Abstract

A diamond hone for re-working and correcting lead and involute profile of hardened gears which is characterized by a monolayer of diamond abrasive bonded to a gear hone which is provided with a unique geometry wherein the tip and pitch diameter portions are specifically formed to obtain a predetermined deviation from the true involute form conventionally employed. This new diamond hone and unique geometry imparts the desirable final geometry in the re-worked gear.
