Hertel 45675444 Chucking Reamer 0.233 in Solid Carbide

Product Description

The HERTEL 45675444 is a solid carbide chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in metalworking and machining applications. With a 0.233-inch diameter and a bright polished finish, this reamer delivers tight-tolerance sizing in drilled or bored holes. The straight flute geometry and right-hand cutting direction make it suitable for use in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual lathes. At 3 inches overall length with a 1-inch flute length and a straight shank, it seats securely in standard chucks without additional adapters. Solid carbide construction provides rigidity and wear resistance suited to production reaming in ferrous and non-ferrous materials.

This chucking reamer is used in machine shop environments for finishing holes to close dimensional tolerances. It is appropriate for residential tool rooms, job shops, and production floors where consistent hole diameter and finish quality are required. The 0.233-inch diameter falls within the 0.2000 to 0.2499-inch reamer diameter range, making it a standard selection for that size class. Machinists and toolmakers are the primary installers and users of this tool.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and long tool life in production reaming
• Bright polished finish reduces friction and aids chip evacuation
• 4 straight flutes with right-hand cutting direction for consistent material removal
• Straight shank fits standard chucks without additional toolholders
• 0.233-inch diameter precision ground for tight-tolerance hole finishing
• Compact 3-inch overall length suits confined setups and short-reach applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style chucking reamer for use in straight-shank chuck setups on CNC machining centers, drill presses, and lathes requiring a 0.233-inch finished hole diameter.

Installation Notes

This tool is installed and operated by machinists and toolmakers in machine shop settings. Secure the straight shank fully in a keyed or keyless chuck before operation and verify runout with an indicator before production use. Always ensure the spindle is at a complete stop before mounting or removing the reamer. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve surface finish.
