VBLH 6060 SERIES

Vapor Blast's Liquid Honer will turn your lab, tool room, machine/metal shop, or 
production facility into a quality surface treatment center. Look at the advantages:
1.) Will reach crevices, fillets, edges, and corners in intricate parts that virtually impossible to clean,
deburr or polish by other means. 
2.) Wet blast process using finer abrasive (up to 5,000 mesh) cleans parts without changing
 tolerances. Will hold a 5 RMS. 
3.) Vapor Blast Liquid Honing produces a very smooth surface with non-directional, finely etched, non-mirror (matte) finish.
 4.) Peening with glass beads improves surface tensile strength by cold-working the metal. 

What ever your surface treatment problem, Vapor Blast can solve it!
