Boneham AM00000915 Slip-fixed Bushing Sfm 3.8mm Id

Product Description

The BONEHAM AM00000915 is a slip-fixed drill bushing manufactured to the SFM industry standard. It features a 3.8 mm inside diameter, an 8 mm body outside diameter, and a 16 mm length under head. Slip-fixed bushings are pressed into a liner bushing and held in place by a locking mechanism, allowing them to be removed and replaced without disturbing the jig plate. This makes the AM00000915 well suited for production drilling and reaming operations where tooling must be changed frequently while maintaining precise hole location. Machinists, toolmakers, and jig-and-fixture builders are the primary installers.

The AM00000915 is used in drill jigs and fixture plates across general machining, metalworking fabrication, and production manufacturing environments. Its SFM industry code designation means it conforms to established dimensional standards, making it interchangeable with other SFM-coded bushings of the same size class. Typical applications include close-tolerance drilling, reaming, and counterboring operations where repeatable hole placement is critical. The renewable design is particularly useful in high-cycle production settings where bushing wear is a routine maintenance consideration.

Key Features

• SFM industry code bushing — conforms to standard dimensional specifications for interchangeability
• Slip-fixed installation method allows removal and replacement without jig plate disassembly
• Renewable design extends fixture service life by enabling bushing replacement independent of the liner
• 3.8 mm inside diameter suits close-tolerance drill and reamer guidance
• 8 mm body outside diameter with 16 mm length under head for stable seating in the liner bushing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-build component for SFM-coded liner bushings used in drill jigs and fixture plates requiring a 8 mm body outside diameter slip-fixed bushing.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by toolmakers or machinists during jig assembly or maintenance. The bushing is inserted into a mating liner bushing already installed in the jig plate and locked in place per standard slip-fixed bushing practice. Ensure the liner bushing bore and the AM00000915 body are clean and free of chips or burrs before installation to maintain dimensional accuracy. Follow applicable shop safety procedures when working with press-fit tooling components.
