About

It consists simply of an 11/64"/3mm thick length of stainless steel, chisel-shaped at the tip and cut with a loop-shaped handle to allow for better leverage and control.

Length from base of handle to tip: 3.42"/87mm

Do not operate while drowsy or impaired, aim away from face, etc.

“Good For Shanks, Not Draftholes”

September 25, 2020

By: Puffin’ Pied Piper

Product: Tampers & Tools Neerup Shank Reamer

This tool has proven effective on shanks. It’s really nothing more and nothing less.

Here’s an anecdote that might help those hoping to use this on an obstructed drafthole: My Peterson Pub Pipe was one of my workhorse puffers—until it wasn’t. I understand Oom Pauls and pipes using the “Peterson System” may experience stoppages or tar buildup, not as much in the shank, but in the airway just north of the drafthole. But my Neerup steel pipe brushes wouldn’t unblock said obstruction, and though for a moment I was tempted to try this shank reamer, I realized that this 3 mm shank reamer would also prove unsuccessful. Even more, trying this on a draft hole is asking for trouble, and it will likely damage the pipe. It seems that Neerup made this reamer square, and not cylindrical/round, so one can turn it inside the shank and remove carbon—not clear out an obstructed drafthole....Read More

Size Matters

Product: Tampers & Tools Neerup Shank Reamer

This device measures 3mm—I checked it with a micrometer. However, of the more than 100 pipes I own, not a single one has an airway that is 3mm or greater. In short, it won’t fit a single one of my pipes, and I seriously doubt that any pipe has an airway that will accommodate it.
