Value Collection SM0401185 Chucking Reamer Hss 0.1185 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SM0401185 is a chucking reamer designed to finish-ream drilled or bored holes to a precise 0.1185-inch diameter. Constructed from high-speed steel (HSS), this tool delivers reliable cutting performance on a wide range of workpiece materials including mild steel, aluminum, and plastics. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in a drill press chuck, lathe tailstock, or tapping head. With 4 straight flutes and a bright, uncoated finish, the SM0401185 is suited for general-purpose reaming operations where tight dimensional tolerances and smooth hole finishes are required. Right-hand cutting direction follows standard reaming practice.

This chucking reamer is intended for machine-tool applications in job shops, maintenance facilities, and production environments. It is typically used in drill presses, lathes, and milling machines to bring a pre-drilled hole to final size. The 0.1185-inch diameter falls within the small-diameter range and is commonly specified for precision dowel holes, pin fits, and close-tolerance bore work where a standard drill alone cannot achieve the required finish or diameter accuracy.

Key Features

• 0.1185-inch finished-hole diameter for tight-tolerance bore work
• HSS construction provides durability across a broad range of workpiece materials
• 4 straight flutes for smooth cutting action and chip evacuation
• Right-hand cutting direction compatible with standard machine-tool setups
• Straight-cylindrical shank fits conventional drill chucks and lathe tailstocks
• Bright uncoated finish — suitable for general-purpose use without added coating cost

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose chucking reamer for use in drill presses, engine lathes, and milling machine setups requiring a 0.1185-inch finished bore diameter.

Installation Notes

A licensed machinist or experienced toolroom technician should install and operate this reamer. Always secure the workpiece firmly before reaming and ensure the reamer is running true in the chuck to avoid chatter or oversizing the hole. Pre-drill or bore the hole to the appropriate undersize before reaming — do not attempt to ream from solid stock. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve surface finish.
