Stainless (-S) is offered in inch sizes 3/16" to 3/4" and metric 6 to 25 mm; carbide (CSLB) in 1/4" to 1/2". Some sizes come in two lengths (e.g. CL-8-SLLB at .90 vs CL-8A-SLLB at .40), so confirm the part number before ordering.

How to install slotted locator bushings

  1. Drill and ream the small hole for the furnished roll pin.
  2. Bore the large hole for a .0003" to .0005" press fit.
  3. Press the bushing and roll pin in together so the slot orientation is correct.

Pair with a press-fit P bushing for primary location.

Slotted Locator Bushings FAQ

How does a slotted locator bushing work?

It holds a tight tolerance in one direction and full relief in the perpendicular direction. A standard bushing locates the first hole; the slotted bushing locates the second hole without binding, even when hole spacing varies slightly.

Steel, stainless or carbide?

Steel (Rc 58-62, black oxide) suits most fixtures. Choose 440C stainless for corrosion resistance, or carbide for maximum wear life.

Can you quote ADB, Boneham or ACTEK equivalents?
