Value Collection 144429600024000 Chucking Reamer 24 Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 144429600024000 is a straight-flute chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in metalworking applications. Built from high-speed steel (HSS), it delivers consistent cutting performance on a range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The reamer measures 0.1520 inches in diameter, corresponding to Wire Size 24, with an overall length of 4 inches and a 1-inch flute length. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill press chucks and lathe tailstock chucks. Machinists and toolroom professionals use this reamer to bring drilled or bored holes to final dimensional tolerance with a smooth, accurate finish.

This chucking reamer is suited for light material removal passes on through-holes and blind holes in machine shop, maintenance, and production environments. The straight-cylindrical shank makes it compatible with common collet sets and drill chucks without requiring a specialized holder. At Wire Size 24 (0.1520 inches), it fills a precise niche in small-diameter hole finishing where twist drills alone cannot hold the required tolerance. It is appropriate for use on drill presses, lathes, and milling machines in both job-shop and production settings.

Key Features

• HSS construction provides durability and resistance to heat generated during cutting
• Wire Size 24 diameter of 0.1520 inches for precise small-bore finishing
• Straight-flute geometry suited to finishing ductile and non-interrupted cuts
• Straight-cylindrical shank compatible with standard drill chucks and collets
• 4-inch overall length with 1-inch flute length for controlled material removal
• Not an over/under size reamer — ground to nominal Wire Size 24 diameter

Compatibility

Designed as a standard chucking reamer for use in drill press chucks, lathe tailstocks, and milling machine collets that accept a straight-cylindrical shank in the corresponding diameter range.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers are installed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the machine spindle is at the appropriate low RPM for reaming before starting the cut. Apply cutting fluid or tapping oil to extend tool life and improve hole finish. Never rotate a reamer in reverse, as this dulls the cutting edges and degrades hole quality.
