Value Collection SM2300248 Spiral Shell Reamer 2-3/4 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SM2300248 is a spiral shell reamer designed for precision hole finishing and sizing in metalworking applications. Built from high-speed steel, this reamer delivers consistent cutting performance and durability across a range of materials. It measures 2.75 inches in diameter with an overall length of 4 inches. The spiral flute geometry promotes smooth chip evacuation, reducing heat buildup and improving surface finish quality. A 1.5-inch center hole accommodates standard arbor setups, and the tool is rated for No. 10 arbor compatibility. Right-hand cutting direction with left-hand spiral flutes provides a pulling action that helps stabilize the tool during operation. Machinists and tool and die professionals are the primary installers.

This shell reamer is suited for bench or machine reaming operations in job shop, production machining, and maintenance repair environments. It is used to bring pre-bored or pre-drilled holes to final diameter tolerance with a refined surface finish. Typical applications include finishing bores in ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The right-hand cut with No. 10 arbor compatibility makes it compatible with standard reamer arbor drivers used on drill presses, lathes, and vertical milling machines.

Key Features

• High-speed steel construction for durability and wear resistance across metalworking materials
• 2.75-inch reamer diameter for finishing larger bores to tight tolerances
• Spiral flute design promotes efficient chip removal and smooth bore finish
• Right-hand cutting direction with left-hand spiral for tool-stabilizing pull action
• 1.5-inch center hole fits No. 10 arbor for use with standard reamer arbor drivers
• 4-inch overall length suits bench and machine reaming setups

Compatibility

Designed for use with No. 10 reamer arbors. Compatible with standard drill press, lathe, and vertical milling machine setups that accept shell-style reamers on a driven arbor.

Installation Notes

Shell reamers are installed by machinist or toolroom personnel. Secure the reamer firmly onto a No. 10 arbor before use and verify that the arbor is properly seated in the machine spindle. Always bring the workpiece bore close to final diameter by drilling or boring before reaming — do not use a shell reamer to remove excessive stock. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to prolong tool life and improve surface finish.
