Cleveland C25346 Chucking Reamer Wire Size 15 Hss

Product Description

The CLEVELAND C25346 is a straight-flute chucking reamer manufactured from high-speed steel and designed to finish-ream drilled holes to a precise 0.1800-inch diameter. With an overall length of 4.5 inches and a 1.125-inch flute length, the C25346 is sized for use in manual or CNC chucking operations where close-tolerance hole finishing is required. The bright, uncoated HSS construction provides good durability across a range of workpiece materials. Six straight flutes promote accurate cutting and smooth chip evacuation on right-hand rotation. Machinists and toolroom technicians are the primary installers of this tool.

The C25346 is suited to machine shop, toolroom, and production environments where wire-gauge-sized holes must be reamed to consistent diameter. Wire size 15 corresponds to 0.1800 inch, falling in the 0.1500 to 0.1999-inch decimal range. The straight cylindrical shank seats directly into a standard drill chuck or collet holder on a drill press, lathe, or milling machine. Right-hand cutting direction makes it compatible with conventional right-hand spindle rotation. It is appropriate for both low-volume toolroom work and repetitive production reaming where an uncoated HSS reamer meets material requirements.

Key Features

• 0.1800-inch (Wire Size 15) reaming diameter for precise hole finishing
• High-speed steel construction provides durability across common workpiece materials
• Six straight flutes support accurate alignment and smooth chip evacuation
• Bright, uncoated finish - no coating to affect dimensional tolerances
• Straight cylindrical shank seats in standard drill chucks and collet holders
• Right-hand cut, 4.5-inch overall length suits typical bench and machine applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style chucking reamer compatible with any standard drill chuck or collet holder accepting a straight cylindrical shank in the appropriate diameter range; verify chuck capacity before use.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists and toolroom technicians. Secure the straight shank firmly in a properly sized collet or drill chuck before operation, and verify runout with a dial indicator where close tolerances are critical. Pre-drill holes to the correct sub-size before reaming - never use a reamer to remove excess stock beyond its recommended allowance. Always use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material and operate at the feed and speed recommended for HSS reamers to avoid tool damage.
