Value Collection 144429604530000 Chucking Reamer Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 144429604530000 is a chucking reamer designed to bring bored or drilled holes to a precise finished diameter with tight tolerances. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this reamer features a 0.4530-inch cutting diameter and an 8-flute straight-flute geometry that produces clean, accurate holes in a wide range of workpiece materials. The straight-cylindrical shank allows it to be held securely in a drill chuck or collet chuck on a lathe, drill press, or milling machine. Machinists and tool-and-die technicians reach for this style of reamer when a drilled hole must meet a tight diameter tolerance for press fits, pin fits, or bearing bores.

This reamer is suited for use in machine shop environments handling general-purpose reaming operations on ferrous and non-ferrous metals, plastics, and similar materials. The right-hand cutting direction is standard for conventional clockwise spindle rotation. With a straight-cylindrical shank, it fits directly into a standard drill chuck without an adapter, making it a practical choice for production and maintenance machining alike. It is sold individually and is intended for use in a single-unit application.

Key Features

• 0.4530-inch finished reaming diameter for precise hole sizing
• 8 straight flutes for smooth cutting action and consistent chip evacuation
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction provides durability across a range of materials
• Bright, uncoated finish — ready to use out of the package
• Straight-cylindrical shank for direct chuck mounting on lathes, drill presses, or mills
• Right-hand cutting direction for standard clockwise spindle operation

Compatibility

Designed as a standard chucking reamer for use in any machine tool equipped with a drill chuck or collet capable of holding a straight-cylindrical shank in the 0.4530-inch diameter range.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers are installed and operated by machinists familiar with lathe, drill press, or milling machine operation. Power down and de-energize the spindle before mounting or removing the reamer from the chuck. Always use cutting fluid appropriate for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve surface finish. Do not use a chucking reamer to remove more stock than recommended for the diameter — pre-drill or bore the hole close to final size before reaming.
