M.a. Ford 27237600 Chucking Reamer 0.376 in Solid Carbide

Product Description

The M.A. FORD 27237600 is a solid carbide chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in machining applications. With a reamer diameter of 0.376 inches and a tight tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0003 inches, this tool delivers consistent, accurate bores in a single pass. The straight flute geometry and right-hand cutting direction make it well suited for through-hole and short blind-hole reaming. At 3.5 inches overall length with a 1.25-inch flute length and six flutes, the 27237600 is a compact, rigid tool built for use in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual mills where dimensional accuracy is critical.

This chucking reamer is intended for use in metalworking environments where close-tolerance hole sizing is required. The straight shank allows direct mounting in standard chucks, collets, or floating holders. The uncoated solid carbide construction performs well in cast iron, aluminum, brass, and other non-ferrous or moderately hard ferrous materials. It is typically installed by machinists, tool-and-die makers, and maintenance technicians working to finished bore specifications in production or repair settings.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance
• 0.376-inch reamer diameter with a tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0003 inches
• Six straight flutes for smooth, consistent material removal
• Right-hand cutting direction for standard spindle rotation
• Straight shank fits standard chucks and collets without adapters
• Uncoated finish suitable for use with cutting fluids on a wide range of materials

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style chucking reamer for use in standard straight-shank toolholders, chucks, and collets on CNC machining centers, drill presses, and manual milling machines.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers should be installed by qualified machinists following established shop practices. Always power down and lock out the spindle before mounting or removing the tool. Secure the straight shank firmly in the chuck or collet to prevent runout, which directly affects bore tolerance. Use an appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and maintain surface finish.
