Boneham AM00000735 Drill Bushing Pm 9.2 Inch Id

Product Description

The BONEHAM AM00000735 is a press fit headless drill bushing manufactured to ANSI standards for precision machining and tooling applications. Designated with industry code PM, this bushing features a 9.2-inch inside diameter and is machined from hardened steel with a hardness rating of 60 to 65 HRC. The headless design allows it to sit flush within a jig plate without a flange, making it well suited for applications requiring a clean mating surface. The non-renewable design means it is pressed permanently into the jig body. Licensed machinists, toolmakers, and jig-and-fixture builders are the primary installers of this component.

This bushing is used in drill jig assemblies where a fixed, permanently installed guide is required for repeatable hole location across production runs. Typical applications include metal fabrication, precision machining shops, and fixture manufacturing environments. The PM industry code identifies it as a press fit type within the ANSI drill bushing classification system, making it interchangeable with other PM-designated bushings of the same ID specification in standard jig plate designs.

Key Features

• Press fit installation method for permanent, fixed positioning in jig plates
• PM industry code designation per ANSI standards
• 9.2-inch inside diameter with a tight tolerance of +0.005 to +0.014 mm for accurate drill guidance
• Hardened steel construction rated 60 to 65 HRC for extended wear life
• Headless design seats flush with the jig plate surface
• Non-renewable - intended for permanent installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for drill jig assemblies requiring a PM-designated press fit headless bushing with a 9.2-inch inside diameter per ANSI specification.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by toolmakers or machinists using a hydraulic or arbor press to seat the bushing flush and square in the jig plate bore. Power down all associated equipment before handling jig components on active fixtures. Do not hammer the bushing directly - use a proper press arbor to avoid damaging the bore or outside diameter surface. Once pressed in, the bushing is not intended to be removed or reused.
