Measurement System:Inch | Size:17/64" The Alvord Polk 101-0 straight flute
reamer is a tool made of high-speed steel with no finish or coating, and is
most commonly chosen for general purpose reaming by hand. Straight flute
reamers are useful for uninterrupted cuts in general purpose applications.
These reamers make small, circular, and precise enlargements to through and
blind holes. High-speed steel is a general purpose steel for cutting tools and
is compatible with many metalworking materials. It is often lower in price
than other cutting tool materials. Right-hand cut tools rotate
counterclockwise as they cut, when viewed facing the tip of the tool. Hand
reamers have a different shank type than other reamers – the shank itself is
round, but the end opposite the tip has a squared-off profile for a short
length of the shank, which allows the reamer to fit into a tap wrench,
adjustable hand wrench, or standard tap/reamer chucks. The unique curved
profile at the tip is meant to allow the reamer to enter a hole and center
itself. For reamers in the 101-0 series with 0.1250 – 0.5312 inches diameter
there are six flutes, for 0.5512 – 1.1250 inches diameter there are eight
flutes, and for 1.1875 – 1.5000 inches diameter, there are 10 flutes.
Tolerances are +0.0001/+0.0004 inches for reamers in the 101-0 series with
diameters of 0.1250 to 0.2500 inches, +0.001/+0.005 inches for diameters of
0.2656 to 1.0000 inches, and +0.002/+0.006 for diameters of 1.0625 to 1.5000
inches. Reamers are used to finish existing holes. When holes are created
using common applications like drilling or punching they often have minute
imperfections. Their roundness may be flawed, or their diameter may be
slightly smaller than required. Reamers are made to exacting tolerances, so
they can correct such errors and create precisely round holes of exacting
dimensions. Reaming is often used before tapping screw threads. Alvord Polk
manufactures a broad family of cutting tools, brushes, and tooling components,
following ISO 9001 standards for quality and environmental impact of their
products. Their offices and manufacturing facilities have been located in the
United States since 1881.
Features
Straight flute reamers are recommended for general purpose reaming to make minor enlargements to preformed holes with a very precise size and roundness
Straight flute reamers are good for use in through or blind holes without interruptions such as keyways (through holes extend through the entire workpiece, while blind holes do not)
Hand reamers fit into a tap wrench, adjustable hand wrench, or standard tap/reamer chucks
Uncoated (bright) tools have no finish or coating. They are a good choice for general purpose applications
High-speed steel is a common general purpose steel for cutting tools, is compatible with a variety of materials, and tends to be lower in price than cobalt steel or carbide
