Value Collection SM2200060 Shell Reamer 15/16 in Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SM2200060 is a straight-flute shell reamer designed for precision bore finishing in metal fabrication and machining applications. Built from high-speed steel (HSS), it delivers consistent cutting performance and wear resistance in production environments. The reamer measures 15/16 inches in diameter with a 2-1/2 inch overall length, making it suitable for tight-clearance finishing passes. A 1/2 inch center hole accommodates a No. 5 arbor for secure mounting on standard arbor setups. Right-hand cutting direction follows conventional lathe and drilling machine rotation, and the straight flute geometry produces clean, accurate bores in a range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials.

This shell reamer is used in machine shops, toolrooms, and manufacturing facilities where bore finishing to precise tolerances is required. It is well-suited for use on manual mills, drill presses, lathes, and CNC machining centers equipped with a compatible No. 5 arbor. Typical applications include finishing pre-drilled or rough-bored holes in steel, cast iron, and aluminum workpieces. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals reach for shell reamers when a standard chucking reamer lacks the rigidity needed for larger-diameter finish work.

Key Features

• High-speed steel construction for durability and heat resistance during cutting
• Straight flute design for smooth, accurate bore finishing
• Right-hand cut matches standard machine rotation direction
• No. 5 arbor compatibility for secure, concentric mounting
• 1/2 inch center hole for proper arbor fit and alignment
• Compact 2-1/2 inch overall length suited for short-reach applications

Compatibility

Designed for use with a No. 5 arbor. Verify arbor shank size and machine spindle compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Shell reamers are installed by machinists using a compatible arbor mounted to a lathe, drill press, or milling machine spindle. Ensure the machine is fully powered down and locked out before mounting or removing the reamer. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve surface finish. Inspect the arbor and center hole for debris or damage before seating the reamer to ensure accurate concentricity.
