I needed a forklift part and wasn’t sure which one fit. They asked for the model and serial number, got back to me quickly, and made sure I ordered the right one. Really helpful.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can this reamer be used with a hand drill? A: Yes, when used at low RPM with steady pressure, though a drill press provides better control and accuracy.
Q: Will this reamer enlarge a standard ball joint taper? A: It precisely reams a 10-degree taper to restore the correct angle; measure your existing taper before use to ensure compatibility.
Product appearance and specifications may vary slightly by batch. Compatibility may vary by serial number. Verify fitment before purchase.
