Boneham P4016KI Press Fit Headless Drill Bushing Steel

Product Description

The BONEHAM P4016KI is a headless press fit drill bushing designed to guide drill bits and other cutting tools with precision in jig and fixture applications. Built from steel, this bushing features an inside diameter of 0.413 inches, a body outside diameter of 5/8 inches, and an overall length of 1 inch. The inside diameter tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0005 inches ensures accurate, repeatable hole placement. It is classified under industry code P and installs without a head, allowing it to sit flush within the drill plate. Machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance professionals install this type of bushing when close-tolerance guidance is required for production drilling operations.

This bushing is suited for use in drill jigs where a permanent, non-renewable press fit installation is acceptable. Because it is headless and non-renewable, it is typically used in applications where the bushing does not need to be swapped out between operations. It fits into a bored hole in the jig plate and is pressed in place to remain fixed throughout the life of the fixture. This makes it appropriate for dedicated, single-operation jig plates in manufacturing, fabrication, and maintenance shop environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a machinist or toolmaker using an arbor press to seat the bushing flush within the jig plate bore. Power down all associated equipment and secure the workpiece before pressing the bushing into place. Do not hammer the bushing directly, as this can damage the bore or distort the bushing. Once pressed in, this bushing is not intended for removal or replacement.
