Value Collection 144429603710000 Chucking Reamer Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 144429603710000 is a straight-flute chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in metal fabrication and machining applications. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this reamer delivers a nominal cutting diameter of 0.3710 inches and is engineered to produce tight-tolerance, smooth-bore holes. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill chucks or collets, making it easy to mount in a lathe, drill press, or milling machine. With six flutes and a right-hand cutting direction, it provides consistent chip clearance and stable cutting action across a range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals rely on this style of reamer for final-pass hole sizing where drill bits alone cannot achieve the required finish or dimensional accuracy.

This chucking reamer is suited for general-purpose machine reaming in job shops, maintenance facilities, and production environments. It handles finish reaming of through-holes and blind holes where a precise 0.3710-inch diameter is required. The straight-cylindrical shank design is compatible with standard Jacobs-style chucks and collet systems commonly found on manual lathes, drill presses, and CNC drilling centers. It is appropriate for use in steel, cast iron, aluminum, brass, and similar machinable materials when proper feeds, speeds, and cutting fluid are applied.

Key Features

• 0.3710-inch cutting diameter for precise hole sizing within the 0.3500 to 0.3999-inch diameter range
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability across a range of workpiece materials
• Six straight flutes promote smooth chip evacuation and consistent surface finish
• Right-hand cutting direction compatible with standard machine rotation
• Straight-cylindrical shank for direct mounting in drill chucks or collets without adapters
• Bright, uncoated finish suitable for use with standard cutting fluids and lubricants

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose chucking reamer for use in standard drill chucks and collet holders on lathes, drill presses, and milling machines requiring a 0.3710-inch finished bore diameter.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers are installed and operated by machinists and tool-and-die professionals using machine tools. Always power down and lock out the machine before mounting or removing the reamer from the chuck or collet. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve bore finish. Always pre-drill or bore the hole close to final size before reaming, and never reverse a reamer in the cut, as this dulls the cutting edges.
