Built from high-speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this reamer measures 11\/16 inch (0.6875 inch) in diameter with a 7-1\/8 inch flute length and an 11-3\/4 inch overall length. It features a left-hand spiral with right-hand cut geometry, which helps push chips forward and reduce chatter during through-hole reaming. The 3 Morse Taper shank provides solid drive engagement in compatible drill presses and magnetic drills. Structural ironworkers, millwrights, and fabrication shops keep this tool on hand for aligning bolt holes in steel connections where holes may be slightly misaligned before fastener installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bridge reamer is suited for use in structural steel erection, bridge construction, heavy equipment fabrication, and industrial maintenance. The tapered nose and spiral flute design allow it to walk into misaligned holes and gradually bring them into alignment without pre-drilling. It is intended for use in drill presses, magnetic base drills, or similar machine setups that accept a 3MT shank. The 5-flute configuration provides a smooth cutting action across a range of mild and medium-carbon steels. Operators working in field erection and shop fabrication environments will find this tool fits standard ironworker workflows.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e11\/16 inch (0.6875 inch) cutting diameter for standard structural bolt-hole alignment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7-1\/8 inch flute length provides reach for thick steel sections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeft-hand spiral with right-hand cut geometry drives chips forward and reduces chatter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 Morse Taper shank seats securely in compatible machine spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-flute design delivers smooth finish and consistent stock removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction withstands the heat generated in structural steel reaming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use bridge reamer for drill presses and magnetic drills equipped with a No. 3 Morse Taper spindle socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eBridge reamers are installed and used by ironworkers, millwrights, and machinists operating drill presses or magnetic base drills. Power down and lock out the machine before mounting or removing the taper shank from the spindle. Use a proper drift key to seat and eject the Morse Taper shank — do not use hammer blows directly on the tool body. Apply cutting fluid appropriate for steel when reaming to extend tool life and improve hole finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReamer Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11\/16 inch (0.6875 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7-1\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11-3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmall End Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13\/32 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Spiral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Left Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Morse Taper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Taper Designation\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3MT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTool Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.12 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241611\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: ST0730044\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51696911089970,"sku":"ST0730044","price":78.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e56a4c7f591032dde70f7a3c904ccfa9.jpg?v=1788347560","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-st0730044-bridge-reamer-11-16-in-5-flute-3mt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
