Value Collection SM2000108 Hand Reamer 1-1/8 in Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SM2000108 is a straight-shank hand reamer designed to finish-size drilled or bored holes to precise tolerances. Built from high speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this reamer delivers consistent cutting performance in manual or low-speed machine operations. The 1-1/8 inch diameter, 10-flute spiral configuration produces smooth hole walls with reduced chatter and efficient chip evacuation. With a 5-13/16 inch flute length and an 11-5/8 inch overall length, it provides good reach and rigidity for through-hole and blind-hole finish reaming in ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces. Machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians use this type of reamer for precision fitting of shafts, pins, and bearings.

This hand reamer is suited for tool and die shops, maintenance and repair operations, and general metalworking applications where hand-finishing of holes to close tolerances is required. The right-hand cutting direction with left-hand spiral flutes helps pull chips forward and reduces the tendency to screw into the workpiece. It is appropriate for use in steel, cast iron, aluminum, brass, and similar machinable materials where a 1-1/8 inch nominal bore finish is needed.

Key Features

• 1-1/8 inch reamer diameter for precise hole finishing to nominal size
• High speed steel construction provides wear resistance across a range of workpiece materials
• 10 spiral flutes with left-hand helix and right-hand cut for smooth, chatter-reduced cutting action
• Bright, uncoated finish suits general-purpose applications without added coating cost
• Straight shank compatible with standard drill chucks and reamer drivers
• 11-5/8 inch overall length with 5-13/16 inch flute length provides adequate reach for typical bore depths

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose hand reamer for use in any manual or low-speed machine setup requiring a 1-1/8 inch nominal bore finish in metalworking, maintenance, or tool room applications.

Installation Notes

Hand reamers should be installed and operated by machinists or qualified trades personnel familiar with precision hole-finishing procedures. Always secure the workpiece before reaming and ensure the reamer is properly aligned with the existing hole to avoid bell-mouthing or taper. Use an appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve surface finish. Never rotate a hand reamer in reverse, as this will damage the cutting edges.
