Value Collection 14442960136400S Chucking Reamer Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 14442960136400S is a straight-flute chucking reamer designed to bring a bore to a precise finished diameter. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, it is suited for machine finishing operations where tight hole tolerances are required. The reamer measures 13/64 inches (0.2031 inches decimal) in diameter with an overall length of 5 inches and a flute length of 1-1/4 inches. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in a drill press chuck, lathe tailstock, or CNC collet. Right-hand spiral flutes with right-hand cutting direction clear chips efficiently and produce a smooth bore finish in a variety of workpiece materials.

This reamer is used in machine shop, toolroom, and production environments where a drilled hole needs to be brought to a close-tolerance finished size. It is appropriate for use in ferrous and non-ferrous metals as well as plastics where HSS tooling provides adequate hardness and wear resistance. Machinists, tool-and-die makers, and maintenance technicians reach for chucking reamers of this size when fitting dowel pins, bushings, and precision shaft bores. It is sold as a single unit with no minimum order quantity beyond one piece.

Key Features

• HSS construction provides good hardness and toughness for general-purpose reaming
• Right-hand spiral flutes promote chip evacuation and a clean bore surface
• Straight-cylindrical shank compatible with standard drill chucks, collets, and lathe tailstocks
• Bright, uncoated finish suits a wide range of materials without surface-treatment interference
• Not an over/under-size or dowel-pin-specific reamer — standard nominal diameter

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose chucking reamer for use in any machine tool capable of accepting a straight-cylindrical shank at this diameter class.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers are installed and operated by machinists or toolroom technicians using a drill press, lathe, or CNC machine. Always secure the workpiece firmly before starting the cut, and ensure the machine spindle is properly aligned with the pre-drilled pilot hole to avoid deflection and oversize bores. Use an appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve finish quality. Never run a reamer in reverse, as this will damage the cutting edges.
