Profiled Metal Reamer Wolfcraft WF4380000 — cylindrical, 6‑point hex shank

Wolfcraft profiled metal reamer WF4380000 is a cylindrical cutting tool with a six-point hex shank designed for enlarging and finishing holes in metal. The tool is intended for controlled material removal and precise hole profiling when a straight, uniform bore is required. Its hex shank allows secure clamping in hex-driver chucks and drills that accept 6-edge shanks, providing stable torque transfer and reduced slippage during metalworking operations.

Advantages

The cylindrical profile delivers consistent cutting engagement along the bore, producing smoother wall finishes and maintaining concentricity. The 6-point hex shank ensures reliable retention in compatible chucks and drivers, improving operational safety and reducing wobble. The compact design facilitates access to confined areas and supports both manual and power-driven use. Machined cutting edges provide predictable material removal suited to finishing and sizing tasks in various ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

Suitable for

• Enlarging drilled holes in steel and non-ferrous metals
• Finishing and sizing bores to achieve accurate diameters
• On-site metal repair and assembly tasks requiring controlled reaming
• Use with hex-driver chucks, quick-change holders, and compatible hand drills

Key specifications

• Tool shape: cylindrical profiled reamer
• Shank type: six-point (6-edge) hex shank for secure clamping
• Application material: metals (ferrous and non-ferrous)
• Use mode: manual or power-driven operation in compatible chucks
• Primary function: enlarging, finishing and sizing holes

How to use

Select a compatible hex-driver chuck or drill that accepts a 6-edge shank and secure the reamer firmly. Pre-drill the hole to an appropriate pilot diameter, then run the reamer at a moderate speed with steady feed to avoid overheating. Apply suitable cutting lubricant for the metal being worked to extend tool life and improve surface finish. Withdraw the reamer occasionally to clear chips and inspect progress until the desired diameter and finish are achieved.

Usage recommendations

Use cutting fluid when reaming harder metals and maintain moderate rotational speed to prevent tool wear. Ensure the drill or driver provides stable support to minimize runout. For repeatable accuracy, verify the pilot hole and reamer condition before each use and replace the tool if cutting edges become damaged or excessively worn.
