Aerospace technology
Walter Krupp supplies Flex-Hone® tools and industrial abrasive brushes to aerospace companies, aircraft manufacturers, engine builders and MROs in the aviation industry. The Flex-Hone® tool is available with different abrasive types, grits and sizes to provide superior surface finishes on aerospace materials/alloys such as 302, 304, 416 and 17-4 stainless steels, Hastelloy®, Monel® and Inconel® 718, titanium 6AL-4V and special aluminum alloys.
Our Diamond Flex-Hone® is ideal for deburring, edge breaking, chamfering and surface finishing of hard materials such as carbide, ceramics and steel alloys used in the aerospace industry. With its resin-bonded crystals, this diamond tool can be used to automate labor-intensive tasks such as bevel honing, hole drilling, edge breaking and deburring. For surface finishing and deburring parts after machining or sanding, NamPower® sanding brushes give you optimum results.
