Herdim Irregular Peg Reamers

The reamer blades are made of High Speed Steel (HSS) hardened to 62 HRC to guarantee exceptionally long-lasting edges.

Straight cutting edges

The triple straight cutting edges are particularly sharp and guarantee perfectly round holes. Boxwood handles.

• R261STR  Violin/Viola/Lute/Gamba, irregular, 1/25 straight (Diameter – max 12mm, min 4mm)

Spiral cutting edges

The spiral design allows the wood fibers to be cut at an angle, resulting in completely chatter-free performance and perfectly round holes. Especially well-suited for working on sensitive old instruments whose pegboxes often have very hard medullary rays. Hardwood handles.
