Dayton Lamina 6-04-61 Steel Short Shoulder Die Bushing

Product Description

The DAYTON LAMINA 6-04-61 is a steel short shoulder bushing designed for die mold and tooling applications. It features a 0.5 inch inside diameter with a bottom outside diameter of 1.062 inches and a collar outside diameter of 1.062 inches. The top outside diameter measures 13/16 inches and the length above collar is 11/16 inches. This press-fit, non-self-lubricating friction bushing provides precise bore guidance within die sets and mold assemblies. It is installed by toolmakers and die maintenance technicians in machine shops and stamping facilities.

This bushing is suited for use in die mold assemblies where a short shoulder configuration is required. The press-fit attachment method allows it to be driven or pressed directly into the die plate without additional fasteners. The friction bushing design provides consistent bore alignment during punch and die operations. It is a standard component in progressive, compound, and blanking die sets used in metal stamping and forming operations.

Key Features

• Short shoulder body type for compact die stack installations
• 0.5 inch inside diameter with 1.062 inch bottom outside diameter for precise fitment
• Press-fit attachment method eliminates need for additional fasteners
• Steel construction provides durability under repeated punch and die cycling
• Non-self-lubricating friction design compatible with external lubrication practices
• Collar outside diameter of 1.062 inches with 11/16 inch length above collar

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard die component for use in short shoulder bushing applications within metal stamping and die mold assemblies requiring a 0.5 inch inside diameter press-fit friction bushing.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a toolmaker or die maintenance technician using an arbor press or hydraulic press. Ensure the receiving bore in the die plate is clean, within tolerance, and free of burrs before pressing the bushing in place. Power down and lock out all associated stamping equipment before performing any die maintenance or bushing replacement. Applying a light coat of oil to the bushing exterior prior to pressing can aid seating without damaging the bore.
