    Removable Drill Bushing Sleeves

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Drill Bushing Sleeves. Removable Drill Bushing Sleeves.
    Avoid wear caused by repeatedly pressing bushings into your jig fixture. Instead, press fit these sleeves into the fixture one time, and then swap bushings with different IDs in and out to change the size of your bit. Also known as type L headless liner bushings, they're sized for use with removable drill bushings (sometimes called slip-fixed and renewable bushings). Made of hardened steel, they won't wear as you slide the bushings in and out.

    Multipurpose Low-Carbon Steel Round Tubes

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Steel. Multipurpose Low-Carbon Steel Round Tubes.
    Also known as mild steel, low-carbon steel is easy to machine, form, and weld. It's widely fabricated into parts that don’t require high strength, such as frames, supports, and conduit.
    Stress-Relieved Heat Treatment—Tubes that are stress relieved minimize warping during machining.
    DOM—DOM (drawn over mandrel) welded tubes are stronger than ERW (electric resistance welded) tubes.

    Telescoping UHMW Polyethylene Round Tubes

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Plastic. Telescoping UHMW Polyethylene Round Tubes.
    Telescoping tubes, also known as bushing stock, slide over rods and inside shafts to increase or decrease the diameter. Their precise sizing allows ascending sizes to fit inside each other to create a thicker wall. These impact- and wear-resistant tubes offer 360° protection from scrapes and strikes to wires, cords, and anything that can slide through them. UHMW has a low-friction surface that resists sticking and binding.

    Telescoping tubes, also known as bushing stock, slide over rods and inside shafts to increase or decrease the diameter. Their precise sizing also allows ascending sizes to fit inside each other to increase the wall thickness.
    Easy to machine to close tolerances, these dimensionally stable tubes resist expanding when exposed to heat and moisture. They have a naturally slippery surface along with excellent wear resistance. Use them to make precision gears, bushings, and bearings. Delrin® acetal resin, also known as acetal homopolymer, is stronger and stiffer than acetal copolymer.

    Graphite-Embedded High-Temperature 841 Bearing Bronze Round Tubes

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Bronze. Graphite-Embedded High-Temperature 841 Bearing Bronze Round Tubes.
    Craft parts that stay slippery in temperatures as hot as 700° F. This bronze contains graphite, a dry lubricant that won’t burn away like oil. It’s a great choice for well pumps, turbine blades, and other parts that you can’t easily access to relubricate.

    Corrosion-Resistant 954 Bearing Bronze Round Tubes

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Bronze. Corrosion-Resistant 954 Bearing Bronze Round Tubes.
    One of the most corrosion-resistant bearing bronze alloys, 954 withstands everything from sea water to sulfuric acid. It's often turned into bearings and valve bodies for demanding environments such as salt mines. Also known as aluminum bronze. If you need similar corrosion resistance with even greater strength, consider 955 bearing bronze instead.

    Oil-Embedded 841 Bearing Bronze Round Tubes

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Bronze. Oil-Embedded 841 Bearing Bronze Round Tubes.
    With a porous surface that releases oil over time, this bronze lubricates itself. Turn it into parts that you can't easily access to relubricate, such as bearings, well pumps, and turbine blades. The oil may burn away if temperatures climb too high, however. For extreme heat up to 700° F, consider graphite-embedded bearing bronze instead.

    Highly Wear-Resistant Machinable Cast Nylon Round Tubes

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Plastic. Highly Wear-Resistant Machinable Cast Nylon Round Tubes.
    The addition of MDS gives these tubes exceptional wear resistance along with a self-lubricating surface. They're made of cast nylon 6, making them easier to machine and better electrical insulators than other MDS-filled nylon tubes. Tubes can be used to fabricate pulleys, bushings, and bearings installed in hard-to-reach areas where adding a lubricant would be difficult. This material is comparable to Nylatron and Nycast.
