Interested in flow matching?
Many automotive business workers request that their parts be flow matched. While it’s impossible to bolt together parts during the extrude honing process, we can make sure they’re flow matched by matching parts to the gasket. This causes them to have the same dimensions after the extrude honing process is complete.
