M.a. Ford 27223620 Chucking Reamer 6mm Solid Carbide

Product Description

The M.A. FORD 27223620 is a solid carbide chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in metalworking and machining applications. With a 6 mm (0.2362 inch) reamer diameter and a 3-inch overall length, this tool delivers tight-tolerance results within a +0.005/+0.010 mm diameter tolerance band. The straight flute geometry and right-hand cutting direction make it well suited for through-hole reaming in a variety of workpiece materials. It is installed and operated by machinists, tool and die makers, and precision machining professionals working with CNC machines, drill presses, or manual lathes.

This chucking reamer is intended for precision hole sizing in general machining environments where bore finish and dimensional accuracy are critical. The straight shank allows it to seat directly in standard drill chucks or collets without adapters. With a 1-inch flute length and four flutes, it provides consistent material removal and smooth surface finish in short to medium-depth bores. It is appropriate for use in both production and job-shop settings where solid carbide tooling is specified for hardness and wear resistance.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for high hardness and extended tool life compared to HSS alternatives
• 6 mm reamer diameter with +0.005/+0.010 mm tolerance for precision hole sizing
• Straight flute geometry suited for reaming through holes in a wide range of materials
• Right-hand cut and right-hand spiral direction for standard machine spindle operation
• Straight shank seats directly in drill chucks or collets without an adapter
• Uncoated finish — no coating buildup to affect dimensional accuracy on close-tolerance work

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-specification solid carbide chucking reamer for use in standard drill chucks or collet systems accepting a straight shank; verify shank diameter clearance before installation.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers are installed by qualified machinists and toolroom personnel. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and power is locked out before changing tooling. Seat the straight shank fully and evenly in the chuck or collet before tightening to prevent runout. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material, and never reverse spindle direction during a reaming pass, as this can damage the cutting edges.
