M.a. Ford. 27215700 Chucking Reamer Size 22 Solid Carbide

Product Description

The M.A. FORD. 27215700 is a solid carbide chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in metalworking applications. It carries a wire gauge designation of No. 22, corresponding to a decimal diameter of 0.1570 inches, and holds a reamer diameter tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0003 inches for tight, consistent sizing. The reamer features four straight flutes with a right-hand cutting direction, an overall length of 2.5 inches, and a flute length of 0.75 inches. The straight shank mounts directly in a drill chuck or collet holder. This tool is intended for use by machinists and toolroom technicians requiring repeatable bore accuracy in production or maintenance environments.

This chucking reamer is suited for finishing pre-drilled or bored holes to close dimensional tolerances in ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The straight flute geometry works well in through-hole and short blind-hole applications where chip evacuation is manageable. The uncoated solid carbide construction provides the rigidity and wear resistance needed for accurate sizing cuts at typical reaming feed rates and speeds. It is commonly used in job shops, tool rooms, and light manufacturing settings where wire-gauge hole sizing is required.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and extended tool life in precision reaming
• Wire size No. 22 with a decimal diameter of 0.1570 inches
• Diameter tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0003 inches for consistent hole sizing
• Four straight flutes with right-hand cutting direction
• Straight shank for direct chuck or collet mounting
• Uncoated finish suitable for a broad range of metals

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style precision chucking reamer for use in standard drill chucks and collet systems accepting a straight shank in the 0.1500 to 0.1999 inch diameter range.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by a qualified machinist familiar with reaming operations. Secure the straight shank firmly in a properly sized collet or drill chuck before operation, and ensure the spindle is fully stopped before tooling changes. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to improve finish quality and tool life. Follow machine manufacturer feed and speed guidelines for carbide reamers at this diameter range.
