Boneham AM00000604 Drill Bushing Pm 5.6 Mm Id

Product Description

The BONEHAM AM00000604 is a press fit headless drill bushing with a PM industry code, designed to guide drill bits and boring tools with precision in metalworking and machining operations. The bushing features a 5.6 mm inside diameter, a 10.00 mm body outside diameter, and an overall length of 16.00 mm. Manufactured from steel hardened to 60 to 65 HRC, it delivers the wear resistance required for repetitive drilling cycles on jigs and fixtures. The inside diameter tolerance is held to +0.004/+0.012 mm, providing consistent hole location accuracy. Licensed machinists and tooling technicians are the primary installers.

This drill bushing is suited for use in drill jigs, fixture plates, and production tooling setups where controlled hole location is critical. The headless, press fit design allows flush installation in applications where a flanged or renewable bushing would interfere with the workpiece or fixture surface. Typical applications include production machining environments in metalworking shops, aerospace component manufacturing, and general industrial fabrication where ANSI-compliant tooling is specified.

Key Features

• Press fit installation method for secure, permanent seating in the jig plate
• PM industry code headless design for flush, low-profile installation
• 5.6 mm inside diameter with a tight tolerance of +0.004/+0.012 mm for accurate hole guidance
• Steel construction hardened to 60 to 65 HRC for extended wear life under high-cycle drilling
• Meets ANSI standards for drill bushing dimensional and performance requirements
• Non-renewable design — intended as a fixed, permanent fixture component

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or original fitment for press fit headless drill bushing applications conforming to ANSI PM-series dimensional standards in metalworking jigs and fixtures.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or tooling technician using an arbor press or hydraulic press to seat the bushing flush with the jig plate surface. The receiving hole in the jig plate must be machined to the correct interference fit tolerance before pressing the bushing in place. Power down and de-energize any associated machine tools before performing fixture work. Do not hammer the bushing directly — use a press and appropriate driver to avoid distortion of the bore.
