Value Collection 144429603360000 Chucking Reamer Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 144429603360000 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, it delivers clean, accurate results in a wide range of metals and soft materials. The 0.3360-inch diameter and straight-cylindrical shank make it compatible with standard drill chucks and toolholders on manual lathes, drill presses, and CNC machines. Six flutes provide smooth cutting action and effective chip evacuation, reducing chatter during the finishing pass. Machinists, toolroom technicians, and maintenance professionals use this reamer when hole tolerance and surface finish are critical.

This reamer is suited for general-purpose hole finishing in production and job-shop environments. It handles through-holes and blind holes where a consistent, close-tolerance bore is required. Right-hand cutting direction matches standard machine rotation, making it straightforward to run on conventional equipment without special setup. The 0.3360-inch diameter falls within the 0.3000 to 0.3499 inch diameter range, covering a common sizing window for dowel-fit and close-clearance hole work in ferrous and non-ferrous materials.

Key Features

• 0.3360-inch reamer diameter for precise hole finishing to close tolerances
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction provides durability across a broad range of workpiece materials
• 6-flute straight design promotes smooth cutting action and efficient chip removal
• Bright, uncoated finish suitable for general-purpose applications where coating is not required
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and toolholders without adapters
• Right-hand cutting direction compatible with standard machine spindle rotation

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose chucking reamer for use in drill presses, lathes, and CNC machining centers equipped with standard drill chucks or collet-style toolholders that accept a straight-cylindrical shank.

Installation Notes

Secure the shank firmly in the chuck or toolholder and verify runout before cutting to protect hole accuracy and tool life. Always apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to reduce heat and extend cutting edge life. Pre-drill or bore the hole to within 0.005 to 0.015 inches of final size before reaming — attempting to remove excess stock in a single pass will shorten tool life and degrade surface finish. Allow the reamer to feed through under power and retract with the spindle still turning to avoid marking the bore wall.
