Value Collection SM31P0048 Taper Pipe Reamer 3/4 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SM31P0048 is a straight-flute taper pipe reamer designed to finish-ream tapered pipe threads to the correct diameter and taper angle for leak-free threaded pipe connections. Built from high-speed steel with a bright finish, this reamer delivers consistent cutting performance on ferrous and non-ferrous pipe materials. It features a 0.962-inch reamer diameter, a 0.876-inch small end diameter, and a 1-3/8-inch flute length. The cylindrical straight shank fits standard drill press chucks and hand brace drives. Overall length is 3.25 inches. This tool is used by plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors wherever pipe threads require final sizing before fitting assembly.

This reamer is suited for residential and commercial pipe fabrication work involving 3/4-inch nominal pipe. It is typically used in situations where cut pipe ends need reaming to precise taper dimensions before threading or fitting insertion. The straight flute geometry and right-hand cut make it appropriate for use in drill presses, hand braces, or low-speed power drivers where controlled material removal is required. It is a standard bench or field tool for plumbing rough-in, process piping, and mechanical systems work.

Key Features

• High-speed steel construction provides durability across repeated use on pipe ends
• Straight flute geometry suits controlled, low-vibration reaming in drill press or hand-drive applications
• Right-hand spiral and right-hand cut for standard forward-rotation operation
• 0.962-inch reamer diameter and 0.876-inch small end diameter sized for 3/4-inch nominal pipe
• Bright finish reduces friction during cutting and eases chip clearance
• Cylindrical straight shank fits standard drill chuck without special tooling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement taper pipe reamer for 3/4-inch nominal pipe applications with a reamer diameter range of 0.700 to 0.999 inches.

Installation Notes

This tool is installed and operated by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or mechanical contractors. Before reaming, ensure the pipe is secured in a vise or pipe stand to prevent rotation during the cut. Use appropriate cutting fluid to extend tool life and improve surface finish. Always wear eye protection when operating reamers, and confirm the reamed diameter with a pipe thread gauge before assembly.
