M.a. Ford. 27206250 Chucking Reamer 1/16 in Solid Carbide

Product Description

The M.A. FORD. 27206250 is a solid carbide chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in metalworking and machining applications. With a 1/16 inch (0.0625 inch) diameter and a right-hand cutting direction, this reamer enlarges and refines pre-drilled holes to tight tolerances. It holds a reamer diameter tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0003 inches, making it suitable for close-tolerance work where surface finish and dimensional accuracy are critical. The straight flute geometry and straight shank make it compatible with standard drill chucks and collet holders. Solid carbide construction provides rigidity and wear resistance when working in harder materials.

This reamer is intended for use in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual lathes where small-diameter precision reaming is required. The 3/8 inch flute length and 1-1/2 inch overall length suit it for shallow hole finishing in a range of workpiece materials. It is typically installed and operated by machinists and tool-and-die professionals in production and job-shop environments. The uncoated finish makes it straightforward to inspect for wear and to resharpen when needed.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and extended tool life in harder materials
• Right-hand cutting direction with straight flute geometry for clean, accurate material removal
• Diameter tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0003 inches for close-tolerance hole finishing
• 4-flute design provides balanced cutting action and good chip clearance in small-diameter bores
• Straight shank compatible with standard drill chucks and collet systems
• Uncoated finish allows easy inspection and facilitates resharpening

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style precision chucking reamer suitable for small-diameter hole finishing operations on CNC and manual machine tools equipped with standard straight-shank toolholding systems.

Installation Notes

This reamer is installed by machinists using a standard drill chuck or collet appropriate for a straight shank. Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the spindle speed and feed rate are set per the material being reamed before engaging the tool. Always pre-drill the hole to the correct undersize diameter before reaming. Do not use this tool to remove excess stock; it is a finishing tool only.
