Adjustable hand reamers are cutting tools used for enlarging and finishing holes in metalwork. They have a set of blades or cutting edges that can be adjusted to achieve different diameters. These reamers are manually operated and are particularly useful when you need to achieve precise hole dimensions.

APPLICATIONS

<ul>
<li>Adjustable hand reamers are commonly used in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and other metalworking environments where precision hole sizing is crucial. They are suitable for a variety of materials, including metals, plastics, and composites.</li>
<li>Blades are Manufactured in High Carbon Steel &amp; HSS (As per Order)</li>
<li>Adjustable hand reamers typically have multiple blades that can be adjusted simultaneously to maintain a centered cut. The number of blades can vary, but three or four blades are common.</li>
<li>The key feature of adjustable hand reamers is their ability to change the diameter. This is usually achieved by loosening a nut on the reamer and then turning an adjustment screw to move the blades in or out.</li>
