Value Collection ST0610026 Bridge Reamer 13/32 in Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION ST0610026 is a bridge reamer designed for enlarging and aligning holes in structural steel, fabrication work, and ironwork applications. Built from high-speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this reamer features a 13/32 inch (0.4062 inch decimal) cutting diameter and a 5-flute straight configuration for smooth, controlled material removal. The 2MT Morse taper shank mounts directly into compatible drill presses, magnetic drills, or reaming fixtures. At 8.25 inches overall length with a 4.375 inch flute, it handles moderate-depth hole finishing in a single pass. Licensed trades and structural fabricators use this tool for bolt-hole alignment and reaming operations per structural and fabrication standards.

This bridge reamer is suited for structural steel erection, bridge fabrication, and general ironworking where holes require enlarging or aligning before bolt installation. The right-hand cutting direction and straight flute geometry work with standard right-hand drill presses and portable magnetic drills. The 2MT shank fits machines equipped with a No. 2 Morse taper socket. A small end diameter of 7/32 inch allows the tool to enter undersized holes and guide itself before full-diameter engagement. Fabricators and ironworkers in both shop and field settings use this configuration for column, beam, and connection-plate work.

Key Features

• High-speed steel construction provides durability across repeated hole-finishing operations in structural steel
• 5-flute straight design delivers consistent chip clearance and a smooth reamed finish
• 2MT Morse taper shank seats securely in standard taper-socket drill presses and portable mag drills
• Right-hand cut compatible with standard clockwise spindle rotation
• 7/32 inch small end diameter guides entry into undersized or misaligned holes
• Bright uncoated finish allows visual inspection of cutting edge condition before and after use

Compatibility

Designed for use in any machine spindle accepting a No. 2 Morse taper (2MT) shank, including drill presses, radial arm drills, and portable magnetic drilling units configured for taper-shank tooling.

Installation Notes

Bridge reamers are installed and operated by qualified machinists, ironworkers, or fabricators familiar with taper-shank tooling. Before mounting, ensure the machine spindle and taper shank are clean and free of chips or burrs that could affect seating. Power down and lock out the machine before inserting or removing the reamer from the spindle socket. Apply cutting fluid appropriate for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve finish quality.
