Reamer Bushing Interchangeability

[Skunce]

Are the standard HSS reamer pilot bushings used on Manson 6mm reamers interchangeable with PTG bushings?

 

[Judd]

Yes.

Thank you, I have dozens of PTG bushings from 17 to 338. I don't want to purchase anymore if I can avoid it. Do you know if the PTG bushings fit JGS reamers as well?

They do.

Unless they're carbide or cut for a pressure flush.

ptg bushings fit either manson or jtg reamers. if your gonna get a manson reamer for 1st time get a 100 sack(at least ) of those little eclips they use. i generally lose one everytime i take it off. i get them from mcmaster

You change the bushing inside of a gallon ziplock, Haven't lost an e-clip yet.

Wait till you see the little clips JGS uses on carbide reamers.

Thanks for the replies! I've dealt with those little e-clips before. I think it was on a 17 caliber reamer.
