Value Collection 144429604060000 Chucking Reamer Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 144429604060000 is a straight-flute chucking reamer designed to finish-ream drilled or bored holes to a precise 0.4060-inch diameter. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, it delivers consistent sizing and smooth surface finish in a wide range of metals and engineered materials. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in a drill press chuck, lathe tailstock, or CNC spindle. Six evenly spaced straight flutes provide balanced cutting action and efficient chip clearance. Right-hand cutting direction is standard for conventional clockwise spindle rotation. Machinists and tool-and-die technicians are the primary users of this tool.

This reamer is suited for production and maintenance machining applications where a 0.406-inch finished bore is required. Typical scenarios include sizing holes for close-tolerance pin fits, bushing installation, and dowel alignment in ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces. It is compatible with any machine tool equipped with a straight-shank chuck or collet capable of holding the cylindrical shank diameter. The tool is sold individually, making it practical for job-shop and maintenance-repair-operations (MRO) environments where single-unit procurement is preferred.

Key Features

• 0.4060-inch finished bore diameter for precise hole sizing
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability across a broad material range
• Straight-cylindrical shank for secure chuck or collet mounting
• Six straight flutes for balanced cutting and efficient chip evacuation
• Right-hand cutting direction compatible with standard clockwise spindle rotation
• Bright, uncoated finish — ready to run as supplied or with cutting fluid

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose chucking reamer for use in drill presses, lathes, milling machines, and CNC machining centers equipped with a straight-shank chuck or collet sized to accept this tool's cylindrical shank.

Installation Notes

This tool is installed and operated by machinists in machine shop or MRO settings. Always power down and lock out the machine spindle before mounting or removing the reamer. Secure the shank fully in the chuck or collet and verify runout before cutting. Use an appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and achieve the best bore finish; never run HSS reamers dry in steel without lubrication.
