Hertel 45676384 Chucking Reamer 0.3560 in Solid Carbide

Product Description

The HERTEL 45676384 is a solid carbide chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in machine shop and production environments. With a reamer diameter of 0.3560 inches and a straight-cylindrical shank, it mounts directly in standard chucks or collets for rigid, accurate operation. The 6-flute, right-hand cutting configuration delivers smooth material removal and consistent surface finish. At 3-1/2 inches overall length with a 1-1/4 inch flute length, this reamer is suited for moderate-depth through-holes and blind holes requiring tight dimensional tolerances. Machinists and toolroom professionals install this tool in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual lathes wherever repeatable bore sizing is required.

This chucking reamer is appropriate for finishing operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials in production and job-shop settings. The bright, uncoated finish keeps the tool suitable for use with a wide range of cutting fluids and materials. It is sized within the 0.3500 to 0.3999 inch reamer diameter range, making it a direct fit for applications requiring a 0.3560 inch finished bore. Typical uses include bearing seat preparation, dowel pin hole finishing, and precision fitment bores in mechanical assemblies.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity, wear resistance, and dimensional stability in demanding cutting conditions
• 6-flute straight flute geometry provides smooth cutting action and consistent surface finish
• Right-hand cutting direction for standard machine spindle compatibility
• Straight-cylindrical shank for direct chuck or collet mounting without adapters
• Bright, uncoated finish compatible with a broad range of workpiece materials and cutting fluids
• 0.3560 inch reamer diameter for precise, repeatable bore sizing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style precision cutting tool for use in standard chucks and collets on CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual lathes requiring a straight-cylindrical shank reamer in the 0.3500 to 0.3999 inch diameter range.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by qualified machinists familiar with reaming procedures and machine tool operation. Secure the shank fully in a chuck or collet and verify runout before cutting to protect bore accuracy and tool life. Always use an appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material and ensure the spindle speed and feed rate are set within the tool manufacturer's recommended range for solid carbide reamers. Inspect the cutting edges for chipping or wear before each use.
