the abrasive stone
The selection of the honing stone is very important because
it determines the life of the abrasive, the bore precision, the
removing time of the material, the finish degree and life of guide
shoes and mandrel (when it has integral shoes). In this selection
it is necessary to consider the follow elements:
- type of abrasive (grint, hardness, J, A, N, D);
- type of material to hone;
- material hardness;
- working time.
