Value Collection SM2300056 Spiral Shell Reamer 7/8 in Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SM2300056 is a spiral shell reamer designed for precision hole finishing in metalworking and machining applications. It features a 7/8 inch cutting diameter and a compact 2-1/2 inch overall length, making it suitable for close-tolerance reaming operations. Constructed from high-speed steel, this reamer delivers reliable wear resistance and edge retention across a range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The left-hand spiral flute geometry combined with right-hand cutting action helps control chip flow and reduces chatter during use. A licensed machinist or tooling technician is the typical installer of this product.

This shell reamer is intended for use in manual and CNC machine tool setups where bore refinement and sizing accuracy are required. It is compatible with No. 5 arbors and accepts a 1/2 inch center hole, allowing secure mounting to standard reamer arbors used in drill press, lathe, and milling machine applications. It is well suited for production and maintenance environments where consistent hole tolerances must be maintained in medium to large diameter bores.

Key Features

• 7/8 inch (0.8750 inch) reaming diameter for precise bore finishing
• 2-1/2 inch overall length for compact tool reach
• High-speed steel construction for durability and edge retention
• Left-hand spiral flutes promote controlled chip evacuation
• Right-hand cutting direction for standard feed applications
• Compatible with No. 5 reamer arbors via 1/2 inch center hole

Compatibility

Designed for use with No. 5 reamer arbors equipped with a 1/2 inch center hole mounting interface, compatible with standard drill press, lathe, and milling machine arbor setups.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician familiar with reamer arbor mounting procedures. Secure the reamer firmly to the arbor before use and ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped before mounting or removing the tool. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve surface finish quality. Follow applicable shop safety standards and machine tool operating procedures during setup and operation.
