Hertel 2296309 Chucking Reamer 3.00mm Hss 4 Flute

Product Description

The HERTEL 2296309 is a chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in metalworking applications. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, it delivers accurate sizing in drilled or bored holes. The reamer measures 3.00 mm (0.1181 inches) in diameter with a 3-1/2 inch overall length and a 7/8 inch flute length. Its four straight flutes and right-hand cutting direction make it compatible with standard machine chucks on lathes, mills, and drill presses. This tool is installed by machinists and tool-and-die professionals performing finish reaming in production or maintenance environments.

This chucking reamer is suited for light to medium stock removal in through-holes and blind holes where tight diameter tolerances are required. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill chucks or collets. Typical applications include reaming holes in ferrous and non-ferrous metals where a smooth bore finish and controlled fit are needed. It is used in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and production floor environments across general manufacturing and precision fabrication.

Key Features

• 3.00 mm (0.1181 inches) reamer diameter for precise hole finishing
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability in ferrous and non-ferrous materials
• Four straight flutes with right-hand cutting direction for smooth, controlled material removal
• Bright, uncoated finish maintains sharpness and allows visual wear inspection
• Straight-cylindrical shank for secure seating in standard drill chucks or collets
• Compact 3-1/2 inch overall length suitable for close-clearance setups

Compatibility

Designed as a standard chucking reamer for use in machine chucks, drill presses, lathes, and milling machines accepting straight-cylindrical shank tooling in the 3.00 mm diameter range.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers are installed by machinists and tool operators; ensure the machine is fully stopped and de-energized before changing or seating tooling. Secure the straight-cylindrical shank firmly in the chuck or collet to prevent runout. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve bore finish. Follow shop safety protocols and applicable OSHA machine guarding standards when operating rotary cutting equipment.
