Description
Effortless Cylinder Maintenance!
“This product surprised me at how easy it is to use. One piston cylinder had a ridge blocking me from pulling the piston out. So a quick read up of the instructions plus about an hour of turning it clockwise while the blade sliced down fine shavings of the ridge. It worked great!” -Rebecca M.
Why Get Our Ridge Reamer?
✅ Precision Cutting with Spring-Loaded Carbide Tip – The spring-loaded carbide cutter automatically follows the contour of the cylinder wall, ensuring smooth, clean ridge removal with minimal effort. This reduces the risk of damage during engine reassembly and improves the sealing surface for new piston rings.
✅ Stabilized and Chatter-Free Operation – An exclusive stabilizer spring and offset jaw guides keep the tool firmly centered during use. This ensures enhanced rigidity and accuracy throughout the process, preventing chatter and promoting a professional-quality finish on every job.
✅ Versatile Engine Fitment – With a wide adjustment range of 2-11/16" to 5-5/16" (68.3 – 134.9mm), this ridge reamer is compatible with a broad spectrum of engine cylinder sizes. It’s an all-in-one solution for mechanics working on various engines—from small vehicles to large industrial machinery.
✅ Smooth Rotation for Easy Handling – Built-in rollers make each turn inside the cylinder smooth and consistent, reducing manual strain and fatigue. This ergonomic design helps even beginners maintain control and precision during extended rebuild sessions.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
Q: Why do I need a ridge reamer, and what is it used for?
A: A ridge reamer is used to remove the carbon or wear ridge that forms at the top of engine cylinders over time. This ridge can interfere with piston removal and damage new piston rings during reassembly. Using a ridge reamer ensures smooth cylinder walls, allowing for easier piston removal and proper installation of new components during an engine rebuild.
Q: Can this ridge reamer be used on different types of engines?
A: Yes, this tool is compatible with a wide range of engine types. It adjusts to fit cylinder diameters from 2-11/16" to 5-5/16" (68.3 – 134.9mm), making it suitable for everything from small automotive engines to larger industrial and agricultural machinery.
