Boneham P2622GF Press Fit Headless Drill Bushing Steel

Product Description

The BONEHAM P2622GF is a press fit headless drill bushing designed to guide cutting tools with precision during drilling, reaming, and boring operations. Built from steel, this bushing carries an industry code of P and features a 0.204 inch inside diameter, a 13/32 inch body outside diameter, and an overall length of 1-3/8 inches. The inside diameter holds a tight tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0004 inches, ensuring accurate tool guidance and repeatable hole positioning. Machinists, tool and die makers, and fixture builders install this type of bushing into jig plates and drill fixtures where consistent, high-volume drilling accuracy is required.

This bushing is suited for use in hardened jig plates and tooling fixtures across metalworking and fabrication environments. Its headless profile allows it to sit flush within the fixture plate, making it appropriate for applications where a protruding head would interfere with workpiece seating or fixture design. The counterbored feature accommodates specific jig configurations. It is a non-renewable style, meaning it is pressed permanently into the fixture plate and is not intended for frequent removal and replacement during production runs.

Key Features

• Press fit installation method for permanent, stable seating in jig plates
• Headless design sits flush with fixture surface, preventing interference with workpieces
• Inside diameter tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0004 inches for precise tool guidance
• Counterbored construction for compatible jig plate configurations
• Steel construction provides durability under repeated drilling cycles
• Industry code P classification for standardized interchangeability in tooling setups

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for standard P-code press fit headless drill bushing applications in metalworking jigs and fixtures.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a machinist or tooling specialist using an arbor press or hydraulic press to drive the bushing flush into a prepared, reamed hole in the jig plate. Verify the receiving hole diameter and finish match the bushing outside diameter tolerance before pressing to avoid galling or misalignment. Because this is a non-renewable bushing, removal after pressing will damage the bushing and may affect the jig plate bore. Always confirm correct ID selection relative to the intended drill or reamer size before installation.
