Precision Milling Cutters,Cutting Tools for CNC Machining Every Material
A solid carbide reamer provides final sizing and finishing for pre-machined holes on CNC machines, machining centers, and precision machining equipment. OMIST manufactures these machine-use reamers from solid carbide with a straight shank for stable and consistent CNC reaming applications.
Common metric products include 4-flute and 6-flute configurations. In addition, straight flute and spiral flute options are available to match different workpiece materials, hole conditions, and machining requirements.
Customers can choose common reference sizes or request non-standard carbide reamers for specific applications. For more hole-finishing tool options, browse our Reamers product category. For custom requirements, a tool drawing or dimensioned sketch helps us review the required configuration more accurately.

Note: These are common reference sizes for standard selection. We can also evaluate other diameters, flute lengths, overall lengths, shank dimensions, and tool configurations according to the customer’s drawing, workpiece material, and machining requirements.
Applications and Selection
Mold Steel and Hardened Steel
OMIST supplies solid carbide reamers for mold steel and hardened steel. Therefore, when requesting a tool for these materials, please provide the workpiece material together with the required reamer size or drawing. This information helps us review the required tool specification.
Aluminum, Copper and Plastics
Carbide reamers are also available for aluminum, copper, and plastic workpieces. Because different materials may require different tool configurations, please include the workpiece material when requesting a standard or custom tool.
Straight and Spiral Flute Options
Both straight flute and spiral flute configurations are available. The appropriate configuration depends on the hole geometry, workpiece material, machining conditions, and specific tool requirements. If you are comparing these two flute designs, see our straight flute vs spiral flute reamer guide for selection considerations such as hole type, chip direction, and interrupted features. Therefore, customers can provide the available machining information when the required flute configuration has not yet been confirmed.
Key Features
Solid Carbide Construction
OMIST manufactures the cutting tool from solid carbide throughout for machine reaming applications.
Machine-Use Straight Shank Design
The current product range uses a straight shank. As a result, these reamers are suitable for CNC machines, machining centers, and precision machining equipment.
4F and 6F Common Configurations
Common metric reference sizes include 4-flute and 6-flute configurations according to the diameter and tool specification.
Standard and Non-Standard Options
Customers can select common reference sizes. Alternatively, they can submit non-standard requirements when an existing configuration does not match the application.
Custom Manufacturing
OMIST can quote standard solid carbide reamers according to the required size, quantity, and workpiece material.
For a custom carbide reamer, we recommend providing a tool drawing or dimensioned sketch. Non-standard tools may combine different diameters, flute lengths, overall lengths, flute geometries, and other dimensions; therefore, a drawing makes specification review more efficient.
If a complete drawing is not available, you can instead provide the main dimensions, workpiece material, machining requirements, and quantity. We will review the available information and confirm any additional details required for quotation.
FAQ
What is a solid carbide reamer used for?
A solid carbide reamer performs the final sizing and finishing of a pre-machined hole on CNC machines, machining centers, and other machine tools.
What standard solid carbide reamer sizes are available?
Our current reference table covers metric cutting diameters from Ø1 mm to Ø20 mm with common 4F and 6F configurations. However, these are reference sizes rather than the complete manufacturing range, so we can also evaluate other dimensions.
Do you supply both straight and spiral flute carbide reamers?
Yes. We supply both straight flute and spiral flute configurations. The required configuration depends on the workpiece, hole geometry, and machining requirements.
Can you manufacture custom carbide reamers from a drawing?
Yes. We can evaluate non-standard carbide reamers from a customer tool drawing or dimensioned sketch. In addition, the drawing helps us confirm the required dimensions and tool configuration before production.
What information should I provide for a carbide reamer quotation?
For standard sizes, please provide the required size, quantity, and workpiece material. For custom reamers, we recommend sending a tool drawing or dimensioned sketch. Alternatively, you can provide the main dimensions and machining requirements if a complete drawing is not available.
Request a Quote for Solid Carbide Reamers
For standard products, please send the required size, quantity, and workpiece material. When requesting a non-standard solid carbide reamer, we recommend attaching a tool drawing or dimensioned sketch whenever possible.
To request a quotation or confirm a specification, Email us or contact us directly through WhatsApp. If a complete drawing is not available, simply send the main dimensions and machining requirements, and we will review the available information with you.
