Manufactured from steel and hardened to 60 to 65 HRC, this bushing provides a durable wear surface that maintains hole-location accuracy under repeated drilling cycles. The headless design sits flush with the jig plate surface, making it suitable for applications where a protruding head would interfere with workpiece clearance. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals install this style of bushing in production drill jigs where consistent hole placement is critical across high part volumes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bushing carries Bushing Industry Code P and conforms to ANSI standards, making it a direct fit for standard P-series bushing applications. With a 0.3125 inch (5\/16 inch) inside diameter, a 9\/16 inch body outside diameter, and a 1\/2 inch overall length, it is sized for light to medium drilling operations in steel, aluminum, and similar materials. Press fit installation means the bushing is driven permanently into the jig plate bore and is not intended for field removal or interchange during production runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePress fit installation for permanent, rigid seating in drill jig plates\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHardened steel construction at 60 to 65 HRC for extended wear life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeadless design mounts flush with jig surface, eliminating head interference\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInside diameter tolerance of +0.0001 to +0.0005 inches ensures consistent drill guidance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConforms to ANSI bushing standards, Bushing Industry Code P\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-renewable design; intended for fixed, permanent installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard P-series press fit headless drill bushing per ANSI specifications, suitable for use in drill jigs and fixtures accepting a 9\/16 inch body outside diameter bushing with a 5\/16 inch bore.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by machinists or tool-and-die technicians using a press or arbor press to drive the bushing into a properly reamed jig plate bore. The receiving bore must be held to the appropriate interference fit tolerance to ensure the bushing seats without distortion. Do not hammer the bushing in freehand, as uneven force can cock the bushing and compromise drill guidance accuracy. Once pressed in, this bushing is not designed for removal or reuse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Press Fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBushing Industry Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: P\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inch (0.3125 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Diameter Tolerance\u003c\/strong\u003e: +0.0001 to +0.0005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\/16 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Bushing Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Headless\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\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\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: PT368IM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BONEHAM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51751290470706,"sku":"PT368IM","price":15.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/772b15bcdae08b51210f0eebedf78b00_9a23a333-2880-4758-a009-d6f761e772f9.jpg?v=1788922687","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/boneham-pt368im-press-fit-headless-drill-bushing","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
