Cleveland Chucking Reamer
The Cleveland C26150 is a straight-flute chucking reamer made from high-speed steel with a bright uncoated finish. It is sized at 17/32 inch for fractional-inch hole finishing in a drill press or lathe chuck. Machinists and maintenance technicians use it to bring drilled holes to precise diameter and improved surface finish. The tool suits general-purpose metalworking in steel, cast iron and non-ferrous alloys.
Fractional Inch Sizing Constraint
The 17/32 inch diameter is a fixed fractional size, so the reamer cannot be adjusted or used for any other bore diameter. Its straight shank fits standard chucks but offers no self-centring taper, requiring careful alignment in the machine spindle. The uncoated high-speed steel cuts cleanly in softer materials but wears faster in abrasive or high-alloy steels without coolant. It is not intended for hand reaming or for removing large amounts of stock in a single pass.
Capacity And Headroom
The reamer comfortably finishes holes that have been pre-drilled within a few thousandths of the final 17/32 inch size, delivering consistent roundness and surface quality. It runs out of effective cutting life when the margin wears down or when chatter develops from excessive overhang or insufficient rigidity. Heavy stock removal, interrupted cuts or hardened workpieces exceed the practical limits of the uncoated HSS flutes. The tool does not address larger or smaller diameters, metric sizes or coated-performance requirements.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 17/32 inch chucking reamer for this job?
The 17/32 inch size is the only diameter offered for this Cleveland HSS straight reamer, so choose it when the finished hole must measure exactly that fraction.
What does the high speed steel construction mean when the tool is running in a drill press?
High speed steel keeps its hardness at the temperatures reached during normal reaming, giving consistent size control and longer edge life than carbon steel in the same cut.
How does the straight shank affect the way this reamer fits in a chuck?
The straight shank seats directly in any standard drill chuck or collet that accepts its diameter, without needing a taper sleeve or special holder.
