Dowel bushings in the DB100 series are hardened, roll-formed components used to align mating parts and isolate bolts from shear loads by allowing fasteners to pass through their internal diameter. They feature a spring-action staggered seam for self-retention and easy automatic handling, with lead-in chamfers to aid installation. Available in inch sizes from 0.250 to 0.500 inches nominal bolt diameter, they are made of high carbon steel with a plain, oiled finish. The series supports single shear loads up to 10,500 lbs for the 0.500 inch bolt size, and is tested per ISO 8749 and ASME B18.8.2 Appendix B. Installed diameter, wall thickness, and recommended hole size are specified for each nominal bolt size.
Dowel bushings are used to locate components in conjunction with bolts which pass through the inside of the bushing after it has been installed. Separate holes for locating pins are eliminated. The hardened bushings also absorb shear loads, isolating the bolts from these forces.
