Cylinder Honing Tool ks tools 150.1195 Ø 51–177 mm

The Cylinder Honing Tool ks tools 150.1195 Ø 51–177 mm is designed for restoring and finishing internal cylinder surfaces in automotive and small-engine applications. This honing tool adapts to bore diameters from 51 to 177 mm and is intended to correct roundness, remove light wear and glazing, and generate an appropriate surface texture for improved piston ring seating and sealing. The tool suits workshop and professional engine-repair environments where precise cylinder finishing is required.

Advantages

The honing tool provides adjustable diameter coverage across a wide range of cylinder sizes, reducing the need for multiple fixed-size tools. Its construction delivers consistent surface contact and controlled material removal to achieve a uniform cross-hatch pattern and target cylindricity. The tool is compatible with common workshop drives and can be used to refine bores after reboring or to restore slightly worn cylinders without full machining. Overall, it helps improve combustion efficiency and reduce oil consumption by ensuring better piston ring function.

Suitable for

• Automotive engine cylinder finishing and restoration
• Small-engine and motorcycle cylinder maintenance
• Workshop use for light to moderate surface correction
• Preparing bores for new piston rings and seals

Key specifications

• Adjustable working diameter range: 51–177 mm
• Application: internal cylinder honing and finishing
• Intended use: removal of glazing, light wear, and generation of cross-hatch surface texture
• Compatibility: suitable for common workshop drive systems and hand-held power tools designed for honing operations
• Typical working environments: professional engine repair shops and mechanical workshops

How to use

Mount the honing tool securely into an appropriate drive (bench or hand-held hone driver) and set the tool to the target bore diameter within the 51–177 mm range. Use suitable honing stones or abrasives compatible with the tool and the cylinder material, and apply cutting fluid or honing oil to reduce heat and remove debris. Move the tool steadily through the cylinder bore with controlled strokes, maintaining consistent pressure and speed to develop an even cross-hatch pattern. Periodically measure bore diameter and roundness to avoid excessive material removal.

Usage recommendations

Prior to honing, verify cylinder dimensions and tolerances, and ensure the engine block is clean and free of loose debris. Use the correct grit of honing stones for the desired finish: coarser grits for material removal after reboring, finer grits for final finishing. Maintain adequate lubrication during operation and inspect the tool and stones for wear. After honing, thoroughly clean the cylinders to remove abrasive residues and apply appropriate corrosion protection before assembly.
