For over 65 years, BRM has been the trusted source for high-performance brushing and surface finishing solutions—providing industrial brushes and FLEX-HONE® tools designed for a wide range of applications, including surface preparation, cleaning, deburring, polishing, and finishing.

Internal diameter applications

Cylinder Crosshole & Slot Deburring

Deburring is important for quality, aesthetics, functionality and smooth operation of working and moving parts. Learn how BRM FLEX-HONE® tools and brushes quickly and efficiently tackle burrs in a bore or cylinder.

 

ENGINE CYLINDER WALL DEGLAZING

Over time, the constant rubbing of rings against the cylinder wall can polish it to a very smooth finish. This creates problems with proper oil lubrication of your engine while increasing friction. Deglaze cylinders with ease using BRM tools.

 

FIREARMS BARRELS, CHAMBERS AND MORE

There are certain values we place on our firearms: Security, reliability, accuracy.  Learn how FLEX-HONE® for Firearms tools protect your investment and produce the optimum surface finish in any type or size cylinder, slide, chamber, magazine tube or smooth bore barrel. 

 

PAINTING & OVERSPRAY REMOVAL

Removing paint and coatings from pipes and tubing can be a pain. Whether you are using sandpaper or a compound, this takes unwanted time and labor to accomplish the task. Learn how BRM tools do this quickly and more efficiently.

 

PLATEAU HONING AFTER RIDGED HONING

BRM pioneered the concept of a plateau finish and is a strong supporter of the benefits that a proper cross hatch finish can provide. Learn how the FLEX-HONE® is the ideal solution to your plateau honing after ridged honing.

POLISHING

Getting your surface finishes down to the single Ra level is not always an easy task.  Learn how BRM FLEX-HONE® tools are getting the job done.

 

RUST & CORROSION REMOVAL

Rust can deem parts unusable and can be a painful maintenance task whether the part is a small diameter barrel or a larger diameter pipe for the oil and gas industry. Brush Research tools perform these tasks whether in the shop or out in the field.

 

SEALING SURFACES

If the cylinder finish is too rough or smooth, seals may wear out or leak. Learn how BRM tools are used to provide the proper sealing surface on your hydraulics, pneumatics and more. 

 

THREAD DEBURRING

Time is money and deburring threads can be labor intensive. BRM offers solutions that can automate the deburring process or allow solutions that can be used in the field to provide the ideal surface for an aligned thread fit.

 

Outer Diameter Applications

DEBURRING OF CONTOURED SURFACES

Eliminating burrs manually is a costly and time-consuming process. Reduce repetitive motion injuries, increase safety and improve quality and consistency by incorporating BRM brushes into your deburring setup.

 

FINISHING & DEBURRING OF FLAT SURFACES

Burrs on flat surfaces can interfere with the assembly of parts or even disturb other components if they fall off. Sometimes flat surfaces can benefit from a non-directional finish like rotors and flywheels.  Learn how BRM's industrial brushes and honing tools tackle flat surfaces.
