Value Collection 144429601645000 Chucking Reamer Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 144429601645000 is a straight-flute chucking reamer designed to finish-size drilled or bored holes to a precise 0.1645-inch diameter. Machined from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, it delivers consistent dimensional accuracy in light to medium production work. The straight-cylindrical shank allows direct mounting in a drill chuck, collet, or machine spindle without special toolholding. With six flutes, this reamer distributes cutting load evenly and produces a smooth, accurate bore surface. It is suited for machinists, tool-and-die shops, and maintenance technicians who require reliable hole finishing in ferrous and non-ferrous materials.

This reamer is used in drilling, milling, and lathe applications where a final hole size of 0.1645 inches is required. It is appropriate for both manual machine tools and CNC equipment operating at controlled feed and speed. Typical applications include finish-reaming pilot holes, dowel pin holes, and precision fit holes in metal workpieces. The right-hand cutting direction makes it compatible with standard machine spindle rotation. It is sold individually and is intended for professional machine shop use.

Key Features

• 0.1645-inch finished hole diameter for precise dimensional control
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction provides durability across ferrous and non-ferrous materials
• Six straight flutes distribute cutting forces evenly for a smooth bore finish
• Right-hand cutting direction matches standard machine spindle rotation
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks, collets, and machine spindles
• Bright, uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose reaming without lubrication restrictions

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose chucking reamer for use in drill presses, lathes, milling machines, and CNC machining centers equipped with a chuck or collet capable of accepting a straight-cylindrical shank in the 0.1500 to 0.1999-inch diameter range.

Installation Notes

Install the reamer securely in a properly sized drill chuck or collet before use. Always power down and lock out the machine before changing tooling. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve surface finish. Do not use this reamer to remove excessive stock — pre-drill or bore the hole to within a few thousandths of the finished size before reaming.
