M.a. Ford 27205300 Chucking Reamer 0.0530 in Solid Carbide

Product Description

The M.A. FORD 27205300 is a solid carbide chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in close-tolerance machining applications. Measuring 0.0530 inches in diameter with an overall length of 1.5 inches and a flute length of 0.375 inches, this tool holds a diameter tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0003 inches, making it suitable for work where bore accuracy is critical. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in standard chucks and collets. With four straight flutes and right-hand cutting direction, it delivers consistent, clean finishes in a range of materials. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals typically specify this reamer for production and repair work requiring repeatable hole sizing.

This reamer is intended for use in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual lathes where small-diameter precision reaming is required. The solid carbide construction provides rigidity and wear resistance suited to hard or abrasive workpiece materials. The bright, uncoated finish keeps the tool ready for use as delivered and allows for straightforward inspection of the cutting edges. It is well suited for residential toolroom, production floor, and maintenance applications that demand tight hole tolerances in small bores.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and extended wear life in demanding materials
• 0.0530 inch diameter with tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0003 inches for close-tolerance bore finishing
• Four straight flutes with right-hand cutting direction for smooth, consistent material removal
• Straight-cylindrical shank for compatibility with standard chucks and collets
• Bright, uncoated finish - no coating removal required before initial use
• Series 272 designation for straightforward replacement sourcing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and production chucking reamer for applications requiring a 0.0530 inch finished bore diameter; confirm shank clearance and spindle compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers should be installed by qualified machinists following standard toolroom practices. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before changing tooling. Secure the straight-cylindrical shank firmly in a matched collet or drill chuck to minimize runout. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material, and never force a reamer through an undersized pilot hole - pre-drill or bore to the recommended stock allowance before reaming.
