Set of reamers for £12.99 (Bargain)

And about the softness its for another thread of its own. but do you think it's normal to be able to cut with a hacksaw the shank of insert milling cutter for under 1 min time?

I don't think it is normal to even try


I bought a set of these reamers and the first one arrived today. Why are they posting them as separate items ? The seller will only be getting grief from people (like me) who expected them all to arrive at one go !

Moi aussi! One 7mm reamer arrived today.

Most odd.

They are so cheap that i bought 2 of them . 1x 130mm long and the other one i cut in half for normal jobs. I think it's good enough reason, especially when now i have 2 sets of inserts, one for aluminum and one for steel and cast iron. I think even that the aluminum ones will be good for plastic. Just as a side note that these are side cutters, they can not plunge. and the 12mm one is one flute only

Be nice to see a pic of them Boyan. Its not uncommon for shanks of that kind of tooling to be soft ish and are often are tough rather than hard, depends on manufacturer and quality but sometimes hard is not good and its promotes resonance rather than curing it. Most cutters like that you can't plunge with. but are perfectly capable of ramping and helical ramping to get the tool down if the machine will allow and take the load.

The rest of the them arrived today in 2 more packets.

Measured the 10 mm reamer with digital calipers and they were 10.00 mm. I know there is a tolerance those calipers but it seems good so far.

I've received two so far, in two separate envelopes... What a funny way to run a business!

Same here, 7mm and 8mm Tried the 8mm as I had an 8mm dowel pin the try in the hole and it's a nice slide in fit.

Hopefully the other will come in the next few days.

Thank god for that thought i'd been ripped off.!! . . .Again. . . . . . only 7mm landed so far. Maybe it's like those Monthly magazines you get one each month and in no particular logical order. Lol

On Plus note can re-use the Jiffy bags so save few sheckles.,
