Tapered reamers

Tapered reamers, looking for some information on the axminster tapered reamer as mentioned in one of the posts. I wonder if any one could possibly tell me the angle of the taper before I decide to buy one. I need one with a 1; 10 taper. Thanks in advance Tom.

What do you need a 1:10 taper for?

Most automotive applications are either 1:8 or 1:6....although there some exceptions.

Thanks for the replies my TRE seems to be 1:10 could be 1:8 my measurement may not be totally accurate. It's an omega TRE if any body knows for certain. Tom
