Boneham P134CT Press Fit Headless Drill Bushing Steel

Product Description

The BONEHAM P134CT is a press fit headless drill bushing designed to guide cutting tools with precision in jig and fixture applications. Built to Industry Code P specifications, it features a 0.0935 inch inside diameter, a 13/64 inch outside diameter, and a 1/4 inch overall length. Constructed from steel, it is pressed directly into a drill jig plate without a head flange, producing a flush-mounted installation. The inside diameter is held to a close tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0004 inches, ensuring consistent hole location across production runs. This bushing is a non-renewable type, intended as a permanent fixture component rather than a replaceable liner.

This bushing fits standard drill jig applications in manufacturing, machining, and fabrication environments. It is suited for production setups where repeatable hole placement is required across multiple workpieces. The headless design is preferred when a flush outer surface on the jig plate is necessary. Machinists, toolmakers, and fixture builders routinely install this style of bushing in hardened jig plates. It corresponds to an inside diameter wire size of number 42 drill.

Key Features

• Inside diameter of 0.0935 inches with tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0004 inches for precise tool guidance
• 13/64 inch outside diameter for press fit installation into standard jig plate bores
• 1/4 inch overall length suitable for thin-plate fixture designs
• Headless configuration provides a flush, snag-free jig surface
• Steel construction for durability under repeated drilling cycles
• Non-renewable design for permanent fixture installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation drill bushing for press fit headless applications conforming to Industry Code P dimensional standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by pressing the bushing into a precision-bored hole in a hardened jig plate using an arbor press or shop press. The bore in the jig plate must be sized to the correct interference fit for the 13/64 inch outside diameter before pressing. Do not drive the bushing with a hammer directly, as this can damage the bore or distort the bushing. Once pressed in, this bushing is not designed for removal and reuse.
