M.a. Ford. 27225200T Chucking Reamer 0.252 in Carbide

Product Description

The M.A. FORD. 27225200T is a solid carbide chucking reamer designed to produce precision-finished, close-tolerance holes in metal workpieces. It carries a reamer diameter of 0.2520 inches with a tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0003 inches, making it well suited for applications where hole size and finish are critical. The tool features a titanium nitride (TiN) coating that extends cutting life and reduces friction during operation. With an overall length of 3 inches and a 1-inch flute length, it fits standard chuck setups on milling machines, drill presses, and CNC machining centers. Machinists and tooling technicians install this reamer as part of finishing operations after drilling or boring.

This reamer is appropriate for precision hole-finishing in ferrous and non-ferrous metals in both job-shop and production machining environments. The straight flute geometry and right-hand cutting direction suit stable, low-vibration setups in through-hole and blind-hole applications within the 0.2500 to 0.2999 inch diameter range. It is classified as a modified standard item and is non-returnable and non-cancelable once ordered. Series 272 identifies the product family within the M.A. FORD. catalog.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in precision reaming
• TiN coating reduces friction and extends tool life
• 0.2520 inch diameter with +0.0001 to +0.0003 inch tolerance for close-tolerance hole finishing
• 4-flute, straight-flute geometry with right-hand cutting direction
• Straight-cylindrical shank for direct chuck mounting
• 3 inch overall length with 1 inch flute length for compact setups

Compatibility

Designed as a standard chucking reamer for use in any machine tool equipped with a compatible chuck or collet accepting a straight-cylindrical shank in the 0.2500 to 0.2999 inch diameter class.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or tooling technicians. Secure the straight-cylindrical shank firmly in a precision chuck or collet before use, and verify runout before beginning the reaming pass. Shut down and de-energize the machine spindle completely before installing or removing the tool. Do not use this reamer as a drill; always pre-drill or bore the hole to near-final size before reaming.
