Seco has introduced S-Ream Core, a new range of solid carbide reamers for reliable, cost-efficient reaming in P, M, K and N materials. Seco positions the line between basic tooling and its high-performance Nanojet solutions.

The company says S-Ream Core is intended for everyday production where dimensional accuracy is essential but a premium tool may be an over-investment. Its streamlined geometry, standard inspection and one universal coated grade are designed to reduce complexity while supporting repeatable IT7 precision.

Range and portfolio

The tools have straight flutes and a 30° lead. Seco stocks 62 diameters from Ø1.461 mm to Ø11.960 mm (0.057 in. to 0.470 in.), with additional sizes available through its MyDesign service.

S-Ream Core sits within a three-tier reamer portfolio: Core, Plus and Max. Seco says the structure is intended to make tool selection clear and application-focused. The company cites consistent hole quality, predictable tool life and a low cost per hole as benefits of the Core range.

The range is described as a general-purpose option rather than a premium reaming solution. Seco presents the three tiers as a way to match tooling to the job: Core for routine work, with Plus and Max completing the portfolio. The company frames the launch around predictable performance and cost control.
