so I was digging through some stuff I bought off CL and found these reamers under some other stuff.
great I figure Ill add them to my other reamers...
so I got to looking at them a little closer and noticed that some say 'for aluminum only', other say 'for bronze only' and a few say 'for stainless only'.
so my question is whats the difference?
I can imagine that the ones for aluminum and bronze might be a little softer so that cannot be used on steel, but what other difference could there be? the angle the edge is sharpened?
the ones that say for stainless only, wont that work on about all materials?
any information anyone can provide would be appreciated.

Helix angle for chip breaking and evacuation. They are all made out of the same material (I guess HSS) Take them out of the rappers and post pics.
