Boneham AM00001088 Slip-fixed Drill Bushing Sfm

Product Description

The BONEHAM AM00001088 is a slip-fixed drill bushing built to industry code SFM. It features an inside diameter of 8.7 mm, a body outside diameter of 15 mm, and a length under head of 28 mm. Slip-fixed bushings combine the quick-change convenience of a slip bushing with a locking mechanism that holds the bushing securely in the drill jig plate during the drilling operation. This design prevents the bushing from rotating or lifting with the drill bit, making it well-suited for production drilling applications where repeatability and positional accuracy are critical. Installation and replacement are handled by tooling professionals and jig fabricators on the shop floor.

This bushing is used in jig and fixture setups for precision drilling operations in metalworking and machining environments. The SFM industry code designates its specific head and body dimensions, allowing it to interchange with other SFM-coded components in an existing jig plate without retooling the fixture. Typical applications include production runs requiring consistent hole location across multiple workpieces. The renewable design means the bushing can be replaced independently when worn without scrapping the surrounding jig hardware.

Key Features

• Slip-fixed installation method for secure, rotation-resistant seating during drilling
• Renewable bushing design allows worn components to be replaced without replacing the jig plate liner
• SFM industry code ensures dimensional interchangeability with standard SFM-series jig hardware
• Inside diameter of 8.7 mm provides precise drill bit guidance for consistent hole location
• Body outside diameter of 15 mm and 28 mm length under head suit standard jig plate thicknesses

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for drill jig fixtures calling out SFM-series slip-fixed bushings with an 8.7 mm inside diameter and 15 mm body outside diameter.

Installation Notes

Slip-fixed bushings are installed and serviced by tooling technicians or machinists working with jig and fixture assemblies. Ensure the jig plate liner bore is clean and free of burrs before seating the bushing. Confirm the locking mechanism engages fully before beginning any drilling operation. Follow your facility safety procedures and power down or secure all drilling equipment before performing bushing replacement.
