Landis
Reamer Program
Landis Reamers for reaming, chamfering, and facing come in four basic styles - solid, detachable blade, insert blade and composite.
The style supplied will depend upon the operation to be performed and the
type of Landis die head in which it will be used. They can be identified by a symbol number stamped or etched on one of the flutes of the solid
and composite reamers and on each one of the blades of detachable and insert blade-type reamers.
