    Reamer Sets

    Keep a variety of reamer sizes on hand for finishing holes.
    Round Shank
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Reamers. Reamer Sets, Round Shank.
    These reamers fit in the chuck of drill presses, turret lathes, and other machine and power tools, making them the most common shank type.
    Straight Flute—The most common flute style, these reamers are suitable for a wide range of applications, but not recommended for holes with a keyway or other breaks in the surface.
    High-Speed Steel—Durable and wear resistant, these are good for general purpose reaming in most materials.
    Jobbers' Length—The same length as jobbers' drill bits, these reamers save setup time when you want to drill and ream on the same machine, such as a drill press or bench lathe.

    High-Speed Steel—Durable and wear resistant, these are good for general purpose reaming in most materials.
    Cobalt Steel—With better heat and wear resistance than high-speed steel, these reamers run up to 25% faster, last longer, and perform better on hard materials, such as cast iron, hardened steel, titanium, and stainless steel.
    Carbide—For the highest level of accuracy when cutting hard materials, these are our hardest, strongest, and most wear-resistant reamers. They're used on materials such as iron, hardened steel, steel alloys, and plastic. Their hardness means they are brittle, so a highly rigid setup, such as a CNC machine, is necessary to prevent the reamer from breaking.

    Impact Wrench Reamers for Hole Alignment

    Driven by the high torque of an impact wrench, these reamers enlarge holes to correct misalignment and overlap faster than with a power drill. The tapered shape fits into narrow holes and makes more contact than straight reamers when removing material. Also known as bridge and car reamers.
    Hex Shank
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Contains Annotated. Reamers. Impact Wrench Reamers for Hole Alignment, Hex Shank, Spiral Flute.

    Spiral Flute

    The shank fits hex impact sockets, so you can use an impact wrench to both ream the hole and install a fastener.
    Spiral Flute—Since these reamers clear chips better than straight flutes, they leave holes with a smoother finish. They're better for holes with breaks in the surface, such as a keyway, because they cut continuously across the breaks instead of moving in and out.
    High-Speed Steel—Durable and wear resistant, these are good for general purpose reaming in most materials.
    Left-Hand Spiral—These reamers push chips downward as they cut, so they're often used in through holes.
    Strong Hold—Magnets on the shank’s end keep these reamers from accidentally falling out of your tool.

    VersaDrive Hex Shank

    Spiral Flute

    All VersaDrive tools have the same hex shank, so you need only one chuck (sold separately) to fit them into your impact wrench. This lets you quickly switch from your reamer to a drill bit, tap, or any other cutting tool you need to complete the next job. For jobs that don’t require the torque of an impact tool, you can also fit these reamers directly into a 1/2" chuck on a standard power drill.
    Do not use these reamers on holes that were flame or plasma cut.
    Spiral Flute—Since these reamers clear chips better than straight flutes, they leave holes with a smoother finish. They're better for holes with breaks in the surface, such as a keyway, because they cut continuously across the breaks instead of moving in and out.
    Titanium Nitride (TiN)-Coated Hardened High-Speed Steel—Coated to create less friction than uncoated high-speed steel reamers, these run faster and last twice as long. They’re also hardened for increased wear resistance, making them good for cutting hard metals.

    Impact Wrench Tap, Drill Bit, and Reamer Sets

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Tap, Drill Bit, and Reamer Sets. Impact Wrench Tap, Drill Bit, and Reamer Sets, 28 Pieces.

    28 Pieces

    With everything but the impact wrench, these sets are the fastest way to prepare holes with a hand tool. They include a selection of cutting tools and a chuck that lets you swap them in and out of your impact wrench. Made with hardened steel, the cutting tools are built to handle the high torque of the wrench without snapping, even in hard metals. This also means the bits cut holes two times faster than with a power drill, and the taps thread holes 15 times faster than with a tap wrench. The rapid hammering breaks and clears chips as you work to prevent jams. Since your wrench absorbs kickback, it won’t fight you if a cutting tool snags, reducing wrist strain and fatigue over long jobs.
    The chucks hold any tool with a VersaDrive hex shank—including countersinks and extractors—so just one chuck and wrench handle any cutting task.
    28 Pieces—Includes drill bits, taps, and step reamers plus reamers for hole alignment, drill taps, and hollow core cutters to further speed up your jobs. Use the drill taps to cut threaded holes in one smooth, continuous pass. The reamers enlarge holes and correct misalignment or overlap. The hollow-core cutters attach directly to your power drill, so you can form burr-free holes without a magnetic-base drill. Unlike drill bits, they cut only on the periphery of the hole and produce a solid slug, so they’re faster and leave a smoother edge. Two additional chucks let you use all these cutting tools with an impact driver and magnetic-base drill, too.
