Value Collection 144429602450000 Chucking Reamer Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 144429602450000 is a straight-flute chucking reamer designed to finish-ream drilled or bored holes to a precise 0.2450 inch diameter. Constructed from high-speed steel (HSS), the cutter delivers consistent dimensional accuracy on ferrous and non-ferrous materials in machine shop and maintenance environments. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in a drill press chuck, lathe tailstock, or CNC turret without the need for a specialized holder. With 6 straight flutes, the reamer removes material evenly and produces a clean, smooth bore finish. Machinists, toolroom technicians, and maintenance mechanics install this reamer wherever close-tolerance hole sizing is required.

This chucking reamer is suited for use in manual drill presses, engine lathes, turret lathes, and CNC turning centers where the spindle provides controlled feed and speed. It is appropriate for through-holes and blind holes in general metalworking applications across job shops, MRO environments, and production runs. The 0.2450 inch diameter falls within the 0.2000 to 0.2499 inch decimal-inch reamer diameter range, making it a standard selection for sizing holes in that class of precision work.

Key Features

• 0.2450 inch finished hole diameter for precise bore sizing
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability on ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces
• 6 straight flutes provide even stock removal and a smooth bore finish
• Straight-cylindrical shank compatible with standard drill chucks and lathe tailstocks
• Standard decimal-inch sizing within the 0.2000 to 0.2499 inch diameter range

Compatibility

Designed as a standard chucking reamer for use in any machine tool equipped with a drill chuck or straight-bore collet capable of accepting a straight-cylindrical shank in the 0.2450 inch diameter class.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers are installed and operated by machinists and toolroom technicians using a drill press, lathe, or CNC machine. Always secure the shank fully in the chuck or collet before starting the spindle, and confirm the workpiece is rigidly fixtured. Use the recommended cutting speed for HSS tooling on the specific workpiece material and apply cutting fluid to extend tool life and improve finish quality. Never hand-turn a chucking reamer in a workpiece, as this is a machine-driven tool and requires controlled feed to maintain accuracy.
