USE
This reamer will do production runs and cut material quickly at speeds from 100 to 400 RPM. The use of a full pecking cycle and oil-based coolant is strongly recommended for maximum performance and finish. This reamer can be used by hand with a tap wrench or socket. It can also be used in a drill press or vertical mill with a ½” or larger drill chuck or ½” collet. Keep in mind, this reamer is not a drill. Run this reamer at half the speed (RPM) and twice the feed that you would a drill.
