Reamers and ReamingReaming is a recognised method of producing holes of good finish, with dimensional accuracy.

Reamers are classified into various types. These are the solid type, which have taper or parallel shanks with the body or cutting diamter, the shell type which are used on Arbors, and the inserted adjustable blade type.

All the types can be manufactured in various qualities of steel. They are generally manufactured from a straight high speed steel, a high speed steel with varying amounts of cobalt additiives, or have carbide tips or solid carbide ends.

To obtain the best results when using reamers it is essential that the reamers are made to ‘work’. Is is a common fault to prepare holes for reaming with too little stock left in. If only a bare amount is left in the hole before reaming, the reamer will scrape and rub, and quickly show wear and consequently loss of diameter.

Stock Removal By Reaming

Below are listed general approximations of the amount of stick to be removed by a reamer. The first column shows stock removal when a two flute drill bit only has been used. The second, when a core drill has been used as a pre-finishing tool. In anticipation of metrication, all figures are in millmetres and the derived drill diameters are all stocked sizes for whole millimetre reamers.

N.B. (a) Material over 80tons/in2 (126kg/mm2) may cause machining problems.

(b) These recommendations are based on using modern machines under good conditions. The finish desired, condition of material, rigidity of fixture, type of machine and the available power all affect performance.

Tapping Problems and Their CausesTrouble Possible Cause

Chips clogging flutes

Wrong type of tap, insufficient chamfer, incorrect cutting-face angle, rough flutes, flutes improperly reground, lack of lubrication or wrong type.

Stripped or chipped threads

Misalignment, careless handling, dull tap, tap too hard, improper application or surface-treated taps, improper sharpening of tap.

Torn threads in tapped part

Incorrect cutting-face angle (usually too small), tap drill too small, chips clogging flutes, broken threads on taps, improper resharpening of tap, lack of lubricant or wrong type.

Tap sticking or binding

Tap drill too small, tap lands too wide, incorrect cutting-face angle, lack of lubricant or wrong type, surface treatment (lubricant) needed.

Excessive tap wear Material is abrasive or inclusions are present (surface-treated tap required), misalignment.

Cutting face breakdown Incorrect cutting-face angle, surface treatment required.

Overheating of tapExcessive land width, lack of lubricant or wrong type, dull tap, excessive flank contact (pitch-diameter relief required), excessive tapping speed.

Poor finish on thread in tapped part

Incorrect cutting-face angle (usually too small), tap drill too small, insufficient number of chamfered threads, dull tap, lack of lubricant or wrong type.

Excessive frictional drag and power requirement

Point size on tap too large, dull tap, incorrect cutting-face angle, incorrect tapping speed, lack of lubricant or wrong type, incorrect or inadequate equipment, misalignment.

Tap breakage

Wrong type of tap, dull tap, tap incorrectly ground, tap drill too small, drilled hole too shallow, misalignment of tap and hole, wrong machine, incorrect fixture or tap-holding device, work-hardened material, lack of lubricant or wrong type.

Use of a suitable lubricant or cutting compound is necessary on most tapping operations. The following table lists general recommendations for the type of lubricant. However, better results can sometimes be obtained by the use of one of the many modified or specialised lubricants recommended by cutting oil specialists.

Proper application of the lubricant is just as important as the type used. To be effective, ample quantities of lubricant must reach the chamfer or cutting portion of the tap during the entire tapping operation. In many cases, the lubricant must also aid in controlling or disposing of the chips.

The flow of lubricant should be directed into the hole rather than at the tap and should have sufficient pressure to wash the chips away from the hole as much as possible. Also, if the flow is not continuous, it should start before the tap enters the hole and continue until the tap is completely reversed out of the hold. In this way, ample oil is provided at the start of the cut and loose chips will be suspended in the oil so that they do not interfere with the tap reversing out of the hole. On machines where the work revolves and the tap is stationery, it is desirable to use several streams of lubricant on opposite sides of the tap, especially on horizontal tapping.

We recommend Relton Rapid Tap as a good all round Tapping lubricant.

Material being Tapped Suggested Lubricant

Aluminium and Magnesium Kerosene and lard oil or light mineral oil

Brass and Bronze Soluble oil or light mineral oil

Malleable Iron Soluble oil or sulphur base oil

Cast Iron Dry or soluble oil

Steel Sulphur base oil

Plastic and Bakelite Dry

Zinc Die Castings Soluble oil

Tapping speeds depend on many factors, including the machine, the material being tapped, the design of the hole, the lubricant, and the style of tap used. No exact rules can be given that take into account all of these variables, but the following information can be used as a guide in determining a start point and course to follow for obtaining maximum performance.

Course thread taps should be run near the low range while higher speeds may be used for fine threads. The above values should also be modified according to the following suggestions.

The basic form is derived from an equilateral triangle which is truncated 1/8 of the height at the major diameter and 1/4 of the height at the minor diameter. The corresponding flats have a width of P/8 and P/4 respectively.

In practice, clearance is provided beyond the P/8 flat on internal threads and beyond the P/4 flat on external threads. These clearances are usually rounded.

The sides of the thread form an angle of 55° with one another, and the top and bottom of the full triangle are truncated one-sixth of the height. The actual deoth of the thread is equal to two-thirds of the height of the generating triangle and is equal to 0.6403 times the pitch. The crests and roots are rounded to a radius of 0.137329 times the pitch.

MachineFrequently check:• The Function of the chip brush• The wear and alignment of the guides• The band tension with a tension meter• The band speed with a tachometer• The coolant concentration with a refractometerConsult your Sales Engineer for free testing services.

Coolant/Cutting Fluid The coolant lubricates, cools and carries the chips from the cut. It is important to:• Use good cutting fluid• Use the recommended concentration fo cutting fluid• Make sure that the cutting fluid reaches the cut with low pressure

and large flow

WorkpieceMake sure that the work piece is firmly fixed so that it cannot vibrate or rotate.

Running InTo obtain the maximum blade life always use the recommeneded bland speed but lower the feed rate to 1/3 - 1/2 under the first 10 minutes of cutting.

During the next 10 minutes increase the feed rate in stages until you have reached the recommended feed rate.

Solution of the Oblique-Angled TriangleANY ONE SIDE & ANY TWO ANGLES KNOWNFor example: denote the known side a and the angle A and B

Then: C = 182° - (A + B) b = (a Sin B) ÷ (Sin A) c = (a Sin C) ÷ (Sin A)

TWO SIDES & THE INCLUDED ANGLEFor example: denote the sides a & b and angle C

Then: Tan A = (A Sin C) ÷ (b + a Cos C) B = 180° - (A + C) c = (a Sin C) ÷ (Sin A)

Area = (a x b x Sin C) ÷ 2

TWO SIDES & THE OPPOSIRE ANGLEFor example: Let the angle be A and the side a & b

Then: Sin B = (b Sin A) ÷ a c = (a Sin C) ÷ (Sin A) C = 180° - (A + B)

Area = (a x b Sin C) ÷ 2

All SIDES GIVENFor example: Let the sides be a . b & c and the angles opp.A B & C

Then: Cos A = (b² + c² - a²) ÷ (2 bc) Sin B = (b Sin A) ÷ a C = 180° - (A + B) Area = (a x b Sin C) ÷ 2
