Walter-titex 5072341 Chucking Reamer 2.99mm 6 Flute Cobalt

Product Description

The WALTER-TITEX 5072341 is a chucking reamer designed for precision hole finishing in metalworking applications. Built from cobalt steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this reamer delivers accurate sizing in tight-tolerance bores. It features a 2.99mm reamer diameter with a tolerance of +0.004 mm, a 6-flute spiral configuration with left-hand spiral direction, and right-hand cutting action. The straight-cylindrical shank seats securely in standard chucks. At 61.00mm overall length with a 15.00mm flute length, it is sized for short-reach, high-precision reaming tasks. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals are the primary installers of this tool in CNC machining centers and manual drill presses.

This reamer is suited for finishing pre-drilled holes in ferrous and non-ferrous metals where close bore tolerances are required. The cobalt steel construction provides improved heat and wear resistance compared to standard high-speed steel, making it a practical choice for harder workpiece materials. Its compact flute length targets shallow through-holes and blind bores in the 2.99mm size range. Applications span precision component manufacturing, fixture building, and general machine shop work where final hole diameter must fall within a defined tolerance band.

Key Features

• 2.99mm reamer diameter with +0.004 mm tolerance for precise bore sizing
• Cobalt steel construction for enhanced heat resistance and tool life
• 6-flute spiral geometry for smooth cutting action and improved chip evacuation
• Left-hand spiral with right-hand cutting direction
• Straight-cylindrical shank for secure seating in standard chucks
• Bright, uncoated finish — no coating buildup to affect dimensional accuracy

Compatibility

Designed as a standard chucking reamer for use in CNC machining centers, drill presses, and lathes equipped with compatible chuck systems accepting straight-cylindrical shanks in the sub-3mm diameter range.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of this reamer should be performed by qualified machinists following applicable shop safety procedures. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before mounting or removing the tool from the chuck. The bore should be pre-drilled to the appropriate pilot diameter before reaming to avoid overloading the flutes. Do not use this tool to remove excessive material; reaming is a finishing operation intended for minimal stock removal.
