EXTERNAL LAPS AND LAP HOLDERS

HOW TO SELECT THE PROPER EXTERNAL LAP

EXTERNAL LAPS should be shorter than the length of the part being lapped.  When lapping a cylindrical part with lands, the external lap should be long enough to span as many lands as possible to prevent rolling edges.  STANDARD EXTERNAL LAPS are manufactured slightly over-size to allow for clearance and can be tightened to the appropriate diameter with the EXTERNAL LAP HOLDER.
