Value Collection 556U5/0 Taper Pin Reamer Size 5/0 Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 556U5/0 is a straight-flute taper pin reamer designed for enlarging, finishing, and shaping tapered holes to accept standard taper pins. Machined from high speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this reamer is built for general-purpose shop use in metalworking and machining applications. The size 5/0 taper follows a 1:48 taper rate, with a small end diameter of 0.0719 inches and a large end diameter of 0.0966 inches. The square shank provides positive drive engagement in a standard brace or tap wrench. It is typically installed by machinists, tool and die makers, and precision maintenance technicians.

This reamer is suited for producing accurate taper pin holes in light assemblies, shafts, and mechanical components where a standard size 5/0 taper pin fit is required. The 1-3/16-inch flute length provides sufficient cutting surface for through-hole and blind-hole applications in thin to medium cross-section workpieces. The right-hand cutting direction is standard for manual and low-speed machine operation. General-purpose performance makes this tool appropriate for both production and maintenance environments.

Key Features

• High speed steel construction for durability across a range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials
• Straight flute geometry suited for general-purpose taper pin hole finishing
• 1:48 taper rate conforms to standard taper pin sizing conventions
• Square shank provides positive engagement with brace-style and tap wrench drivers
• Bright/uncoated finish for easy visual wear inspection
• Right-hand cut for conventional manual and low-speed machine use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard size 5/0 taper pin reamer suitable for use wherever a 1:48 taper rate, size 5/0 tapered hole is required in general metalworking and precision maintenance applications.

Installation Notes

This reamer is typically used by machinists and maintenance technicians using a tap wrench, brace, or low-speed drill press. Always secure the workpiece firmly before reaming and apply cutting fluid appropriate to the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve finish quality. Do not force the reamer through the material; advance with steady, controlled pressure and back off periodically to clear chips. Inspect the tool for wear or chipping before each use.
