M.a. Ford 27214700 Chucking Reamer Size 26 Solid Carbide

Product Description

The M.A. FORD 27214700 is a solid carbide chucking reamer designed to finish-ream precise holes to a wire size 26 diameter of 0.1470 inches. Built from solid carbide, the tool delivers the rigidity and wear resistance required for consistent diameter control in production and maintenance environments. It features a straight flute geometry with a right-hand cutting direction and an uncoated finish. With an overall length of 2.5 inches and a flute length of 0.75 inches, this reamer is suited for shallow-bore finishing operations. Machinists and toolroom technicians install this tool in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual lathes using a standard chuck.

This reamer is used in applications requiring tight-tolerance hole finishing in the 0.1000 to 0.1499 inch diameter range. Wire size 26 reamers at 0.1470 inches are common in precision machining of instrument components, hydraulic bodies, and small mechanical assemblies where bore finish and dimensional accuracy are critical. The straight shank allows direct chucking without an adapter, making tool changes fast in production settings. It is appropriate for both ferrous and non-ferrous materials when the correct feeds and speeds are applied.

Key Features

• Reamer diameter of 0.1470 inches, wire size 26, with a tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0003 inches for consistent finish sizing
• Solid carbide construction provides superior rigidity and edge retention compared to high-speed steel alternatives
• Straight flute design suits non-interrupted cuts and free-cutting materials
• Right-hand spiral and cutting direction for standard machine spindle rotation
• Straight shank accepts standard drill chucks without additional toolholding hardware
• 4-flute configuration balances material removal rate with surface finish quality

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style precision chucking reamer for use in any machine tool spindle accepting a straight-shank tool at the applicable collet or chuck bore size.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or toolroom technicians. Power down the machine spindle completely before inserting or removing the reamer from the chuck. Secure the straight shank with sufficient clamping force to prevent slippage during the cut, and verify runout with a dial indicator before production use. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve bore finish quality.
