Value Collection SM01N0046 Chucking Reamer Wire 46 Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SM01N0046 is a wire-gauge chucking reamer designed to finish-ream drilled holes to a precise 0.0810 inch diameter, corresponding to wire gauge size 46. Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, it delivers consistent sizing and smooth bore surfaces in production and maintenance applications. The 4-flute, straight-flute geometry provides balanced cutting action and efficient chip clearance. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in standard drill press chucks, CNC collet holders, and manual drill chucks. At 3.0 inches overall length with a 3/4 inch flute length, it is well suited for shallow to moderate-depth finish-reaming operations.

This reamer is used in metalworking environments where tight hole tolerances are required for small fasteners, pins, or precision fits in the 0.0500 to 0.0999 inch diameter range. Typical applications include fixture building, toolroom work, and production machining on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. It is installed in drill presses, milling machines, and CNC machining centers with appropriate collet or chuck tooling. Right-hand cutting direction is standard for conventional machine setups.

Key Features

• Wire gauge size 46 reamer diameter of 0.0810 inch for precise small-bore finishing
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability across ferrous and non-ferrous materials
• 4-flute straight-flute geometry for balanced cutting and effective chip evacuation
• Bright, uncoated finish suited for general-purpose machining applications
• Straight-cylindrical shank compatible with standard drill chucks and collet holders
• Right-hand cutting direction for use with conventional machine rotation

Compatibility

Designed as a standard chucking reamer for use in drill presses, milling machines, and CNC machining centers equipped with collet or drill chuck toolholding suitable for a straight-cylindrical shank in the small-diameter range.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers should be installed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Power down and lock out the machine before mounting or removing the reamer from the chuck or collet. Apply an appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve surface finish. Never attempt to rotate the reamer by hand in reverse, as back-cutting will damage the flute edges.
