Hold Fast Non-Stick Bushings For Ca Pen Finishing
Make finishing easier
No more bushings glued to barrels
Material will not stick to pen barrels
Using CA glue to finish your pen turnings results in a lustrous, glossy polish, but it can also fuse your pen blank to the bushings. Not so with these non-stick polyethylene bushings in place, however. These bushings are made from UHMW, the same super-slippery polymer used in our Plastic Jig Stock. They're pre-drilled for a standard mandrel, and have a 60° taper so they'll fit most any size pen bushing. Just swap these for your metal bushings once the pen is turned, and apply your finish. 4-Pack. Features: Non-Stick Pen Bushings are made of UHMW (Ultra-High Molecular Weight) polyethylene Pre-drilled for a standard 7mm mandrel (e.g. 43537, sold separately) 60° cone-shaped taper fits any size pen bushing After shaping the pen blank, replace the metal bushings with non-stick plastic bushings and apply your CA finish Self-lubricating UHMW has a low coefficient of friction, so it sheds glue easily Very stable - 10x heavier than regular high-density polyethylene High abrasion resistance and high impact strength even at low temperatures Resistant to chemicals
