Hertel 72038060 Chucking Reamer 0.8060 in Hss 8 Flute

Product Description

The HERTEL 72038060 is a straight-flute chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in machine shop and production environments. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this reamer delivers accurate sizing at 0.8060 inches diameter across a 2.5-inch flute length. The straight-cylindrical shank seats directly into standard drill chucks or collet holders, and the 8-flute geometry provides a smooth, stable cut with minimal chatter. At 9.5 inches overall length, it handles deeper reach applications without sacrificing rigidity. Machinists and tool-and-die technicians install this reamer in CNC machining centers, manual knee mills, and drill presses for final bore sizing.

This chucking reamer is suited for production reaming operations where close-tolerance bore finishes are required. The right-hand cutting direction and straight flute profile make it appropriate for through-holes and blind holes in steel, cast iron, aluminum, and similar machinable materials. It is sold individually and fits standard machine tooling setups without modification. The 0.8060-inch diameter falls within the 0.7000 to 0.9999 inch reamer diameter range, making it a standard production size for shops working in that tolerance band.

Key Features

• 0.8060-inch reamer diameter for precise hole finishing to size
• 8-flute straight configuration for smooth surface finish and reduced chatter
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability across a range of workpiece materials
• Bright/uncoated finish — compatible with most cutting fluids and coolants
• Straight-cylindrical shank for direct chuck or collet mounting
• Right-hand cutting direction, standard for CNC and manual machine tools

Compatibility

Designed as a standard machine chucking reamer for use in CNC machining centers, manual mills, and drill presses equipped with drill chucks or collet holders sized for a straight-cylindrical shank at 0.8060 inches diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or tool-and-die technicians. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before mounting or removing the reamer from the chuck or collet holder. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve bore finish. Do not use this reamer for material removal beyond its design purpose as a finishing tool — pre-drill or bore the hole to within standard reaming stock allowance before use.
