Hertel 2290062 Chucking Reamer 3/32 in Hss 4 Flute

Product Description

The HERTEL 2290062 is a straight-flute chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in metal working applications. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, it delivers accurate sizing on through and blind holes where tight tolerances are required. The straight-cylindrical shank seats directly in a drill chuck or collet, and the right-hand cutting direction suits standard machine operation. At 3 inches overall length with a 3/4 inch flute length and 0.0938 inch nominal diameter, this reamer is suited for small-bore work where controlled stock removal and smooth finish are the priority. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals are the primary users.

This reamer is applied in drill press, lathe, or CNC machining center operations where a pre-drilled or bored hole must be brought to final size and finish. The 3/32 inch (0.0938 inch) diameter makes it appropriate for small precision components such as pins, bushings, and dowel holes in metalworking, toolmaking, and light manufacturing environments. It is sold as a single unit and is intended for production or maintenance machine shop use where consistent hole geometry is critical.

Key Features

• HSS construction provides good wear resistance and toughness for reaming steel and non-ferrous materials
• Bright, uncoated finish allows direct inspection of cutting edge condition
• Straight-cylindrical shank compatible with standard drill chucks and collet holders
• 4 straight flutes deliver balanced cutting action and chip clearance in small-diameter bores
• Right-hand cutting direction suits conventional machine spindle rotation
• 3/4 inch flute length accommodates typical hole depths for this diameter class

Compatibility

Designed as a standard chucking reamer for use in drill presses, lathes, and machining centers equipped with drill chucks or collet systems accepting a straight-cylindrical shank at the 3/32 inch diameter range.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers should be installed by a qualified machinist following standard machine shop procedures. Always power down and lock out the machine spindle before inserting or removing the reamer from the chuck or collet. Ensure the shank is fully seated and the chuck is properly tightened before operation. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and achieve the intended surface finish.
