Hand reamer 16 H7 NRTh — characteristics
construction, operation, and applications
Fixed-size, shank-type hand reamer 16 H7 NRTh to DIN 206 finishes cylindrical Ø16 holes. It brings them to grade H7 (16.000–16.018 mm), removing a thin layer of a few hundredths of a millimeter from the wall — the hole achieves an accurate size, better roundness, and lower roughness.
The reamer is made of high-quality Polish-made high-speed steel (HSS). A set of 8 straight cutting edges distributes cutting forces over multiple edges, maintaining hole roundness and avoiding the vibration typical of a two-lip drill. The tapered lead guides the tool concentrically into the pilot hole, while the straight shank ending in a square drive engages with a tap wrench.
This is a machining operation for finishing operation, not roughing. Drilling alone produces a hole of grade IT10–IT11; the reamer is intended to tighten its tolerance to H7 and smooth the wall. Note: the reamer follows the hole and will not correct a crooked hole, so drill the initial hole perpendicular to the surface and on axis. Unlike a machine reamer, the hand version has a longer lead taper and more cutting edges, making it easier to guide under less rigid working conditions. It is sometimes used for machining reduction sleeves, in which the bore must meet a narrow H7 tolerance zone.

Your reamer produces tolerance grade H7 — finished hole Ø16.000–16.018 mm; the value is stated directly, without conversion from tables. A narrower tolerance zone means a more accurate hole. The reamed surface is smooth — typically Ra 0.4–1.6 µm, significantly better than after drilling alone (approx. 1.6–3.2 µm).
Manual machining — how to ream Ø16 H7
tap wrench operation, allowance and predrilled hole
The reamer is secured in a tap wrench by the square drive of the shank and operated by hand — with steady rotation in one direction and light, even pressure. For reaming to Ø16 H7, leave a 0.2–0.3 mm allowance on diameter: drill the pilot hole with a drill of Ø15.7 mm, then ream to the final size. Maintain moderate, even pressure and do not reverse rotation while cutting. Lubricate generously with cutting oil — it reduces cutting resistance and improves the surface finish to Ra 0.4–1.6 µm (drilling alone leaves approximately 1.6–3.2 µm).
▲Important: is a tool for manual machining — it is not intended for powered operation at high speeds. High-speed steel loses hardness above approx. 600 °C, so lubricate generously. Do not stop the reamer in the hole or reverse rotation — always withdraw it while continuing to rotate forward; withdrawing without rotation risks chip jamming, chipped cutting edges and a poorer hole finish.

Frequently asked questions
Unalloyed and free-machining steel, nonferrous metals (brass, bronze, copper), and light alloys — materials in group P1.2–P1.3. The HSS cutting edges provide durability during hand operation, but the tool is not intended for hardened steel or hardened stainless steel.
It means the hole is produced within 16.000–16.018 mm — upper deviation +0.018 / 0 mm, without falling below the nominal size. Reaming also produces a smooth wall with Ra 0.4–1.6 µm.
Yes — drill Ø15.7 mm, leaving a stock allowance of 0.2–0.3 mm on the diameter. The reamer is a finishing tool and removes only a thin layer; it cannot replace drilling from solid.
