Tapered Reamer with T-Handle — 5–16 mm, 7 mm length, hardened carbon steel, 6-flute, hex shank Why you need this reamer Keeps tapered holes concentric and properly shaped so pins and fittings seat accurately. Saves time fixing oversized, fouled, or improperly chamfered holes by re-tapering quickly and cleanly. Built for hand control and light machine use, giving you both precision and leverage where a standard reamer won’t do. Key benefits and features T-handle with 6 flutes and side grips: provides extra leverage and control for steady, round cuts and smooth feed. Hardened carbon steel with ground cutting edges: durable cutting performance and reliable edge retention for multiple jobs. Correct tapering action: designed to ream and properly taper holes for dowel pins or end pins, and to restore or finish countersinks and reverse cones. Size and fit: works across a 5–16 mm diameter range; overall length 7 mm for the tapered portion as specified. Hex shank: for secure manual handling and easy insertion into standard chucks or bit holders. Typical applications Furniture assembly and repair: ream tapered dowel-pin holes so dowels fit flush and align precisely. Countertop and sink work: refine or re-taper wood sink cutouts and countersunk holes to ensure proper seating of fixtures. Wood finishing and joinery: create or restore chamfers and reverse tapers where accurate bit fit is required. Technical summary Tool type: tapered hand reamer with T-handle Flutes: 6 grooves for smoother cutting and chip removal Material: hardened carbon (high carbon) steel with ground edges Size range: 5–16 mm Tapered length: 7 mm Shank: hex for secure handling Use guidance Apply steady, controlled pressure and rotate evenly to maintain concentricity. Best for finishing, re-tapering, and light-duty precision work on wood components. Check fit frequently when reaming to avoid overcutting. This reamer is a practical tool for anyone needing accurate, durable tapered holes for dowels, pins, countersinks, and chamfers in woodwork.
