Value Collection 144429603164000 Chucking Reamer Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 144429603164000 is a straight-flute chucking reamer ground from high-speed steel (HSS) for finishing drilled holes to precise tolerances. With a diameter of 0.4844 inches (31/64 inch nominal) and an overall length of 8 inches, this reamer is sized for general-purpose machine reaming on drill presses, lathes, and CNC machining centers. The straight-cylindrical shank seats directly in standard drill chucks or collet holders. HSS construction provides adequate hardness and toughness for reaming steel, cast iron, aluminum, and similar workpiece materials in typical production environments.

This chucking reamer is suited for machine shop, maintenance, and light production work where a 31/64 inch finished bore is required. The 2-inch flute length provides sufficient cutting edge engagement for through-holes and shallow blind holes in that diameter range. A licensed machinist or tool-and-die technician would install this in a rotating spindle application. It is not intended for hand reaming.

Key Features

• 31/64 inch nominal diameter (0.4844 inches decimal) for precise bore finishing
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability across a range of workpiece materials
• Straight flute design suited for machine reaming on through-holes and shallow blind holes
• Straight-cylindrical shank for direct chuck or collet mounting
• 8-inch overall length provides clearance and rigidity for most machine setups
• 2-inch flute length sized for standard depth-of-cut applications in this diameter range

Compatibility

Designed as a standard chucking reamer for use in drill presses, lathes, and machining centers equipped with a drill chuck or collet holder accepting a straight-cylindrical shank in the 31/64 inch diameter class.

Installation Notes

A qualified machinist should install this reamer in a securely tightened drill chuck or collet before powering the spindle. Power down and lock out the machine before changing tooling. Run the reamer at appropriate surface footage for HSS in the workpiece material being machined — do not exceed the machine or tooling manufacturer's recommended speed and feed parameters. Always use cutting fluid appropriate for the workpiece material to extend tool life and achieve a quality finish.
