Wish one is best for a cylinder wall that is 75mm (2.95 inch) ?

For the cylinder wall bore size of 2.95", the 3" Flex-Hone is the correct choice., Enter this ASIN # B002N3AA2A in the Amazon search bar for the correct hone.

Hello, my cylinder bore is 3 1/8" what size tool do i need to purchase thank you.

For a 3.125" bore, your application will require the 3-1/4" (3.250") diameter Flex-hone. The 3-1/4" will work perfectly in the 3-1/8" bore as the 3-1/4" Flex-hones working range is down to 3.000". Thank you for the inquiry.

Can i use this to hone out an old cast iron pipe? it's about 3 3/4" now and i want it at 4" id. thanks

This hone is not coarse enough to remove that much material. It would take forever and the hone would wear out first. You would need a lathe to remove that amount of thickness.

I see that it says tool is oversized. For a cylinder bore of 3.66, should I be getting the 3.75 or the 3.50 model?

1I bought a 4.50 and used it on a 3.55 bore with no problem I didn't hone as much as instruction said for large bore, hatch marks were beautiful so go bigger and you can use it over a broad area of bores.

Flexi-Hone 3.5”

Did a great job, really easy to use

Needed this to refresh some bores that were bored out oversized and had oiling consumption issues. I Ordered new rings and wanted to refresh the cross-hatch. as seen in first image of the bore, the machining marks are visible however the cross hatch isn't except for at the top where the crown sits and the rings don't ride on the cylinder walls. I used two Flex Hones to achieve the desired result, a somewhat course one & then a finer one for the finish. Hopefully the rings will Bedd themselves in nicely and have good oil retention. This is on a Toyota 2JZ 6 Cylinder Engine with an overbore of 86.5mm

Just what my husband needed for some engine rebuild work. The size is correct and the quality is good.

Be careful when using this. I was sent a product that was larger than what I needed (and had ordered) and I failed to notice until it was too late.
