Value Collection SM2000010 Hand Reamer 5/32 in Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SM2000010 is a hand reamer designed to finish and size pre-drilled holes to a precise 5/32 inch diameter. Built from high speed steel with a bright uncoated finish, it delivers consistent cutting performance on ferrous and non-ferrous metals, plastics, and similar materials. The six-flute spiral design with left-hand spiral and right-hand cut geometry reduces chatter and produces a smooth bore finish. With a 1-5/8 inch flute length and a 3-1/4 inch overall length, this compact reamer is well suited for close-tolerance work in tight or shallow applications. Machinists, tool-and-die workers, and maintenance technicians install this tool by hand or in a tap wrench.

This reamer is used in metal fabrication shops, maintenance and repair operations, and light manufacturing environments where hand reaming is required to bring drilled holes to final size or clean up existing bores. The straight shank seats securely in a tap wrench or brace for controlled hand operation. It is appropriate for use on workpieces where a powered reamer would be impractical or where precise feed control is needed to hold tight hole tolerances.

Key Features

• 5/32 inch reamer diameter for precise hole finishing to close tolerances
• Six-flute spiral geometry minimizes chatter and improves surface finish
• Left-hand spiral with right-hand cut draws chips away from the finished bore
• High speed steel construction provides durability across a range of workpiece materials
• Bright uncoated finish allows easy inspection of cutting edges
• Straight shank compatible with standard tap wrenches and braces

Compatibility

Designed as a standard hand reamer for use in any tap wrench or brace accepting a straight shank. Suitable for finishing 5/32 inch diameter holes in typical machine shop and maintenance repair applications.

Installation Notes

This tool is installed and operated by hand using a tap wrench or similar holder — do not drive it with a power tool at high speed without appropriate setup. Secure the workpiece firmly before reaming and apply cutting fluid appropriate for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve surface finish. Apply steady, even forward pressure while rotating in the cutting direction; reversing rotation under load can damage cutting edges. Always wear appropriate eye protection and follow shop safety procedures when reaming.
