Adjustable reamer 70-85 mm The NRZe finishes holes from 70 to 85 mm. Set the diameter with two nuts that move the high-speed steel (HSS) blades along inclined grooves in the body. Its 15 mm adjustment range and 510 mm length are the largest in the entire NRZe series. The drill bits offered in this range come in 1 mm increments, so prepare the preliminary hole by boring. Operate it by hand with a tap wrench fitted over the square on the shank.
Manufacturers design adjustable blade reamers for repair and assembly work. They are useful wherever a hole needs to be fitted to the part at hand. The diameter is then set to the size of the part, rather than to the standard size series of fixed reamers.
Which size to choose: 70-85 or 74-84 mm
Both reamers cover holes from 74 to 84 mm. The 70-85 mm reamer additionally covers holes from 70 to 74 and from 84 to 85 mm. The 74-84 mm reamer is 110 mm shorter and has blades that are 22 mm shorter. Both have a 50 mm shank and a 40 mm square.
How diameter adjustment works – blades and two nuts
NRZe reamer construction and measuring the diameter setting
The body has inclined grooves around its circumference, each holding an HSS blade. Two nuts, front and rear, retain the blades at both ends. Moving the blades along the grooves moves their cutting edges away from or toward the axis. This changes the cutting diameter over a range of 15 mm, from 70 to 85 mm. This is why the tool is also called an adjustable reamer.


Adjustment in three steps
First, loosen one nut. Then tighten the other — the blades will move to the new diameter. Finally, lock the blades by tightening the first nut. The rear nut, on the shank side, provides the main clamping force; the front nut is only snugged up. Tighten carefully. Excessive force bows the blades outward and causes the reamer to catch in the hole.
How to measure the set diameter
With an even number of blades, measure the diameter across two opposite blades using a micrometer. With an odd number, a groove lies opposite each blade, so the micrometer will read too low. In this case, use a setting ring or a hole of known diameter. Insert the reamer and expand the blades until they contact the hole wall.
How to ream step by step – tap wrench and clockwise rotation
Guidelines for using an adjustable hand reamer
Insert the reamer into the hole and apply light pressure so the blades engage the wall immediately. The tap wrench must fit the square closely to ensure smooth rotation without jerking. Align the reamer axis with the hole axis. For a longer hole, check the alignment with a square.
Hand reaming in six steps


As the blades emerge from the far end of the hole, resistance drops suddenly. Reduce pressure at this point, but maintain the same turning speed. Otherwise, the reamer will jump through the end of the hole and leave it uneven.
Turning counterclockwise in the hole dulls the blades and may chip them. It can also loosen a nut and change the setting. Turn clockwise when withdrawing the tool as well; otherwise, you will scratch the hole wall.
How much material one pass removes
Reaming allowance and initial hole
This tool finishes a hole rather than drilling it. It removes a thin layer: from 0.05 to 0.15 mm on the diameter in one pass. A smaller allowance produces a smoother wall. Too little allowance is detrimental, as the blades rub against the wall instead of cutting and become dull faster.


Calculation: 77.5 mm hole from a 77.4 mm initial hole
Allowance on diameter = finished hole diameter 77.5 mm − initial hole diameter 77.4 mm = 0.1 mm. Half of this, or 0.05 mm, is on each wall. This layer is thinner than a sheet of paper. A reamer set to 77.5 mm will remove it in one pass.
| Finished hole [mm] | Initial hole [mm] | Diametral allowance [mm] | Layer thickness at the wall [mm] | Passes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 70.0 | 69.9 | 0.1 | 0.05 | 1 |
| 77.5 | 77.4 | 0.1 | 0.05 | 1 |
| 77.5 | 77.3 | 0.2 | 0.1 | 2: set to 77.4, then 77.5 |
| 85.0 | 84.9 | 0.1 | 0.05 | 1 |
The available 77 mm drill bit would leave a 0.5 mm allowance for a 77.5 mm hole. This is more than three times the amount the blades remove in one pass. Bore the preliminary hole to 77.4 mm. Remove a larger allowance, for example 0.2 mm, in two passes: to 77.4 and 77.5 mm.
Tap wrench and lubrication – what to prepare
Tap wrench for a 40 mm square and oil suited to the material
Tap wrench No. 9
The shank square measures 40 mm. Select an adjustable tap wrench to DIN 1814, size No. 9. It accommodates squares from 22 to 45 mm and fits M39–M110 taps. The smaller No. 8 tap wrench has an upper limit of 40 mm, right at the reamer's square size.
With oil or dry
| Workpiece material | Lubrication |
|---|---|
| Steel and cast steel | cutting oil or emulsion |
| Aluminum alloys | cutting oil or emulsion |
| Gray and malleable cast iron | dry |
| Bronze and brass | dry |
Remove chips from the reamer after use. Before adjusting the blades, also clean the body grooves so the blades move evenly.
Adjustable reamer 70-85 mm The NRZe has the widest adjustment range in the series: 15 mm. The reamer is 510 mm long, and its blades are 145 mm long. Bore the preliminary hole with an allowance of 0.05 to 0.15 mm, because the drill bits offered in this range come in 1 mm increments. The 40 mm square fits a No. 9 tap wrench for squares from 22 to 45 mm.
Questions about size selection, pilot holes, and operation
Frequently asked questions about hand reaming
Both fit holes from 74 to 84 mm and use the same tap wrench. The 70-85 mm reamer also covers holes from 70 to 74 and from 84 to 85 mm. The 74-84 mm reamer is shorter: 400 mm long versus 510 mm.
Bore a preliminary hole with a diameter of 79.85 to 79.95 mm. The reamer set to 80.0 mm removes this allowance in one pass. A 79 mm drill bit would leave 1.0 mm, too much for the reamer.
Clockwise, just as when reaming. Clockwise rotation protects the blades and the hole wall. It also keeps the nuts in place, so the setting does not change.
Yes, at very low speed and with plenty of oil. At high speed, the hole may end up larger than the setting. Using a tap wrench provides the best control.
