Hertel 72010804 Chucking Reamer 0.1080 in 4 Flute Hss

Product Description

The HERTEL 72010804 is a straight-flute chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in metalworking applications. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this reamer produces accurate, smooth bores in a range of workpiece materials. It measures 0.1080 inches in diameter with a 3-1/2 inch overall length and a 7/8 inch flute length. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill chucks and collet holders. Cutting direction is right-hand. This tool is intended for use by machinists, tool-and-die makers, and maintenance professionals requiring tight-tolerance hole sizing.

This reamer is suited for light to medium reaming operations on ferrous and non-ferrous metals where a close-tolerance finished bore is required. Its 0.1080 inch diameter falls within the 0.1000 to 0.1499 inch decimal inch reamer range, making it appropriate for small-bore finish work on fixtures, bushings, pins, and precision components. The 4-flute configuration promotes stable cutting action and even chip evacuation during through-hole and blind-hole operations on manual mills, drill presses, and CNC machining centers.

Key Features

• 0.1080 inch cutting diameter for precision small-bore finishing
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction provides good wear resistance across common workpiece materials
• 4 straight flutes with right-hand cutting direction for controlled material removal
• Bright, uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose reaming without added coating cost
• Straight-cylindrical shank compatible with standard drill chucks and collet holders
• 3-1/2 inch overall length with 7/8 inch flute length for compact, rigid reach in small-bore applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style chucking reamer for use in standard drill chucks, end-mill holders, and collet systems accepting a straight-cylindrical shank in the 0.1080 inch diameter range.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers should be installed by qualified machinists following standard machine shop practices. Secure the shank fully in the chuck or collet and verify runout before cutting. Always power down and lock out the machine spindle before changing or adjusting tooling. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and maintain bore quality; never attempt to reverse the cutting direction on a right-hand reamer.
