Value Collection SM2200156 Straight Shell Reamer

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SM2200156 is a straight flute shell reamer designed for precision hole finishing in metalworking applications. Measuring 1.875 inches in diameter with an overall length of 3.5 inches, this high-speed steel reamer delivers accurate sizing and smooth bore surfaces on through-holes and blind holes. The right-hand cutting direction suits standard drill press and milling machine setups. It accepts a No. 8 arbor and features a 1-inch center hole for secure arbor mounting. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals rely on shell reamers like this one to bring pre-drilled holes to final tolerance.

This shell reamer is suited for machine shop, maintenance, and production environments where bore accuracy is critical. Shell reamers are typically used after rough boring to achieve close-tolerance fits on shafts, bushings, and bearing bores. The straight flute geometry works well in softer ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Installation requires a compatible No. 8 arbor, which is sold separately. This tool is intended for machine-mounted use on drill presses, lathes, or milling machines rather than handheld operation.

Key Features

• 1.875-inch reamer diameter for precise hole finishing
• 3.5-inch overall length provides adequate reach for standard shell reamer applications
• Straight flute design suited for softer metals and general-purpose reaming
• High-speed steel construction offers durability and wear resistance in production use
• Right-hand cut compatible with standard machine spindle rotation
• 1-inch center hole accepts No. 8 arbor for secure, rigid mounting

Compatibility

Designed for use with a No. 8 reamer arbor featuring a 1-inch pilot. Intended as a machine-mounted shell reamer for drill press, lathe, or milling machine applications requiring a 1.875-inch finished bore diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists. Mount the shell reamer onto a compatible No. 8 arbor before securing in the machine spindle. Ensure the machine is fully powered down and locked out before mounting or removing the reamer. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve surface finish. Do not use this tool handheld.
