Value Collection 040-NE (12) Midget Lap 0.04 in 12 Pc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 040-NE (12) is a 12-piece set of midget laps designed for precision finishing and honing of small-diameter bores and surfaces. Each lap measures 0.04 inches in diameter and 2.5 inches in length, with a 0.03-inch arbor diameter. An adjusting tool is included with the set, allowing the technician to expand or contract the lap for a precise fit within the work surface. These laps are used in metalworking and machining applications where tight tolerances are required. Machinists, tool and die makers, and precision fabricators are the primary users of this type of abrasive tooling.

Midget laps in this size range are suited for finishing very small bores, holes, and internal surfaces in metal components. The compact 0.04-inch diameter makes this set appropriate for work on instrument parts, valve seats, hydraulic components, and other fine-detail assemblies where standard honing tools are too large to fit. The 12-piece configuration provides enough quantity for shop use or for maintaining consistent lapping performance across multiple work pieces without frequent tool changeover.

Key Features

• 0.04-inch lap diameter for precision work in very small bores
• 2.5-inch overall length provides reach for typical bench and machine applications
• 0.03-inch arbor diameter for compatibility with standard small-bore lapping setups
• Adjusting tool included for on-the-fly lap expansion and fitment
• 12-piece set quantity supports consistent shop use and tool rotation

Compatibility

Designed as a standard midget lap replacement and shop-use set for small-bore lapping and honing applications in precision metalworking environments.

Installation Notes

Midget laps are installed and operated by machinists and precision fabricators following standard lapping procedures. Secure the lap in the appropriate holder or machine spindle before use, and use the included adjusting tool to set the correct lap diameter before engaging the work surface. Always wear appropriate eye protection and follow shop safety procedures when working with abrasive tooling. Do not exceed the recommended rotational speed for the lap diameter in use.
