Hi all,

I'm looking for a 1/2 inch parallel sided flat ended reamer.

I found this and asked the seller if it was parallel sided, but he didn't seem to know.

Just wondering if anyone knows a good online source of such things.

Thanks in advance,
Chris

Try www.tracytools.com or Tunes Engineering Service in Slough (can't find a website for them though.
Cheers, Pewe

That is a straight reamer so the sides will be parallel, that's what straight reamers are. If it's not tapered it's straight.

All reamers have a slight taper at the start to enable it to enter the hole, hand reamers have more of a taper as it takes more effort to get the reamer started (hand reamers have a square end to the 'handle' to allow the fitment of a wrench, machine reamers have a morse tapered end) HTH
