Value Collection 144429604350000 Chucking Reamer Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 144429604350000 is a high-speed steel (HSS) chucking reamer designed to finish-ream drilled holes to a precise 0.4350-inch diameter. It features a straight-cylindrical shank for secure seating in standard drill chucks and machine collets. The 8-flute, right-hand-cut geometry provides smooth stock removal and a clean bore finish in a single pass. This reamer is intended for use in drill presses, lathes, and CNC machining centers where dimensional accuracy and surface finish are critical. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals rely on this style of reamer when tolerances demand more than a drill alone can deliver.

This chucking reamer is suited for general-purpose reaming operations in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and production environments. The straight flute design works well in through-holes and short blind holes across a range of workpiece materials including mild steel, aluminum, brass, and cast iron. It is a practical choice for any application requiring consistent hole sizing within the 0.4000 to 0.4999-inch diameter range.

Key Features

• 0.4350-inch reamer diameter for precise hole finishing
• HSS tool material provides durability across common workpiece metals
• 8 straight flutes for smooth cutting action and clean bore finish
• Right-hand cutting direction compatible with standard machine spindle rotation
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits standard drill chucks and collets
• Bright/uncoated finish suitable for use with cutting fluid in general machining applications

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose chucking reamer for use in drill presses, engine lathes, turret lathes, and CNC machining centers equipped with standard chuck or collet toolholding systems.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers are installed by machinists and toolroom technicians. Before mounting, ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the chuck or collet is clean and free of chips. Secure the straight-cylindrical shank firmly to minimize runout, as excessive runout will degrade hole finish and dimensional accuracy. Always apply an appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material, and feed at a rate suited to the material and reamer diameter to avoid chatter or premature tool wear.
