Boneham AM00000984 Slip-fixed Drill Bushing Sfm

Product Description

The BONEHAM AM00000984 is a slip-fixed drill bushing conforming to the SFM industry standard. It features a 5.8 mm inside diameter, a 10 mm body outside diameter, and a 25 mm length under the head. The bushing is designed to guide cutting tools - drills, reamers, and similar tooling - with precision and repeatability during machining operations. Its renewable design allows it to be removed and replaced without disturbing the jig plate, reducing downtime on production tooling. Machinists and toolmakers install this type of bushing in drill jigs and fixture plates where consistent hole location is required across multiple workpieces.

This bushing is suited for use in drill jig plates in light to medium production environments. The SFM industry code identifies it as a slip-fixed type, meaning the bushing slips into a liner and is locked in place during the drilling operation, then removed when the operation is complete. It is appropriate for applications where multiple drill sizes or operations must be performed at the same jig location, and where tool clearance or chip ejection considerations require a removable bushing.

Key Features

• SFM industry code slip-fixed configuration for use with a liner bushing in the jig plate
• 5.8 mm inside diameter for precise drill or reamer guidance
• 10 mm body outside diameter for standard liner fitment
• 25 mm length under head provides adequate tool guidance depth
• Renewable bushing design - replaceable without reworking the jig plate

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct fit for drill jig fixtures requiring an SFM-standard slip-fixed bushing with a 5.8 mm ID and 10 mm body outside diameter.

Installation Notes

Slip-fixed bushings are installed and removed by machinists or toolmakers using appropriate jig bushing tools. The jig plate must be fitted with a compatible liner bushing before this bushing is installed. Ensure all cutting operations are stopped and the workpiece is secured before inserting or removing the bushing. Verify inside diameter clearance is correct for the intended cutting tool before use.
