Hertel 45675857 Chucking Reamer 0.292 in Solid Carbide

Product Description

The HERTEL 45675857 is a solid carbide chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in machining operations. With a 0.292 inch diameter and a bright, uncoated finish, this reamer delivers accurate, close-tolerance results in through-hole and blind-hole applications. The straight flute geometry provides clean chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. At 3.25 inches overall length with a 1.125 inch flute length, it suits short-reach reaming tasks on CNC machining centers, manual mills, and drill presses. Installation is handled by machinists and toolroom professionals working to tight dimensional tolerances.

This chucking reamer is suited for precision reaming in metalworking environments where tight hole tolerances and smooth bore finishes are required. The straight cylindrical shank allows secure seating in standard drill chucks and collet holders. Right-hand cutting direction is compatible with conventional spindle rotation. Typical applications include reaming drilled holes to final size in ferrous and non-ferrous materials across job shop, production, and toolroom settings.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for hardness, wear resistance, and dimensional stability
• 0.292 inch reamer diameter for precise hole sizing within the 0.2500 to 0.2999 inch range
• 6-flute straight design promotes smooth cutting action and even load distribution
• Bright, uncoated finish maintains sharp edge geometry without coating buildup
• Straight cylindrical shank for direct mounting in chucks and collet holders
• Right-hand cutting direction for use with standard spindle rotation

Compatibility

Designed as a standard chucking reamer for use in CNC machining centers, manual mills, and drill presses equipped with drill chucks or collet systems accepting a straight cylindrical shank in the 0.2500 to 0.2999 inch diameter reamer class.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom personnel. Secure the straight shank firmly in a precision drill chuck or collet holder before operation, and verify runout with a dial indicator prior to cutting. Power down the machine and lock out the spindle before mounting or removing the reamer. Avoid side-loading or using this tool as a drill, as chucking reamers are designed for stock removal of 0.005 to 0.015 inch over final hole size and are not intended for initial hole creation.
