Boneham AM00000154 Press Fit Headless Drill Bushing Hm

Product Description

The BONEHAM AM00000154 is a press fit headless drill bushing classified under the HM industry code. It is designed to guide drill bits and cutting tools with precision during machining operations, maintaining accurate hole location and reducing bit wander. The bushing installs without a head, sitting flush within the drill jig or fixture plate for a clean, low-profile fit. With a 4.4-inch inside diameter and an 8.00 mm body outside diameter, this bushing suits applications where a compact, renewable-free guide is needed. It is installed by machinists and tooling specialists in production and maintenance environments.

This bushing is used in drill jigs and fixture assemblies across general machining, metalworking, and fabrication settings. The headless press fit design is common in production tooling where the bushing must seat permanently into the jig body without protruding above the work surface. It is appropriate for both light-duty and moderate production-run applications where a fixed, non-renewable guide bushing is acceptable. Toolroom technicians and machine shop personnel typically specify this part when building or repairing drill fixtures that require a permanent, flush-mounted guide.

Key Features

• HM industry code classification for standard headless press fit bushings
• 4.4-inch inside diameter for precise drill and cutting tool guidance
• 8.00 mm body outside diameter for compact fixture integration
• 8.00 mm overall bushing length for low-profile installations
• Steel construction for durability in production tooling applications
• Non-renewable design provides a permanent, fixed installation in the jig plate

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-build component for drill jigs and fixture plates requiring a headless press fit bushing with an HM industry code designation.

Installation Notes

Press fit bushings are installed by machinists using an arbor press or appropriate driving tool to seat the bushing flush and square within the jig plate bore. The receiving bore must be machined to the correct interference fit tolerance before installation. Once pressed in, this non-renewable bushing is not intended for removal or replacement. Always verify bore dimensions and bushing fit class before pressing to avoid damage to the jig plate or bushing.
