Hertel 2350361 Chucking Reamer 9/16 in Hss 8 Flute

Product Description

The HERTEL 2350361 is a straight-shank chucking reamer designed to finish-ream pre-drilled holes to a precise 9/16 inch (0.5625 inch) diameter. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, it features 8 spiral flutes in a right-hand cutting direction for smooth material removal and accurate hole sizing. Overall length is 8 inches with a 2 inch flute length, and the straight-cylindrical shank mounts directly in a standard drill chuck or machine collet. This reamer is suited for production and maintenance machining applications where close-tolerance hole finishing is required.

This chucking reamer is used in drilling machines, lathes, and machining centers for reaming operations in ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The HSS construction handles a range of workpiece materials encountered in general machine shop, toolroom, and industrial maintenance environments. The straight-cylindrical shank allows quick mounting in standard chucks without the need for a Morse taper adapter. It is a standard catalog replacement for shops requiring reliable OAL and flute geometry consistency across multiple units.

Key Features

• 9/16 inch (0.5625 inch) finished reamer diameter for close-tolerance hole sizing
• 8 spiral flutes, right-hand cutting direction for smooth chip evacuation
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability across a range of materials
• Bright, uncoated finish suitable for use with standard cutting fluids
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and collets without adapters
• 8 inch overall length with 2 inch flute length for reach and rigidity balance

Compatibility

Designed as a standard chucking reamer for use in drill presses, lathes, and CNC machining centers that accept a straight-cylindrical shank tool in the 9/16 inch diameter range.

Installation Notes

This reamer is installed and serviced by machinists and toolroom technicians. Secure the straight-cylindrical shank firmly in a drill chuck or collet before operation and verify runout before cutting. Always apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material and ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped before tool changes. A pre-drilled pilot hole sized appropriately below the finished reamer diameter is required prior to reaming.
