0.4845" Straight Shank Hand Reamer

Item Description

The 0.4845 inch straight shank hand reamer is a precision tool widely used in metalworking and machining. Reamers are typically designed to enlarge or refine the diameter of existing holes, ensuring a smoother finish and a precise fit for fasteners or components. This specific hand reamer is characterized by its straight shank, which allows it to be used with minimal equipment, making it ideal for hand-held applications. This tool is commonly found in fabrication shops, machine shops, and maintenance facilities where accurate hole dimensions are critical. It can also be utilized in various industrial sectors, including automotive, aerospace, and construction, among others. The reaver's length of 7-3/4 inches provides a good balance of reach and control, making it suitable for both deep and shallow holes. Unique features of this reamer include its specific diameter of 0.4845 inches, which is suitable for precise drilling applications. The straight shank design allows for easy alignment and stability while reaming, reducing the risk of misalignment that can occur with tapered shanks. Additionally, the unbranded nature of the tool suggests a reliance on basic, effective design principles rather than branding, which may appeal to users looking for cost-effective options without sacrificing quality.
