Manufactured from steel and hardened to 60 to 65 HRC, this bushing provides a wear-resistant bore that maintains accurate hole location through repeated drilling cycles. The headless profile sits flush with the jig plate surface, making it the right choice where a protruding head would interfere with workpiece seating or clamping. It installs by press fit into a prepared bore and is non-renewable, intended as a permanent fixture component. The 0.204-inch ID accommodates a number 6 wire gauge or equivalent drill diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing is suited for production drilling jigs, assembly fixtures, and tooling plates in metalworking and manufacturing environments. Industry code P identifies it as a standard headless press fit type per ANSI specifications. Machinists, toolmakers, and fixture builders working in job shops, production facilities, or maintenance departments are the typical installers. The 3\/8-inch outside diameter and 5\/16-inch overall length fit compact fixture layouts where space between operations is limited.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePress fit installation — no fasteners or locking collars required for permanent seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeadless design sits flush with jig plate surface for unobstructed workpiece contact\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction hardened to 60 to 65 HRC for extended wear life under repeated drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInside diameter tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0004 inches maintains tight positional accuracy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI standards for drill bushing geometry and dimensional conformance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-renewable, fixed-installation design for permanent tooling applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an ANSI-standard press fit headless drill bushing (industry code P) for use in metalworking jigs and fixture plates requiring a permanent, flush-mount tool guide with a 0.204-inch bore and 3\/8-inch OD mounting hole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by toolmakers or machinists using an arbor press or hydraulic press — never drive this bushing with a hammer, as impact can distort the bore or crack the surrounding jig plate material. The receiving bore in the fixture plate must be machined to the correct press fit tolerance before installation. Once pressed in, this bushing is not intended for removal and replacement. Follow applicable shop safety practices and fixture design standards when preparing the host plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.204 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Diameter Wire Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: Number 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0001 to +0.0004 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Bushing Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Press Fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Headless\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBushing Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60 to 65 HRC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRenewable\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCounterbored\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBushing Industry Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: P\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: BONEHAM\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: PT245GF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BONEHAM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51731308904754,"sku":"PT245GF","price":18.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/772b15bcdae08b51210f0eebedf78b00_01aa6ebb-b374-451c-a913-14623eaca8e1.jpg?v=1788729581","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/boneham-pt245gf-press-fit-headless-drill-bushing-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
