Value Collection 144429601630000 Chucking Reamer Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 144429601630000 is a straight-flute chucking reamer designed to finish-ream drilled or bored holes to a precise 0.1630-inch diameter. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this reamer delivers accurate sizing and smooth bore surfaces in a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill chucks, collets, and floating holders. With 6 flutes and a right-hand cutting direction, it provides even chip evacuation and consistent cutting action in production and job-shop environments. Licensed machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians are the primary installers of this tool.

This chucking reamer is suited for finish-reaming operations on CNC machining centers, knee mills, drill presses, and manual lathes where close-tolerance hole sizing is required. It falls within the 0.1500 to 0.1999 inch reamer diameter range, making it a practical choice for small-bore work in fixtures, bearing seats, and precision assemblies. It is sold as a single unit and is appropriate for both production runs and one-off repair or fabrication tasks in machine shops and maintenance facilities.

Key Features

• 0.1630-inch finished bore diameter for precise hole sizing
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability across a broad range of workpiece materials
• 6 straight flutes promote even chip evacuation and consistent cutting action
• Right-hand cutting direction compatible with standard spindle rotation
• Bright, uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose reaming applications
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks, collets, and floating holders

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose chucking reamer for use in standard drill chucks, ER collet systems, and floating reamer holders on CNC and manual machine tools requiring a 0.1630-inch finished bore diameter.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers are installed by machinists and toolroom personnel. Before mounting, verify that the spindle, chuck, or collet is clean and free of chips to ensure true runout. Always apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve surface finish. Do not use a reamer to remove excessive stock — the hole should be pre-drilled or bored to within 0.005 to 0.015 inches of finish size before reaming, following standard machining practice.
