421 forum posts 49 photos | For a starting point, reaming feed rate is usually judged to be twice the drill feed rate, while speed is one third drilling RPM for HSS reamers and two thirds for Cobalt. Make sure you use a machine reamer and follow the allowances for the amount of material to leave in the bore for reaming. This information can be found on most manfacture's and some suppliers web sites. |
