Boneham P1316CY Press Fit Headless Drill Bushing

Product Description

The BONEHAM P1316CY is a press fit headless drill bushing designed to guide drill bits with precision in jig and fixture applications. Built to Industry Code P standards, this bushing features a 0.098 inch (No. 40 wire gauge) inside diameter and a 13/64 inch body outside diameter, with a 1 inch overall length. Constructed from steel, it is pressed directly into a drill jig plate without a locking head, making it well suited for installations where a flush or low-profile fit is required. The inside diameter tolerance is held to a tight +0.0001 to +0.0004 inch range, supporting consistent hole location accuracy across repeated operations.

This bushing is used in metalworking, tooling, and manufacturing environments where jig plates or fixtures must guide cutting tools to a precise location. It is a standard fixed bushing — not renewable — meaning it is intended for permanent or semi-permanent press installation into the jig body. The counterbored construction allows it to seat correctly in appropriately prepared jig plate bores. Machinists, tool and die makers, and fixture builders working in production or job-shop settings are the typical end users.

Key Features

• Industry Code P headless design for flush press-fit installation
• 0.098 inch ID (No. 40 wire gauge) with tight tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0004 inch
• 13/64 inch body outside diameter for standard jig plate fit
• 1 inch overall bushing length for adequate drill guidance depth
• Steel construction for durability under repeated drilling cycles
• Counterbored body for correct seating in prepared jig bores

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fixed drill bushing for use in press-fit jig plate applications conforming to Industry Code P bushing standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or tool and die makers using a press to drive the bushing into the mating jig plate bore. Ensure the receiving bore is sized and finished to match the bushing outside diameter tolerance before pressing. Do not hammer the bushing in without a proper press arbor, as this can damage the bushing bore geometry. Verify the bushing is fully seated and flush before use in production drilling operations.
