Boneham AM00000341 Drill Bushing Hm 9.75 in Id

Product Description

The BONEHAM AM00000341 is a press fit headless drill bushing in the HM industry code series, manufactured from steel for use in precision drilling and machining operations. This bushing is installed without a head flange, allowing it to sit flush within a jig plate. It features a 9.75-inch inside diameter and a body outside diameter of 15.00 millimeters with an overall bushing length of 12.00 millimeters. Machinists and tooling specialists use these bushings to guide drill bits, reamers, and other cutting tools with accuracy and repeatability across production runs.

This bushing is suited for use in drill jig fixtures in industrial machining environments. The press fit installation method seats the bushing permanently into a hardened jig plate, making it appropriate for high-volume or fixed tooling setups where the bushing is not intended to be removed and replaced during normal operation. The HM industry code designation identifies the dimensional standard, helping tool crib managers and machinists cross-reference to standard jig bushing catalogs for replacement or substitution purposes.

Key Features

• Press fit installation method for permanent, secure seating in jig plates
• Headless design allows flush mounting within the fixture surface
• HM industry code series for straightforward dimensional cross-reference
• Steel construction provides durability and wear resistance in drilling applications
• 9.75-inch inside diameter guides standard cutting tools with close tolerance
• Non-renewable design intended for permanent fixture installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for drill jig fixtures requiring HM-series press fit headless drill bushings with a 9.75-inch inside diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a machinist or tooling technician using an arbor press or hydraulic press to seat the bushing flush and square within the jig plate bore. Ensure the receiving bore is machined to the correct interference fit tolerance before pressing to avoid damage to the bushing or plate. This bushing is not intended for removal after installation and should not be driven out with a punch once seated. Always verify cutting tool clearance through the bushing before placing the fixture into service.
