ProTek RC "TruTorque" Lexan Body Reamer
About this part
This is the ProTek R/C "TruTorque" Body Reamer. No one wants to spend money on low quality tools. Tools are an investment that should not be taken lightly and are one of the few items that should outlast the life of the model you are working on...and remain with you for years after. With so many choices available, the decision can be overwhelming. So ProTek R/C has stepped up again, expanding its product line with a complete range of affordable, high quality tools that help to make the decision a little easier.
This body reamer features a double edged cutting head, with one side that displays inch increments up to a 1/2", while the other side has millimeter increments up to 12mm, and the head has an overall boar size of 0.60"/15.3mm. The double edge design makes it easier to keep the hole centered, and the measurements allow you to make precision sized holes in lexan/polycarbonate type material. Lastly, an o-ring in the handle is used to secure the cap, protecting you and the tool from damage or injury.
When it comes to high quality products that are backed by incredible customer support, ProTek R/C has you covered with the products you need to keep your rig ready for action, no matter what.

I purchased an OFNA reamer about 7 months ago and have never been happy with it. I saw the ProTek reamer and decided to give it a try and I love it! Very nice quality for the price, and it's sharp and easy to use. I am very happy with it, give it a shot if you need a reamer.
Excellent Product; Sharp and Fast. The Cap closes tightly with the added rubber ring. Highly recommended. Another Great Product ProTek !!
Another good one from Protek. This is a must have for your collection of RC tools. So much easier and quicker than using drill bits to get the correct size hole in your lexan body. It's really sharp and I had no problem cutting a dozen 6mm holes into a couple lexan wings made out of really thick lexan. With thinner lexan it cuts through like butter.
Love this tool, very sharp and the size indicators on the side are very useful!
This is my first reamer, don't see any reason for me to buy another one until this one goes dull! Sizes are clearly marked, does a great job leaving a clean hole in the lexan, and has a nice grip on it. Very pleased with this purchase!
Most of the 28 reviews rate the ProTek TruTorque Lexan Body Reamer highly, praising its sharpness, clean hole cutting, comfortable knurled grip, tight-fitting cap, and size markings. Several reviewers compare it favourably with DuBro, OFNA and other reamers. Recurring themes are sharpness and ease of use for newcomers. Dissent is limited to a few reviews: one 3-star review reports the blade edge chipping after a few holes, one 2-star review says cheaper reamers are sharper, and one 1-star review says the tool dimpled lexan when dull and is not sharp. One reviewer notes that size markings wear fast, and another reports good customer service after receiving a dull replacement. Overall, positive reviews dominate, but edge durability and sharpness out of the box are mentioned as concerns by a minority.
