Walter 15/16" HSS Bridge Reamer with 3-Flat Shank

Heavy-Duty Bridge Reamer for Steel Fabrication

When you are out in the field or on the shop floor, aligning bolt holes in structural steel can be a headache. The Walter 15/16" Reamer is the solution welders and ironworkers trust to get the job done fast. Often referred to as a bridge reamer or car reamer, this tool is built to take a beating. It is designed to widen and align holes in overlapping plates, ensuring your bolts slide through easily without damaging the threads.

Made from top-notch High-Speed Steel (HSS), this reamer cuts through rust, scale, and heavy plate without losing its edge. It is aggressive enough to chew through mild steel and stainless, yet precise enough to leave a clean hole. The tapered tip allows you to insert the tool into a misaligned hole and ream it out to the correct 15/16" size in seconds. This is a must-have tool for anyone working in steel erection, truck frame modification, or heavy fabrication.

One of the biggest frustrations with large drill bits and reamers is the shank spinning in the drill chuck when the tool bites into the metal. Walter has solved this with a 1/2" shank that features three flat sides. These flats lock into your drill's chuck jaws, providing a positive drive that won't slip, even when you are leaning into a tough cut. Whether you are enlarging plasma-cut holes or aligning structural beams, this UK-made tool delivers the performance you need to keep the project moving.

Why Welders Choose This Reamer:

• No Slip Grip: The 3-flat shank locks solid in your 1/2" drill chuck.
• Tough Material: HSS body handles the heat of aggressive reaming.
• Fast Alignment: Tapered design centers the tool quickly in offset holes.
• Versatile: Works on everything from aluminum to stainless steel plate.
