RS PRO HSS Tapered Hand Reamer
Introducing the RS PRO range of HSS tapered Hand Reamers. The high-quality engineering hand tools are essential when cleaning burrs from a drilled hole, or to make a hole bigger. The RS PRO range has two different sizes of tapered hand reamers:
456-894
8 step flutes
The diameter of the top/bottom of the reamer head is 9.8mm/25.10mm
Twist angle for the top/bottom of the individual flute is 80 degrees
The overall length of the reamer head is 122mm (shaft excluded)
Overall tool length is 235mm
Connection shank size is 8mm (hexagon shank)
456-917
6 step flutes
The diameter of the top/bottom of the reamer head is 0.20mm/12.10mm
Twist angle for the top/bottom of the individual flute is 70 degrees
The overall length of the reamer head is 85mm (shaft excluded)
Overall tool length is 190mm
Connection shank size is 6mm (hexagon shank)
Features and Benefits:
The RS PRO hand reamers range are made from heat-treated HSS (High-Speed Steel) for ultra-durability, hardness and premium cutting performance and taper to a narrow point for easy entry into the drilled hole
Chemically blackened finish for corrosion resistance
Suitable for use with most ferrous and non-ferrous metals
Applications:
Reaming is a mechanical process that can aid in creating precision holes and is mainly used after the hole has been drilled using a drill bit. Because of this, reamers need to be very strong and have a high tolerance to ensure that the end result is a smooth-cut hole with no sharp internal surfaces. Reamers can be used by hand or machine and are often used in:
Metalworking industry
Engineering production
Automotive and aircraft industries
How does a reamer differ from a drill bit?
A reamer is stiffer and offers a higher tolerance than a drill bit. They are generally made from HSS which means that the reamer also retains much more of its strength and durability even at high temperatures. A reamer also generally comes in pre-determined sizes, just like a drill bit does, but unlike a drill bit, it cannot start a hole, which is the primary function of a drill bit. A drill bit is normally used as the first step in making a hole and a reamer is normally the last step to ensure a clean, burr-free finish with no sharp edges and to ensure the hole is at the correct size.
