex path. As the tool touches a much larger area of surface, the inherent imperfections in the tool cannot transfer to the component.

Honing is a high precision work process and therefore only used in components that demand the highest level of precision and level of accuracy. Single bore finishing may also be used; it's similar to honing but must utilize a single pass thru the bore to finish.

A cross hatch finish maybe required in situations that require retention of oil or grease to lubricate the component and ring seal of pistons in cylinders. A smooth glazed finish in a cylinder will cause scuffing in the cylinder and piston ring.

Lazzar Hydraulics' Honing service always performs to your requirements and that of the hydraulic industry in order to repair your component and bring it back to standard, saving you the cost of purchasing new.
