Re: Press Fit

for example: if I want to press onto a 0.250" shaft, I would go down two steps to a size D drill (0.2460"), then ream out the hole one with one size larger (0.2480"), then press....and you are done[/quote]

0.250" is the same as an E drill. D is one size down. Two sizes down would be a C = 0.242"
