Boneham SFT2816HX Slip-fixed Drill Bushing 9/32 in Id

Product Description

The BONEHAM SFT2816HX is a slip-fixed drill bushing designed to guide cutting tools accurately during drilling, reaming, and boring operations. Built from steel, this bushing features a 9/32 inch inside diameter, a 7/16 inch body outside diameter, and a 1 inch length under the head. The headed design seats securely in a jig plate, and the slip-fixed installation method allows the bushing to be removed and replaced without disturbing the liner. A compatible lock screw (LS-TW-2) retains the bushing in position during operation. Licensed machinists, tool and die makers, and precision fabrication shops rely on this type of bushing to maintain repeatable hole location across production runs.

This bushing is suited for use in drill jigs and fixture plates in precision machining environments, both in job-shop and production settings. The renewable design allows worn bushings to be swapped out without replacing the entire jig plate, reducing downtime and tooling cost. It is appropriate for applications requiring tight inside diameter tolerance control, as the bore is held to a +0.0001 to +0.0005 inch tolerance. The head outside diameter measures 5/8 inch with a 1/4 inch head height, making it compatible with standard counterbore configurations in jig tooling.

Key Features

Compatibility

Compatible with LS-TW-2 lock screws. Designed as an OEM-style slip-fixed renewable drill bushing for use in standard drill jig liners accepting a 7/16 inch body outside diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or tooling specialists working with drill jig fixtures. Power down all associated machinery before servicing or replacing jig bushings. Insert the bushing into the liner until the head seats flush against the jig plate, then secure with the appropriate LS-TW-2 lock screw. Ensure the inside diameter is clean and free of chips or debris before use to maintain hole-location accuracy.
