Hertel 2410314 Chucking Reamer 31/64 in 6 Flute Hss

Product Description

The HERTEL 2410314 is a 6-flute high-speed steel (HSS) chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in metal fabrication and machining applications. With a 31/64 inch (0.4844 inch decimal) diameter and an 8 inch overall length, this reamer delivers accurate, repeatable hole sizing when mounted in a drill press, lathe, or CNC machine. The straight-cylindrical shank ensures a secure grip in standard drill chucks and collets. The bright, uncoated finish is suitable for general-purpose reaming in a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Machinists and toolroom professionals rely on this style of reamer for finishing pre-drilled or bored holes to close tolerance.

This chucking reamer is suited for general machining environments including job shops, production floors, and toolroom operations. The 2 inch flute length handles typical through-hole and blind-hole finishing tasks in mild steel, aluminum, brass, and similar materials. Left-hand spiral flutes with right-hand cutting direction help pull chips away from the cutting edge during operation, improving surface finish and tool life. It is sold individually and is appropriate wherever a 31/64 inch finished bore diameter is required.

Key Features

• 31/64 inch (0.4844 inch) diameter for precision hole sizing
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability across common machining materials
• 6-flute left-hand spiral design promotes chip evacuation and improved bore finish
• Right-hand cutting direction for standard machine rotation
• Straight-cylindrical shank compatible with standard drill chucks and collets
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose use without specialized lubricants

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose chucking reamer for use in drill presses, lathes, mill machines, and CNC equipment accepting a straight-cylindrical shank. Fits any setup requiring a 31/64 inch finished bore diameter.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers should be installed by a qualified machinist. Secure the shank firmly in a collet or drill chuck before operation and verify concentricity to minimize runout. Always apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve surface finish. Never rotate a reamer in reverse, as this will dull the cutting edges.
