Value Collection SM2300052 Spiral Shell Reamer 13/16 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SM2300052 is a spiral shell reamer designed for precision hole finishing and sizing in metalworking applications. Built from high-speed steel, it delivers durability and edge retention across a range of materials. The reamer measures 13/16 inches in diameter with an overall length of 2-1/2 inches. It features a left-hand spiral flute geometry combined with a right-hand cutting direction, a configuration that helps pull chips away from the workpiece during operation. A 1/2-inch center hole and Number 5 arbor compatibility allow straightforward mounting to standard arbor setups. Machinists, tool and die workers, and maintenance mechanics are the primary users of this type of tooling.

This shell reamer is suited for finishing bored or drilled holes to a precise 0.8125-inch diameter in production and job-shop environments. It is appropriate for use on ferrous and non-ferrous metals where a close-tolerance fit is required. The arbor-mounted design makes it compatible with drill presses, milling machines, and lathes. It is commonly used in light manufacturing, maintenance and repair operations, and precision fabrication work where reaming to a final diameter is part of the process.

Key Features

• High-speed steel construction for edge retention and wear resistance
• Left-hand spiral flute promotes chip evacuation during cutting
• Right-hand cutting direction for standard forward-feed operation
• 13/16 inch (0.8125 inch) reaming diameter for precise hole sizing
• Number 5 arbor compatibility with 1/2-inch center hole for secure mounting
• Compact 2-1/2 inch overall length suited to close-clearance setups

Compatibility

Designed for use with Number 5 arbors. Fits standard arbor-style reamer holders used on drill presses, milling machines, and lathes equipped to accept shell-style reamers.

Installation Notes

Shell reamers are installed by a machinist or tool operator onto a compatible arbor before mounting in the machine spindle. Ensure the machine is fully powered down and the spindle is locked before mounting or removing the reamer. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and maintain surface finish quality. Inspect the cutting edges for chips or wear before each use and replace the tool if edge condition is compromised.
