How do you use the C-3053 burnishing tool?
The tool is used to drive it in. It is a slight press fit. Then the tool is drawn back through to expand it and finish the ID to size. The area of the shaft that's in the bushing while driving it is a few thou small to let it compress some. On the end of the shaft are 2 cutter/expansion rings which are slightly larger. They correctly size the ID as they are pulled through the bushing. I've never had it pull the bushing back out while doing it. Works like a charm
