* The Manufacturer: The Cleveland Twist Drill Co. (with distinct "C" inside a diamond hallmark) was one of the most prolific, premium precision high-speed steel (HSS) cutting tool makers in the United States.
* "PEERLESS": This was Cleveland Twist Drill's premium, trademarked line of high-speed reamers. They designed these specifically to maximize tool life, handle rigorous production runs, and achieve exceptional hole finishes in metalworking operations.
* "FLEX-RITE": This designates the specific structural expansion style or construction style of the reamer body, built to absorb stress and maintain precise sizing when expanding under standard machining pressure.
* The Green Tips: As noted, this is a protective vinyl, plastic, or wax dip coating commonly used by toolrooms to guard the factory-ground precision cutting flutes againstBased on the condition, these tools are New Old Stock (NOS) / Unused Vintage Surplus. Look at the pictures and decide for yourself. I am not a tool-ologist and just go by visuals. Judge for yourself please.
Why they are confirmed as New:
* Pristine Factory Grind: Look closely at the flat, machined "tang" end. The fine, uniform directional grinding lines from the factory are fully intact across the entire surface.
* No Spin or Chuck Marks: When a reamer is used and slips under load, the hardened jaws of a chuck or socket leave deep, bright silver scoring rings or sharp indentation gouges.
absolutely zero mechanical gouging or spin wear.
* Natural Vintage Aging: The dark, mottled spots on the round shank are purely cosmetic surface patina/oxidation from sitting in storage for decades. The metal itself is perfectly smooth and physically unblemished.Pricing & Shipping: Asking $350
OBO for the entire lot. Will ship securely via USPS Priority Mail (Flat Rate Box recommended due to weight).
