Value Collection 144429601605000 Chucking Reamer Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 144429601605000 is a straight-flute chucking reamer designed to finish-ream drilled or bored holes to a precise 0.1605-inch diameter. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this reamer delivers clean, accurate hole sizing in a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill chucks or collet holders. With six flutes and a right-hand cutting direction, it provides smooth chip evacuation and consistent surface finish in production and maintenance machining operations. Machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and maintenance mechanics reach for chucking reamers when hole tolerance and finish matter.

This chucking reamer is suited for use on manual lathes, CNC turning centers, drill presses, and milling machines where a straight-cylindrical shank can be gripped directly in a chuck or collet. It is appropriate for through-holes and blind holes where a right-hand cutting action is required. Typical applications include sizing holes for dowel pins, bushings, and close-tolerance fastener clearances in light manufacturing, toolroom work, and field maintenance settings.

Key Features

• 0.1605-inch finished hole diameter for close-tolerance work
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability across a broad range of workpiece materials
• Six straight flutes for smooth chip flow and consistent surface finish
• Right-hand cutting direction — standard for conventional reaming operations
• Bright, uncoated finish — ready to use as supplied
• Straight-cylindrical shank for direct chuck or collet mounting

Compatibility

Designed as a standard chucking reamer for use in any machine tool capable of accepting a straight-cylindrical shank tool; compatible with drill chucks, ER collet systems, and similar workholding that accommodates the shank diameter of this tool.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers are installed and operated by machinists and maintenance technicians. Secure the straight-cylindrical shank firmly in a drill chuck or collet before use, and verify runout is within acceptable limits before cutting. Always reduce feed rate and apply appropriate cutting fluid when reaming to extend tool life and achieve the intended hole finish. Never use a reamer to remove more material than the recommended stock allowance for the hole diameter.
