Boneham AM00000989 Slip-fixed Bushing Sfm 5mm Id

Product Description

The BONEHAM AM00000989 is a slip-fixed drill bushing classified under industry code SFM, designed for use in jig and fixture tooling applications. It features a 5 mm inside diameter and a 10 mm body outside diameter, with a 20 mm length under the head. The slip-fixed design allows the bushing to be installed and removed without specialized press equipment while maintaining accurate drill guidance during production operations. It is a renewable bushing, meaning it can be replaced independently of the liner bushing it seats into, reducing tooling downtime and overall fixture maintenance costs.

Slip-fixed bushings in the SFM series are commonly used in drill jigs for metalworking, fabrication, and production machining environments. The SFM designation indicates a headless slip-fixed style suited for applications where the bushing must be locked in position during use but can be rotated or removed when changing drill sizes or performing maintenance. This part is appropriate for both light-duty and moderate-production drilling setups where repeatable hole location accuracy is required.

Key Features

• SFM industry code slip-fixed bushing for accurate drill guidance in jig fixtures
• 5 mm inside diameter accommodates standard 5 mm drill shanks
• 10 mm body outside diameter for proper seating in matching liner bushings
• 20 mm length under the head provides adequate drill support depth
• Renewable design allows bushing replacement without disturbing the fixture plate or liner

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit slip-fixed drill bushing for standard SFM-series liner bushings requiring a 5 mm ID and 10 mm body outside diameter.

Installation Notes

Slip-fixed bushings are installed by machinists or tooling technicians into a seated liner bushing within a drill jig plate. Ensure the jig fixture is secured and the machine is powered down before servicing or replacing bushings. The bushing should be rotated to its locked position before drilling begins and verified for proper seating to prevent movement during operation. Do not force the bushing into an incompatible liner; confirm liner inside diameter matches the bushing body outside diameter before installation.
