What do reamers do?
I larger the hole and helps Improve the quality
28
What are reamers made from?
Carbon tool steel or high-speed steel
29
Why should you always rotate a reamer in the cutting direction?
To avoid chipping as it is very brittle
30
What is the main advantage of a left-hand twist reamer over a right-hand?
It wont pull itself into the hole
31
What is chatter?
When the tool or work has been vibrating during cutting which produces uneven cuts
32
What are the two types of reamers?
Hand and machine reamers
33
How do you adjust the expansion hand reamer?
By tightening a taper screw into the opening
