Value Collection 144429600580000 Chucking Reamer 5/8 in Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 144429600580000 is a straight-flute chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in metal and other machinable materials. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this reamer delivers accurate sizing for holes in the 0.500 to 0.699 inch diameter range, with a nominal cutting diameter of 0.625 inches (5/8 inches). The 9-inch overall length and 2.25-inch flute length make it well suited for through-hole and moderate-depth blind-hole applications. It is installed in a drill press, lathe, or CNC machine by machinists and toolmakers requiring tight bore tolerances.

This chucking reamer is used in general machining environments, tool rooms, and production shops where consistent hole diameter and surface finish are required after drilling. The straight-cylindrical shank allows direct chuck mounting without adapters, simplifying setup. Right-hand cutting direction makes it compatible with standard right-hand spindle rotation found on most machine tools. It is appropriate for ferrous and non-ferrous metals where HSS tooling provides adequate hardness and heat resistance for the feed rates involved.

Key Features

• 0.625 inch (5/8 inch) nominal reamer diameter for precise hole finishing
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction provides hardness and wear resistance for metal boring operations
• Straight-cylindrical shank mounts directly in a standard drill chuck or collet without adapters
• Straight flute geometry suited for through-holes and short blind holes in most machinable materials
• Bright, uncoated finish — no coating buildup to affect dimensional accuracy
• Right-hand cutting direction compatible with standard machine spindle rotation

Compatibility

Designed as a standard chucking reamer for use in drill presses, engine lathes, turret lathes, and CNC machining centers equipped with a drill chuck or collet capable of accepting a straight-cylindrical shank.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolmaker. Always power down and lock out the machine spindle before mounting or removing the reamer. Secure the straight-cylindrical shank firmly in the chuck or collet before initiating any cut, and confirm proper alignment to avoid tool deflection or hole oversizing. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve surface finish quality.
