An aerospace industry client approached CT Hone, Inc. to I.D. hone 2 holes in a steel Pitchlink. The VAR 4340 steel Pitchlink was 15.750″ long, with 2 holes having an I.D. of .81355″ and 1.56355″. We were able to hold tightest tolerances of + .0005″ throughout the entire process, and achieve a microfinish of 63.
