Guide Bush Set - Metric

Guide bushes are used when material is required to be routed to a set pattern or shape. They are used in conjunction with worktop jigs, lock jigs, hinge jigs, sign writing jigs and any other form of router copying template. These guide bushes are precision machined from solid brass to ensure perfect concentricity and dimensional accuracy. If a guide bush is not 100% concentric then the finished workpiece will not be a true copy of the template or jig and as such could ruin an expensive workpiece.

This 11 piece set is supplied in a heavy duty storage case and contains 8 x metric guide bushes, 2 x locking nuts and a solid brass adaptor plate which fits most leading brands of router. As well as fitting into the adaptor plate the individual guide bushes are commonly used on router sub-bases and router table inserts. When using these guide bushes it is recommended that a minimum allowance of 3.5mm between the router bit and outside of the bush is made, to allow the waste to clear the guide bush.

The set comprises of industry standard, outside diameter guide bushes of 10mm, 12mm, 14mm, 16mm, 18mm, 20mm, 24mm, and 30mm, all with a 30mm outside diameter threaded ring. The solid brass adaptor plate measures 67.5mm externally which is recessed to fit a 61mm router base opening. This is a premium guide bush set precision machined from solid brass that should not be confused with budget pressed steel or plastic guide bushes. ©
