Boneham AM00000672 Drill Bushing Pm 7.5 in Id Steel

Product Description

The BONEHAM AM00000672 is a press fit headless drill bushing designed to guide cutting tools with precision in production drilling applications. Using industry code PM, this bushing installs without a head, seating flush in the jig plate for a clean, low-profile fit. Constructed from steel, it provides the hardness and wear resistance required for repetitive drilling cycles. The inside diameter measures 7.5 inches and the body outside diameter is approximately 0.472 inches (12.00 mm), with an overall bushing length of approximately 0.787 inches (20.00 mm). Machinists and tool-and-die professionals rely on this type of bushing to maintain hole location accuracy across production runs.

This bushing is suited for use in drill jigs and fixture plates where a flush, headless profile is required. It is a standard PM-style bushing intended for applications where the bushing remains fixed in the jig during the drilling operation. Typical installation scenarios include metalworking production environments requiring consistent hole positioning in steel, aluminum, and similar workpiece materials. The press fit design holds the bushing securely in the liner or jig plate bore without fasteners.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for drill jigs and fixture plates requiring a PM-style press fit headless drill bushing with a 7.5-inch inside diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or toolmakers using a press or arbor press to seat the bushing into a precision-bored hole in the jig plate. Ensure the receiving bore is machined to the correct tolerance for a press fit before installation. Do not hammer the bushing in without a driver to avoid damaging the bore or bushing face. Remove all chips and debris from the bore before pressing the bushing into position.
