Boneham AM00001049 Slip-fixed Drill Bushing Sfm

Product Description

The BONEHAM AM00001049 is a slip-fixed drill bushing manufactured to the SFM industry standard. It features a 7.75 mm inside diameter, a 12 mm body outside diameter, and a 20 mm length under the head. Slip-fixed bushings press into a liner bushing already installed in a jig plate, allowing the bushing to be locked in position during drilling operations. This design keeps the bushing from rotating under cutting forces while still allowing removal and replacement without disturbing the liner. The AM00001049 is a renewable bushing, meaning it can be swapped out when worn without replacing the entire jig assembly.

This bushing is used in precision drilling jigs and fixtures across metalworking, machining, and fabrication environments. It is suited for production runs where repeated, accurate hole location is required in metal or composite workpieces. Toolmakers, jig builders, and machining technicians typically install and service SFM-series bushings as part of fixture maintenance or tooling changeout procedures.

Key Features

• SFM industry code slip-fixed design locks bushing in place during drilling operations
• 7.75 mm inside diameter for precise drill or reamer guidance
• 12 mm body outside diameter for standard liner bushing fitment
• 20 mm length under head provides adequate drill guidance depth
• Renewable bushing construction allows replacement without disturbing the liner

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit slip-fixed bushing for standard SFM-series drill jig fixtures using a 12 mm body outside diameter liner bushing.

Installation Notes

Installation of slip-fixed bushings is typically performed by toolmakers or machining technicians during jig setup or fixture maintenance. Ensure the mating liner bushing is clean, free of chips, and properly seated in the jig plate before installing this bushing. Use the appropriate lock or clamp mechanism specified for the SFM series to secure the bushing before beginning any drilling operation. Never force the bushing into an undersized or damaged liner, as this can affect hole location accuracy and bushing service life.
