Inner-Outer Reaming and Deburring Tool - For Copper, Aluminum an - Imperial

The Imperial 208-F Inner-Outer Reaming and Deburring Tool is designed for professional technicians and mechanics requiring precise and efficient preparation of soft metal tubing. This robust tool streamlines workflow by simultaneously reaming and deburring both the inside and outside diameters of tubes in a single pass. It ensures tube ends are optimally prepared for critical leak-tight flares, soldered, and brazed connections across various applications.

Key Features

• Wide Tubing Capacity: Efficiently handles 3/16" to 1-1/2" (5 mm to 38 mm) O.D. copper, aluminum, and brass tubing, covering common HVAC/R, plumbing, and automotive line sizes.
• Integrated Inner/Outer Reaming: Features a dual-edge design with three hollow-ground, hardened steel blades to simultaneously clean both inside and outside diameters, minimizing tool changes and optimizing workflow efficiency.
• Durable Hardened Steel Cutters: Equipped with three hardened steel blades that provide consistent, clean material removal and an extended service life in daily professional use.
• Bidirectional Operation: Designed for both clockwise and counterclockwise rotation, offering practical versatility for working in confined spaces.
• Rugged Die-Cast Construction: Built with a durable, blue die-cast housing that withstands the rigors of shop, field, and fleet environments.

Applications

As a versatile copper reaming tool, the Imperial 208-F is ideal for preparing copper and aluminum tubing on HVAC/R service calls, ensuring smooth, burr-free connections essential for system integrity. It effectively deburrs copper and brass plumbing tube before soldering or brazing, which is crucial for creating strong, reliable joints. In automotive repair and fabrication, it cleans up soft-metal brake, fuel, and transmission cooler lines on common passenger vehicles, light trucks, and fleet equipment, where burr-free tube ends are essential for protecting seals, maintaining fluid flow, and reducing the risk of leaks.
