LARGE DIAMETER REAMERS

Diatool precision reamers grouped

Large diameter high performance reamers are an integral part of the manufacturing industry, being used for a variety of applications. They are capable of holding size and meeting surface finish requirements reaming large holes in a wide range of materials, including aluminum, steel, hardened metals, cast iron, and more. Reamers come in a variety of sizes (up to ∅225mm) and styles, allowing them to be used in a wide range of applications across multiple industries.

One of the key features of large diameter high performance reamers is their ability to produce a high-quality and uniform finish within a bore. This is achieved by the use of multiple cutting edges which are designed to cut away material in a smooth and uniform manner. The multiple cutting edges allow for more material to be removed in a shorter amount of time which helps to reduce costs and improve efficiency.

Another advantage of large diameter reamers is their ability to create longer, more precise holes than with other types of hole finishing methods. This is especially beneficial in applications where accuracy is critical, such as in the production of heavy equipment and aerospace components or on large parts where a scraped part can be costly.  

When selecting a large diameter reamer for a specific job, it is important to consider the material being reamed, the size of the hole being created, the pre reaming method and the desired finish. High performance reamers can be made from a wide selection of materials and fitted with the proper cutting geometry allowing for increased application specific performance.

Overall, large diameter reamers are essential tools for the manufacturing industry, allowing for precision and accuracy in a variety of applications. By selecting the right reamer for the job, manufacturers can ensure a high-quality finish and save time and money in the process.
