Value Collection SM0405780 Chucking Reamer 0.578 in Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SM0405780 is a straight-flute chucking reamer designed for finishing and sizing drilled or bored holes to a precise 0.5780-inch diameter. Machined from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this reamer delivers consistent dimensional accuracy in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in a drill chuck or collet, and the right-hand cutting direction suits conventional machine operation. With an overall length of 8 inches and a 2-inch flute length, it is well suited for through-holes and shallow blind-hole finishing operations on manual or CNC machines.

This reamer is intended for machine shop, maintenance, and production environments where hole tolerance and surface finish are critical. Typical applications include sizing holes for press fits, clearance fits, and dowel pin locations in metalworking fixtures, tooling plates, and mechanical assemblies. It is installed in lathes, drill presses, milling machines, and similar equipment by machinists and tool-and-die professionals. The 0.5780-inch diameter falls within the 0.5000- to 0.6999-inch decimal inch reamer range.

Key Features

• Precision ground to 0.5780-inch diameter for accurate hole sizing
• High-speed steel (HSS) construction provides hardness and wear resistance across a range of workpiece materials
• Straight flute geometry suits through-hole and shallow blind-hole applications
• Bright, uncoated finish allows easy visual inspection of cutting edges
• Straight-cylindrical shank for direct chuck or collet mounting
• Right-hand cutting direction compatible with standard machine spindle rotation

Compatibility

Designed as a standard chucking reamer for use in drill presses, lathes, milling machines, and CNC machining centers equipped with a drill chuck or collet capable of accepting a straight-cylindrical shank in the 0.5000- to 0.6999-inch diameter range.

Installation Notes

Chucking reamers are installed by qualified machinists following standard machining safety practices. Secure the shank fully in a properly sized collet or drill chuck before operation, and confirm the spindle is completely stopped before making any adjustments or tool changes. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve surface finish. Reaming stock allowance, feed rate, and spindle speed should follow established machining guidelines for the material being cut.
