Hertel 45676376 Chucking Reamer 0.355 in Solid Carbide

Product Description

The HERTEL 45676376 is a solid carbide chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in metalworking and machining applications. With a reamer diameter of 0.355 inches and an overall length of 3.5 inches, this tool delivers tight-tolerance bore sizing in a compact, rigid package. The straight flute geometry and right-hand cutting direction suit it for through-hole and blind-hole reaming in a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Licensed machinists and toolroom technicians rely on solid carbide construction for its superior hardness and wear resistance compared to high-speed steel alternatives. The bright, uncoated finish keeps the tool ready for use as received.

This chucking reamer is suited for CNC machining centers, manual mills, and drill presses where a straight shank can be held in a collet chuck or drill chuck. The 1.25-inch flute length provides adequate chip clearance for moderate-depth reaming operations. With six flutes, the tool produces a fine surface finish and consistent hole geometry. It is appropriate for production and toolroom environments where hole tolerances and surface finish are critical to part function.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for extended tool life and dimensional stability
• 0.355-inch reamer diameter for precise hole sizing
• Six straight flutes for smooth cutting action and consistent surface finish
• Right-hand cutting direction compatible with standard spindle rotation
• Straight cylindrical shank for secure collet or chuck holding
• Bright, uncoated finish — no additional prep required before use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style chucking reamer for use in any machine tool equipped to accept a straight cylindrical shank in the applicable diameter range.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before loading or unloading the reamer. Secure the straight shank firmly in a collet chuck or drill chuck rated for the tool diameter before starting the spindle. Always use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to maximize tool life and hole quality.
