Value Collection 144429602430000 Chucking Reamer Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 144429602430000 is a straight-flute chucking reamer designed to finish-ream drilled or bored holes to a precise 0.2430-inch diameter. Machined from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright uncoated finish, it delivers clean, accurate results in a wide range of materials including mild steel, aluminum, brass, and plastics. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in drill chucks, collets, and machine spindles. With six flutes and a right-hand cutting direction, this reamer produces consistent surface finish and dimensional control in manual or CNC machine tool applications. It weighs 0.07 pounds and ships as a single unit.

This chucking reamer is suited for machine shop, maintenance, and production environments where hole finishing to close tolerances is required. Typical applications include enlarging and smoothing pre-drilled holes in fixtures, jigs, and mechanical assemblies. The 0.2430-inch diameter falls within the 0.2000 to 0.2499 decimal-inch reamer diameter range, making it appropriate for common fractional and letter-size hole finishing operations in light to medium machining setups.

Key Features

• 0.2430-inch finished hole diameter for precise dimensional control
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability across a broad material range
• Six straight flutes for consistent chip evacuation and smooth bore finish
• Right-hand cutting direction compatible with standard machine rotation
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose machining without added coating cost
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits drill chucks, ER collets, and standard machine spindles

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose chucking reamer for use in drill presses, lathes, milling machines, and CNC machining centers equipped with drill chucks or collet systems accepting a straight-cylindrical shank.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers are installed and operated by machinists and tool-and-die professionals. Always secure the shank fully in the chuck or collet and confirm runout before cutting. Reaming should follow a pre-drilled or bored hole that leaves only a small amount of stock for the reamer to remove. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material and run at reduced spindle speeds compared to drilling to achieve accurate sizing and finish.
