ADJ HAND REAMER SETS - Garvin Tools

An adjustable hand reamer is a cutting tool used in machining and metalworking to precisely enlarge and shape holes in materials like metal, plastic, and wood. It's an essential tool for achieving accurate and uniform hole sizes. The main feature of an adjustable hand reamer is that it can be adjusted to different diameters, making it a versatile tool. Here are some key characteristics and uses of an adjustable hand reamer:
&nbsp;
<ol>
<li>
Adjustable Diameter: The primary advantage of an adjustable hand reamer is its ability to cut holes of various diameters. It typically consists of multiple blades or cutting edges that can be expanded or contracted to match the desired hole size.
</li>
<li>
Cutting Edges: The cutting edges on an adjustable hand reamer are usually in the form of sharp, helical flutes. These flutes remove material as the reamer is rotated within the hole. The number of cutting edges can vary, but they are typically three or four.
</li>
<li>
Tapered Design: Many adjustable hand reamers have a tapered design, with a slight taper along the length of the flutes. This helps in centering the reamer within the hole and produces a more accurate and consistent result.
</li>
<li>
Square End: The reamer typically has a square or hexagonal end that can be turned by hand or with a suitable tool, such as a wrench, to expand or contract the reamer's blades.
</li>
<li>
Hand Operation: Adjustable hand reamers are designed for manual use, and they are typically turned by hand or with the help of a T-handle or a tap wrench. This allows for precise control over the reaming process.
</li>
<li>
Precision Hole Sizing: Adjustable hand reamers are commonly used to achieve tight tolerances and precise hole diameters in applications where accuracy is crucial, such as in the manufacture of precision parts and tools.
</li>
<li>
Maintenance and Sharpening: Like other cutting tools, adjustable hand reamers require maintenance and occasional sharpening to ensure they cut effectively. They can be resharpened using the appropriate tools and techniques.
</li>
</ol>
When using an adjustable hand reamer, it's essential to apply cutting fluid to reduce friction, prevent overheating, and prolong the life of the tool. It's also crucial to make sure the reamer is properly centered in the hole to maintain accuracy. 
Adjustable hand reamers are valuable tools in machining and metalworking shops for their ability to produce precisely sized and smoothly finished holes. They are commonly used in applications where the fit and finish of machined parts are critical.
