Boneham AM00000751 Press Fit Headless Drill Bushing

Product Description

The BONEHAM AM00000751 is a press fit headless drill bushing designed to guide drill bits and other cutting tools with precision during machining and fabrication operations. Manufactured from steel, this bushing carries industry code PM and features a 9.75-inch inside diameter with an overall length of 25.00 millimeters (approximately 0.98 inches). It installs without a head flange, seating flush into the drill jig plate for applications where a low-profile installation is required. Machinists, tool-and-die technicians, and fabrication shops use this type of bushing to maintain accurate hole positioning across repeated drilling operations.

This bushing is suited for use in production jig and fixture setups where consistent hole location is critical. The press fit installation method means the bushing is driven or pressed directly into the jig plate without the need for a locking mechanism or liner bushing. It is a non-renewable design, meaning it is intended to be permanently installed in the jig body. Typical applications include metal fabrication shops, machine shops, and industrial manufacturing environments requiring repeatable precision drilling.

Key Features

• Press fit installation seats the bushing permanently and securely in the jig plate without additional hardware
• Headless design provides a flush, low-profile fit suitable for close-tolerance jig applications
• Steel construction offers durability and wear resistance for repeated drilling operations
• 9.75-inch inside diameter accommodates corresponding drill bit or tool shank sizing
• Non-renewable bushing type intended for permanent installation in drill jig fixtures
• Conforms to PM industry bushing code for standardized interchangeability reference

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or original-fit press fit headless drill bushing for industrial drill jigs and fixtures using PM-coded bushings with a 9.75-inch inside diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a machinist or toolmaker using an arbor press or hydraulic press to seat the bushing flush into the prepared jig plate bore. Ensure the receiving bore is machined to the correct interference fit tolerance before pressing to avoid bushing damage or misalignment. Once pressed in, this bushing is not designed for removal and reinstallation. Follow applicable shop safety procedures and secure the workpiece firmly before applying press force.
