    Also known as jig bushings, these drill bushings fit inside fixture plate holes to precisely guide drill bits, counterbores, reamers, and other cutting tools. They improve accuracy so your drilled holes and cuts are consistent from part to part. Known for their versatility, drill bushings are also used as spacers, shims, and machinery bushings.
    Press into place with a manual or hydraulic press. Since these bushings are sized slightly larger than the hole for an extremely tight fit, they’ll stay put permanently. These are ANSI Type P bushings—also known as headless bushings—which means you don’t need to counterbore the hole to mount them flush.

    A flanged head on these bushings acts as a stop, so they won’t press through your jig even under extreme drilling pressure. They’re ANSI Type H bushings, also known as headed bushings. The head adds support and protects the jig from damage caused by heavy use, so they’re often used in jigs made of thin or soft materials. These bushings guide your drill bit, reamer, or other cutting bit to create accurate, consistent holes from one workpiece to the next. They’re also used as spacers, shims, and machinery bushings. Made of hardened, ground steel, they hold their shape and resist wear, so they last for many cycles without needing to be replaced.
    To install, fit the bushing into a hole in your jig. In a standard hole, the head will sit above the jig plate; to mount flush, install in a countersunk hole. A chamfered edge on the bottom of the bushing helps center the bushing in the hole. Once it’s centered, press the bushing into place with a hydraulic or lever press.

    Sleeve Bearings

    These bearings don’t come with a lubricant, so you can select the oil that meets the needs of your application. You’ll need to refill the oil, so make sure the bearing is located where you can access it. All are fabricated and inspected in the U.S.
    With no moving parts, sleeve bearings are the simplest way to support the load of a rotating shaft while reducing friction. Also known as plain bearings.
    High-Load 932 Bearing Bronze—These bearings are strong enough for sudden starts and stops, plus they resist wear and tear. They are cast from an alloy of leaded tin bronze for uniform rigidity and strength. Also known as 660 leaded bronze bearings.

    Grooved Sleeve Bearings

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Sleeve Bearings. Grooved Sleeve Bearings.
    A figure-8-shaped groove provides a flow path for lubricant and distributes it evenly inside the bearing’s surface. A refill hole on the outside lets you inject your lubricant straight into the groove. These bearings don’t come with a lubricant, so you can select the oil that meets the needs of your application. You’ll need to refill the oil, so make sure the bearing is located where you can access it. All are fabricated and inspected in the U.S.

    High-Load Chemical-Resistant 954 Bearing Bronze—The strongest of our bronze bearings. The addition of iron and aluminum makes them exceptionally strong and resistant to chemicals. They’re often used in the most demanding environments, such as salt mines. Also known as aluminum bronze.

    Flanged sleeve bearings combine a sleeve and thrust bearing in one. The flange supports thrust loads and prevents the bearing from being pushed out of place. The sleeve is the simplest way to support the load of a rotating shaft while reducing friction. Also known as plain bearings.

    Lift the top off to install, inspect, and maintain your shaft without full disassembly. Inside, the sleeve is made from babbitt, a tough, corrosion-resistant alloy. With no moving parts, sleeve bearings stand up to dusty, dirty environments better than ball or roller bearings. However, with more friction generated, they're less effective at high speeds. The sturdy housing bolts down to support shafts as they turn.
    Lubricate regularly through the housing's lubrication port to keep your bearing in tip-top shape. The grooves help to evenly distribute lubrication across the bearing's surface.
