Value Collection SM35BS03 Taper Reamer Size 3 Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SM35BS03 is a Brown and Sharpe Taper Reamer designed to produce precision-tapered bores that conform to the Brown and Sharpe taper standard. Sized at Taper 3, this reamer features a small end diameter of 0.312 inches and a large end diameter of 0.453 inches, with a 3-3/8 inch straight flute length and an overall length of 5.5 inches. Constructed from high speed steel with a bright finish, it delivers consistent cutting performance in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Machinists and tool-and-die technicians use this reamer in manual or CNC applications where repeatable taper alignment is required.

This reamer is suited for finishing tapered holes in machine tool spindles, arbors, and fixtures that use the Brown and Sharpe taper system. The straight flute geometry promotes chip clearance in through-bore applications and supports right-hand cutting with standard right-hand rotation. The 13/32 inch shank diameter fits standard collets and chucks used in milling and drilling operations. It is appropriate for both production and maintenance environments where taper bore accuracy is critical.

• High speed steel construction for durability in ferrous and non-ferrous materials
• Straight flute design promotes chip evacuation in through-bore cuts
• Right-hand cut with bright finish for smooth surface result
• 3-3/8 inch flute length and 5.5 inch overall length suit standard workpiece depths
• 13/32 inch shank fits common collets and drill chucks

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or new-installation reamer for applications requiring Brown and Sharpe Taper Size 3 bore geometry in machine tool and fixture work.

Installation Notes

This reamer is installed and operated by machinists using milling machines, drill presses, or manual drilling equipment. Secure the shank fully in the collet or chuck before cutting and confirm the workpiece is clamped rigid. Use appropriate cutting fluid for the material being reamed to extend tool life and improve bore finish. Always bring the spindle to a full stop before measuring or removing the workpiece.
