M.a. Ford 27208350A Chucking Reamer 0.0835 in Solid Carbide

Product Description

The M.A. FORD 27208350A is a solid carbide chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in metalworking and machining applications. Built to Series 272 specifications, it carries an ALtima coating and holds a diameter tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0003 inches, making it suitable for close-tolerance bores where accuracy is critical. The straight flute, right-hand cutting geometry and cylindrical shank allow it to seat securely in a standard chuck or collet. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals use this reamer as a finishing pass tool after drilling or boring to achieve a smooth, dimensionally accurate hole.

This reamer is suited for precision machining operations in job shops, production floors, and maintenance environments. Its 0.0835-inch diameter places it in the small-bore range, appropriate for fine work on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The ALtima coating provides wear resistance, extending tool life in abrasive cutting conditions. No coolant-through capability is present, so conventional external coolant or cutting fluid application is standard practice. This is a modified standard item and is non-returnable and non-cancelable once ordered.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in precision finishing cuts
• ALtima coating for extended tool life in demanding cutting conditions
• Diameter tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0003 inches for close-tolerance hole finishing
• 4-flute, straight flute geometry with right-hand spiral and right-hand cutting direction
• Straight-cylindrical shank for secure chuck or collet mounting
• Modified Standard Series 272 — non-returnable and non-cancelable

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style precision reamer for use in standard chucks and collets accepting a straight-cylindrical shank in the 0.0835-inch diameter range.

Installation Notes

This tool is installed by machinists in milling machines, drill presses, or lathes equipped with an appropriate chuck or collet. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and de-energized before mounting or removing the reamer. Use proper cutting fluid or external coolant during operation; no internal coolant path is present. Always verify hole pre-drill size against the reamer diameter tolerance before running the finishing pass.
