Inside an aluminium hydraulic block where crossholes open out into threaded holes.

Non selective deburring of complex features but leaving M3 threads intact.

2 intersecting angled cross holes into a main bore.
3 & 5 mm diameter holes in a steel component.

1.5 mm slot at the bottom of a 4mm diameter hole.

5mm threaded jets
Stainless
80% of these jets produced an erratic spray pattern before thermal deburring. After thermal deburring only 10% did.
