Drill Bushings for Plastic
Serrations line the sides of these bushings to keep them from spinning while you drill. Also known as jig bushings, they’re pressed or molded into plastic tooling to guide drill bits, counterbores, and reamers. They help you create consistent, accurate holes from part to part.
Also Available: Other sizes. Please select 3378A999 and specify ID, OD, and length.

Secure-Hold Drill Bushings for Plastic
Designed to grip slippery plastic, the knurls on these bushings keep them from spinning while you drill. Their hold is stronger than serrated bushings, so they can withstand more force. Press or mold into plastic tooling to guide your drill bit and create accurate, consistent holes.

Drill Bushings for Soft Metal and Wood
Serrations on these bushings dig into wood, aluminum, and other soft metals to keep them from spinning while you drill. Also known as jig bushings, they fit inside fixture plates to guide drill bits, counterbores, and reamers. They improve accuracy so that your drilled holes and cuts are consistent from part to part.

Oil-Embedded Sleeve Bearings
Startup friction causes these bearings to release a thin layer of oil on the bearing’s surface. They are also known as Oilite® bearings.
Note: Dynamic load capacity is the maximum load a bearing can withstand at a given shaft speed. If your application’s load and speed requirements are below the values listed, the bearing will work.

High-Load Oil-Embedded Flanged Sleeve Bearings
Increased iron content makes these bearings stronger and more resistant to shock loads than standard oil-embedded bearings; however they operate at lower speeds. Startup friction causes these bearings to release a thin layer of oil onto their surface. Color is silver because of the iron.
863 iron-copper bearings are also known as Super Oilite® bearings.
