What is a drill bush?

A drill bush is a guiding element for a cutting tool such as a drill bit during a machining operation such as drilling or countersinking.

The percussion barrel takes the form of a hollow cylinder with an axial through-hole.

The drill bush is inserted into an opening previously made in a drilling jig. The cutting tool is then inserted into the hole in the drill bush.

A drill bush offers a fast solution for drilling mass-produced parts, without the need to measure and mark out holes beforehand. These practical tools guide the drill bit directly into the drilling fixture, guaranteeing a customized drilling template and preventing any deviation of the drill bit.

Unlike manual drilling without a device, the drilling operation is greatly simplified, resulting in a much cleaner result thanks to the angle and penetration stroke predefined by the drill bush.

Drill bushes are indispensable when you need to carry out mass production drilling operations, whether you need to drill dozens, hundreds or even thousands of parts with identical centres.

All you have to do is fit your drill bushes at the specified centres to create a drilling gauge. This gauge will be positioned and held on your workpieces, enabling you to drill them evenly and precisely.

Based on this simple principle, you will find different varieties of drill bushes to meet your specific needs. Among these drill bushes, you'll find removable and fixed models. 

Fixed barrels are specially designed to fit precisely into the jig, whether cylindrical or with a small collar.

As for the removable barrels, they are fitted with a large, uniquely shaped collar, enabling them to be held securely in place in the jig by special shoulder screws.

At Gardette Industries, we offer you a range of piercing barrels

Cylindrical drill bushes conforming to din 179 are renowned for their ability to ensure precise positioning. Their cylindrical characteristic makes them ideal for this function, facilitating flush insertion and guaranteeing optimum use.

Our standard drill bushes are A-shaped, i.e. the hole is rounded at one end.

In the case of din 172-compliant drill bushes, the collar plays a crucial role in holding the bush in place during drilling. Thanks to this collar, sockets do not sink down during use, ensuring total control over their positioning. It should be noted that the flange of DIN 172 sockets is slightly raised for this purpose.

When to use a drill bush?

As previously stated, a drill bush is used for precision machining operations.

Drill bushings and drill barrels can be found in many sectors such as : 

  • Mechanical engineering
  • Toolmaking in the automotive industry
  • All sectors where machining is required

These drill bushes will enable you to carry out repetitive drilling operations, guiding your drill with the utmost precision.

Made from hardened steel, with a strength of 63/65 HRC, Gardette Industries' percussion barrels promise excellent wear resistance and long service life.

The use of a drill bush offers incredible versatility. In addition to their main function, drill bushes can also be used as wear parts in the spindle of a machine. By using them in this way, you avoid wear and tear on the spindle, while improving productivity and reducing costs.

List of advantages of using a drill bush for serial drilling operations

  • Fast, efficient drilling
  • Custom drilling template
  • Precise, easy configuration
  • Eliminate the risk of drill deviation
  • Simplifying the drilling process
  • Solid materials for superior quality and durability.
