Value Collection 144429603250000 Chucking Reamer 0.3250 in Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 144429603250000 is a straight-flute chucking reamer designed to bring bored or drilled holes to precise final diameter. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this reamer delivers consistent sizing at 0.3250 inches diameter. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in drill press or lathe chucks, allowing machinists and tool-and-die tradespeople to hold tight tolerances on through-holes and blind holes alike. Six straight flutes distribute cutting load evenly and evacuate chips cleanly during the finishing pass.

This reamer is suited for general-purpose precision hole finishing in machine shops, maintenance-and-repair operations, and production environments. It is appropriate for use in ferrous and non-ferrous materials where a right-hand cutting direction is required. The 0.3250-inch nominal diameter falls within the 0.3000 to 0.3499 inch reamer diameter range, making it a standard selection for shaft fits, pin bores, and bearing seats in that size class.

Key Features

• 0.3250 inch finished-hole diameter for precise dimensional control
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction resists heat and wear during cutting
• Six straight flutes for balanced cutting action and efficient chip clearance
• Straight-cylindrical shank compatible with standard drill chucks and collets
• Right-hand cutting direction suits conventional machine setups
• Bright, uncoated finish — no coating buildup to affect dimensional accuracy

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose chucking reamer for use in drill presses, lathes, and milling machines equipped with standard chuck or collet toolholding systems capable of accepting a straight-cylindrical shank.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers are installed by licensed machinists or skilled tradespeople using a drill press, lathe, or milling machine. Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the machine is at a proper low-speed, high-feed reaming RPM before engaging the cutter. Always apply cutting fluid appropriate to the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve surface finish. Never reverse the cutting direction while the reamer is engaged in the bore.
