What is Cylinder Bore Refurbishment?

Over time, cylinder bores can experience wear, scoring, or damage due to high pressures, heat, friction, and contamination. If left unaddressed, these issues can lead to reduced performance, oil leakage, and complete engine or hydraulic failure.

Cylinder bore refurbishment is a precision machining process that involves:

Reboring & Honing – Restoring bore dimensions to exact tolerances
Surface Refinishing – Achieving the ideal cross-hatch pattern for oil retention
Oversizing & Sleeving – Installing cylinder liners to repair severe damage
Bore Alignment & Resizing – Ensuring concentricity and performance consistency

Our expertise allows us to refurbish cylinder bores in a wide range of materials, including cast iron, steel, aluminium, and specialist alloys, ensuring a precise, durable finish.
