Boneham P264GK Press Fit Headless Drill Bushing Steel

Product Description

The BONEHAM P264GK is a press fit headless drill bushing designed to guide drill bits and other cutting tools with precision in jig and fixture applications. Manufactured from steel, this bushing features an inside diameter of 0.209 inches with a tight tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0004 inches, ensuring accurate and repeatable hole location. The outside diameter measures 13/32 inches and the overall bushing length is 1/4 inch. The headless design sits flush with or below the surface of the jig plate, making it suitable for applications where a protruding head would interfere with the workpiece or tooling setup.

This bushing is used in drill jig assemblies across manufacturing, machining, and tooling operations. The press fit installation method means the bushing is driven or pressed into a prepared receiver hole in the jig plate, where it remains fixed during production runs. It is not a renewable bushing, so it is intended for permanent installation rather than quick-change setups. Applications include production drilling, reaming, and similar guided-tool operations in both light manufacturing and precision machining environments.

Key Features

• Inside diameter of 0.209 inches with tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0004 inches for precise tool guidance
• Outside diameter of 13/32 inches for standard jig plate fitment
• Overall length of 1/4 inch suits shallow jig plate installations
• Headless design allows flush or sub-flush mounting in jig plates
• Steel construction provides durability under repeated drilling cycles
• Press fit installation method for permanent, fixed positioning

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style press fit headless drill bushing conforming to industry code P, suitable for use in standard drill jig and fixture plates requiring a permanent, non-renewable bushing installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or tool and die makers using a press or arbor to seat the bushing into a precisely reamed receiver hole in the jig plate. The receiver hole must be machined to the appropriate tolerance for a press fit prior to installation. Once pressed in, this bushing is not intended for removal or replacement. Ensure the jig plate is secured and supported properly during pressing to avoid distortion or misalignment.
