Value Collection 144429601740000 Chucking Reamer Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 144429601740000 is a straight-flute chucking reamer designed to finish-ream drilled holes to a precise 0.1740-inch diameter. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this reamer delivers consistent dimensional accuracy in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill chucks or collet holders. Six flutes provide a smooth cutting action and efficient chip evacuation. The right-hand cutting direction is standard for conventional CNC and manual machine tool setups. At 0.17 pounds, the tool is lightweight without sacrificing rigidity at this diameter range.

This reamer is suited for machine shop, maintenance, and production environments where hole finishing to 0.1740 inches is required. It is appropriate for use in drill presses, lathes, and CNC machining centers. Typical applications include sizing holes for close-tolerance pins, bushings, and dowel fits. The 0.1740-inch diameter falls within the 0.1500 to 0.1999 decimal inch reamer range, making it a standard selection for light finishing passes where precise hole sizing is critical.

Key Features

• 0.1740-inch finished hole diameter for precise dimensional control
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability across a range of workpiece materials
• 6-flute straight configuration for smooth cutting and efficient chip removal
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose reaming applications
• Straight-cylindrical shank compatible with standard drill chucks and collet holders
• Right-hand cutting direction for use with conventional machine tool rotation

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose chucking reamer for use in drill presses, lathes, and CNC machining centers that accept straight-cylindrical shank tooling.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers are installed and operated by machinists in machine tool setups. Ensure the workpiece is properly secured and the spindle speed and feed rate are appropriate for the workpiece material and reamer diameter before starting the cut. Always de-energize and lock out the machine before changing or seating tooling. Do not use a chucking reamer as a drill; the tool is designed for finishing pre-drilled or bored holes only.
