Hertel 2328375 Hand Reamer 3/32 in 4 Flute Hss

Product Description

The HERTEL 2328375 is a straight-flute hand reamer designed for precision hole finishing in metalworking and machining applications. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, it delivers clean, accurate bores in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The reamer measures 3/32 inch (0.0938 inch decimal) in diameter, features a 1-1/4 inch flute length, and has an overall length of 2-1/2 inches. With 4 straight flutes and a right-hand cutting direction, it is suited for controlled hand reaming where dimensional accuracy and surface finish are critical. Machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and maintenance professionals are the typical end users.

This hand reamer is used in light-duty precision reaming tasks where a final pass is needed to bring a drilled or bored hole to an exact finish diameter. The 3/32 inch size makes it appropriate for small-bore work in instrument components, fixtures, jigs, and mechanical assemblies. Its straight shank allows it to be driven by a tap wrench or similar hand-turning tool. It is well suited for both production and maintenance environments where hand control of material removal rate is preferred over machine reaming.

Key Features

• High-speed steel construction for durability in ferrous and non-ferrous materials
• 3/32 inch (0.0938 inch decimal) reamer diameter for small-bore precision work
• 4 straight flutes with right-hand cutting direction for smooth, controlled material removal
• Bright, uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose hand reaming
• Straight shank compatible with standard tap wrenches and hand-reaming drivers
• Compact 2-1/2 inch overall length for use in tight or restricted workspaces

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose hand reamer for use with standard tap wrenches and hand-reaming drivers in small-bore metalworking and machining applications.

Installation Notes

Hand reamers should be installed and operated by qualified machinists or maintenance technicians familiar with precision hole finishing. Always secure the workpiece before reaming and apply appropriate cutting fluid to extend tool life and improve surface finish. Turn the reamer only in the cutting direction -- reverse rotation can chip the flutes and damage the bore. Remove chips frequently during operation to prevent binding and maintain dimensional accuracy.
