Hertel 45674967 Chucking Reamer 0.172 in Solid Carbide

Product Description

The HERTEL 45674967 is a solid carbide chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in machine tool applications. With a reamer diameter of 0.172 inches and a four-flute straight flute geometry, it delivers accurate, repeatable bore sizing in ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces. The straight shank is compatible with standard drill chucks and collet holders. At 2.75 inches overall length with a 0.875-inch flute length, this reamer fits compact spindle setups without sacrificing reach. The bright, uncoated carbide surface is suited for use with cutting fluids where surface finish and dimensional accuracy are the priority.

This chucking reamer is intended for use in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual lathes where a pre-drilled hole requires finishing to close tolerances. It is appropriate for production and job-shop environments where hole quality in the 0.150 to 0.199-inch diameter range is required. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals specify this reamer for applications requiring consistent finish and geometry on through-holes and blind holes in metal workpieces.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in precision reaming
• 0.172-inch reamer diameter for finishing holes in the 0.1500-0.1999-inch decimal inch range
• Four-flute straight flute geometry for smooth cutting action and accurate sizing
• Straight shank for compatibility with standard chucks and collet holders
• Bright uncoated finish suited for use with cutting fluids on a broad range of metals
• Right-hand cut direction for standard spindle rotation setups

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard chucking reamer for machine tool setups requiring a straight-shank reamer in the 0.150 to 0.199-inch diameter range.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by a qualified machinist following standard shop safety procedures. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and powered down before mounting or removing the reamer from the chuck or collet holder. Verify shank seating and runout before initiating a cut. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and maintain surface finish quality.
