Abstract
A flash-removal tool comprises a tool body, extending along a longitudinal tool axis, and a tooth, projecting from the tool body in a first direction. The flash-removal tool further comprises an engagement surface, perpendicular to the longitudinal tool axis and located a preselected distance away from the tooth along the longitudinal tool axis. The tooth comprises a shearing surface, facing in the first direction and located an offset distance away from the longitudinal tool axis in a second direction. The first direction and the second direction are orthogonal to each other and define a plane, perpendicular to the longitudinal tool axis.
