Precision Honing Abrasives for High-Accuracy Bore Finishing & Surface Generation Applications
JPT Honing Stones are high-performance abrasive tools engineered for precision honing, bore sizing, surface finishing, geometry correction, and cross-hatch generation in advanced machining applications. These honing abrasives are manufactured using premium-grade abrasive materials bonded onto steel carriers or produced as solid abrasive segments for use in precision honing systems.
Honing stones are designed to achieve:
- Accurate bore geometry
- Superior surface finish
- Controlled stock removal
- High dimensional accuracy
- Improved cylindricity and roundness
- Optimized surface cross-hatch patterns
The geometry and dimensions of honing stones are determined according to the design of the honing holder, mandrel, shoe, or carrier system. In particular, the abrasive layer height is selected based on the available radial infeed travel of the honing tool assembly.
JPT manufactures customized honing stones for:
- Vertical honing machines
- Horizontal honing machines
- CNC honing systems
- Hydraulic honing equipment
- Superfinishing applications
The dimensional configuration of the honing stone depends upon:
- Honing holder design
- Mandrel construction
- Shoe geometry
- Required bore dimensions
- Available infeed path
- Surface finish requirement
- Stock removal rate
Steel Backed Honing Abrasive
Standard Honing Stones consist of:
- Precision abrasive layer
- High-strength steel backing
- Soldered or bonded construction
The honing stone is mounted onto:
- Honing shoes
- Honing carriers
- Mandrel segments
This configuration provides:
- High rigidity
- Stable cutting action
- Excellent dimensional stability
- Long operational life
Dimensions are specified as:
W × H × L × A
- W = Width (mm)
- H = Height (mm)
- L = Length (mm)
- A = Abrasive Layer Height (mm)
Longitudinal Slot Design for Enhanced Cutting Efficiency
Slotted Honing Stones are similar to standard honing stones but incorporate longitudinal slots for:
- Improved chip evacuation
- Better coolant penetration
- Enhanced cutting performance
- Reduced thermal loading
- Lower stone glazing
The slotted design significantly improves:
- Cutting efficiency
- Surface finish consistency
- Honing stability during heavy-duty operations
Full Abrasive Construction
Solid Honing Stones consist entirely of abrasive material without steel backing.
These stones are:
- Mounted directly onto holder segments
- Soldered onto honing carriers
- Used for specialized honing applications
Advantages include:
- Maximum abrasive volume
- Improved stone utilization
- Enhanced cutting capability
- Longer abrasive life
Precision Honing for Small Bore Applications
Compact Honing Stones are specially designed for:
- Small diameter bore honing
- Precision micro-finishing
- Compact honing heads
- Miniature honing systems
These stones are directly fitted into:
- Honing holders
- Precision mandrels
- Compact honing assemblies
