M.a. Ford. 27202700 Chucking Reamer 0.027in Solid Carbide

Product Description

The M.A. FORD. 27202700 is a solid carbide chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in machine shop and production environments. Built to Series 272 specifications, it features a 0.027-inch diameter with a tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0003 inches, ensuring accurate, repeatable hole sizing in tight-tolerance applications. The 4-flute straight configuration paired with a right-hand cut delivers clean, burr-free finishes in a single pass. This reamer is installed by machinists and toolroom professionals working on small-diameter bore work in metals and engineered materials.

This chucking reamer is suited for use in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual lathes where consistent hole tolerances are required. The straight shank mounts directly into standard chucks or collets, making it a practical choice for high-volume production runs and precision prototype work alike. Its compact 1.5-inch overall length and 0.25-inch flute length are optimized for shallow, small-diameter bore finishing where rigidity and concentricity are critical.

Key Features

• 0.027-inch reamer diameter with +0.0001 to +0.0003-inch tolerance for precision hole sizing
• Solid carbide construction provides superior hardness and wear resistance compared to high-speed steel
• 4-flute straight configuration supports smooth chip evacuation in short-flute applications
• Right-hand cut with right-hand spiral direction for standard machine rotation compatibility
• Straight shank for direct mounting in chucks or collets without adapters
• Uncoated finish - suitable for use with cutting fluid in a wide range of workpiece materials

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style chucking reamer for use in standard machine tool chucks and collet systems accepting straight-shank tooling in the 0 to 0.0499-inch diameter range.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Secure the straight shank fully in the chuck or collet and verify concentricity before operation. Always power down and lock out the machine before changing or adjusting tooling. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to maximize tool life and surface finish quality.
