Hertel 72023005 Chucking Reamer 0.2300 in Hss 6 Flute

Product Description

The HERTEL 72023005 is a straight-flute chucking reamer designed to finish-ream holes to a precise 0.2300-inch diameter. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, it delivers consistent dimensional accuracy in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The straight-cylindrical shank seats firmly in standard drill chucks or collet holders. With a 6-inch overall length and a 1.5-inch flute length, this reamer suits machine tool spindles in drill presses, lathes, and CNC machining centers where controlled, repeatable bore sizing is required. It weighs 0.15 pounds and is sold individually.

This reamer is intended for use in metalworking applications where a drilled or bored hole must be brought to a tight finished diameter. The 0.2300-inch size falls within the 0.2000-to-0.2499-inch decimal-inch reamer range, making it a standard production and maintenance shop tool. Typical use cases include sizing holes for dowel pins, bushings, and precision-fit shafts in general machining, toolroom work, and repair applications. Right-hand cutting direction suits conventional machine spindle rotation. Machinists and tool-and-die technicians are the primary users.

Key Features

• 0.2300-inch finished bore diameter with bright, uncoated HSS construction
• 6-inch overall length suits extended-reach and standard machine setups
• 1.5-inch flute length provides clean chip evacuation on through and blind holes
• 6 straight flutes for smooth cutting action and consistent surface finish
• Straight-cylindrical shank compatible with standard drill chucks and collet holders
• Right-hand cutting direction matches conventional machine spindle rotation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use chucking reamer for machine tools accepting a straight-cylindrical shank in the 0.2000-to-0.2499-inch decimal-inch diameter range.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers are installed and operated by machinists using drill presses, lathes, or CNC machining centers. Secure the straight-cylindrical shank in a properly sized drill chuck or collet before use, and verify runout is within acceptable tolerance for the application. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve surface finish. Never use a reamer to remove more stock than the tool and operation are rated for — pre-drill or bore to within a few thousandths of final diameter before reaming.
