Spotfacing tool with microstop cage For spotfacing, countersinking, chamfering and deburring during aircraft assembly
To protect aircraft from lightning strikes, all parts must be electrically connected to each other. This means removing the paint in the bore area during assembly. MAPAL has developed an innovative spotfacing tool with a patent-pending microstop cage that removes the paint efficiently and is particularly user-friendly in a plug-and-play solution.

The new tool replaces the previously used brushes and offers numerous advantages. It stops the surface from getting scratched and being penetrated too deeply, minimises operator errors and is easy to maintain. The tool rotates within the cage and only protrudes out as far as the material to be removed, ensuring precise machining. The innovative tool is extremely versatile and is also suitable for countersinking, chamfering and deburring. 

The spotfacing tools are available in two sizes for standard coating thicknesses. The two sizes come in different colours – another advantage ensuring faultless application.

An extraction system can also be fitted to the tool to comply with environmental regulations and to avoid harmful chromate dust.
