M.a. Ford 27206650A Chucking Reamer 0.0665 in Solid Carbide

Product Description

The M.A. FORD 27206650A is a solid carbide chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in metalworking and machining applications. With a reamer diameter of 0.0665 inches and a tight tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0003 inches, this tool delivers accurate, repeatable results in small-bore finishing work. The ALtima coating improves wear resistance and tool life in demanding materials. At 1.75 inches overall length with a 0.5-inch straight flute and straight cylindrical shank, it is sized for close-tolerance work in compact setups. Licensed machinists and CNC operators are the primary users of this tool.

This reamer is suited for production and job-shop environments where small-diameter hole finishing is required. It fits within the M.A. FORD Series 272 lineup, covering the 0.0500 to 0.0999 inch diameter range. The four-flute, right-hand cut geometry is appropriate for finishing reamed holes in ferrous and non-ferrous metals where tight dimensional control is critical. It is typically chucked in a drill press, CNC machining center, or lathe with a suitable collet or drill chuck.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in small-diameter applications
• ALtima coating extends tool life and reduces friction during cutting
• Diameter tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0003 inches for precise hole sizing
• Four flutes with straight geometry and right-hand cut direction
• Straight cylindrical shank for direct chucking in collets or drill chucks
• Series 272 modified standard - note this item is non-returnable and non-cancelable

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style chucking reamer in the M.A. FORD Series 272 product line, covering reamer diameters in the 0.0500 to 0.0999 inch decimal inch range.

Installation Notes

This reamer is installed and used by machinists operating drill presses, CNC machining centers, or lathes. Always secure the straight shank firmly in an appropriately sized collet or drill chuck before operation. Ensure the workpiece is fixtured rigidly to prevent deflection during the reaming pass. Due to the small diameter and solid carbide construction, avoid side loading or interrupted cuts that could cause tool fracture.
