Boneham AM00000737 Drill Bushing Pm 9.3 Inch Id

Product Description

The BONEHAM AM00000737 is a press fit headless drill bushing classified under industry code PM. It is manufactured from steel and is designed to guide drill bits with precision during machining and metalworking operations. The bushing features an inside diameter of 9.3 inches, a body outside diameter of 15.00 millimeters, and an overall length of 12.00 millimeters. This type of bushing is permanently pressed into a jig plate and does not require a locking mechanism, making it well suited for production environments where the same drill operation is performed repeatedly. Machinists, tool and die technicians, and fixture builders are the primary installers of this component.

This drill bushing is used in jig and fixture applications across manufacturing and machine shop environments. It is appropriate for both light and heavy production drilling where consistent hole location and drill guidance are required. The PM designation identifies it as a standard headless press fit type per industry classification, making it a common selection for fixed tooling setups where the bushing is not intended to be removed during the production run.

Key Features

• Press fit installation method - no external locking collar required
• PM industry code classification for standard headless drill bushing applications
• Steel construction for durability in repeated drilling operations
• Inside diameter of 9.3 inches for precise drill bit guidance
• Non-renewable design intended for permanent fixture installation
• Compact body geometry with 15.00 mm outside diameter and 12.00 mm overall length

Compatibility

Designed as a standard PM-type press fit headless drill bushing for use in machining jigs and drill fixtures requiring a permanently installed bushing with a 9.3-inch inside diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolmakers using a press to seat the bushing flush into the jig plate bore. The receiving hole must be machined to the correct tolerance to achieve proper press fit retention. Never drive the bushing in with an impact tool, as this can distort the bore geometry. Verify hole location and bushing seating before beginning production drilling operations.
