Критерии выбора

Размеры дюбеля подбираются исходя из следующих факторов.

Материал несущей конструкции. Дюбели одинаковой длины и диаметра, изготовленные из одного материала, в бетонных конструкциях выдерживают большую нагрузку, чем в кирпичных. А для крепления массивных предметов к пенобетону данный крепёж не подходит – не держит значительного веса и выходит из установочного отверстия. В таких случаях следует применять химические анкеры.

Нагрузка, приходящаяся на крепёжный элемент. Чем больше расчетная нагрузка, тем больше потребуется точек крепления. Перед покупкой обратите внимание на максимально допустимую и рекомендуемую нагрузку, указанную на упаковке.

Расположение. От него зависит преобладающая нагрузка: вдоль (осевая, вырывающая) или поперёк (на излом и изгиб) оси. В первом случае имеет значение длина крепежа, во втором – диаметр.

Допустимая глубина отверстия. Большая нагрузка требует максимальный размер дюбеля.

Насколько глубоко будет вкручен шуруп. Это актуально для крепежа, расположенного горизонтально: чем ближе шляпка шурупа к поверхности стены, тем меньше нагрузка на излом/изгиб и меньше допустимая длина крепежных деталей.

Для лёгких предметов

Лёгкие предметы к конструкциям из кирпича и бетона крепятся пластиковыми дюбелями диаметром 6 мм с шурупом. Сверло подбирается равного диаметра. Длина дюбеля для крепления к стене и потолку, соответственно, 4 и 6 см (значения приведены минимальные). Глубина монтажного отверстия – на 5 мм больше.

Для предметов среднего веса

С задачей справляются дюбель-гвоздь, представляющий собой крепёжную пару. Один из плюсов его использования – скорость монтажа (наименование «дюбель быстрого монтажа»). Последовательность крепления следующая:

• сверлится отверстие выбранного диаметра и глубины;
• из отверстия удаляется пыль;
• устанавливается пластиковая деталь крепёжной пары;
• «гвоздь», несмотря на присутствие резьбы, забивается молотком, что и даёт выигрыш во времени при монтаже (по сравнению с шурупом).

Диаметр применяемого в данном случае дюбеля, минимум 8 мм. Длина – 6 и 8 см для крепления к стене и к потолку. Диаметр сверла подбирается аналогично рассмотренному способу «для лёгких предметов». Количество точек фиксации – до 4-х.

Для тяжёлых предметов

Массивные предметы (подставки под телевизоры, книжные полки, мебельные шкафы, аппаратура) крепятся метизами с дюбелями, диаметр которых составляет не менее 10 мм. Длины для крепления к стенам и потолкам, соответственно, 6 и 8 см. Количество точек фиксации – не меньше шести.

Крепление анкерными болтами

Более надёжное крепление тяжёлых предметов обеспечивается анкерными болтами. Приемлемый для значительной нагрузки диаметр – от 8 мм. Различаются следующие типы креплений:

• с гайкой. После установки такого анкера гайку затягивают ключом;
• с потайной головкой. Затягиваются «фигурной» отвёрткой;
• двухраспорные – с двумя распорными гильзами – для креплений, испытывающих значительные нагрузки, например, оконных и дверных коробок.

Сверло под анкеры подбирается иначе чем для пластиковых дюбелей: на 1 – 2 мм больше. Необходимое значение рекомендуется подбирать исходя из информации, представленной в таблице значений или по маркировке анкера.

Крепление к конструкциям из слабых материалов

К определению «слабых» материалов относятся гипсокартон, пористые (лёгкие) бетоны, пустотелый кирпич.

Общее правило сверления отверстий в перечисленных материалах – исключение ударного режима.

Рекомендуется применять нейлоновые дюбели. Их диаметры должны быть больше, чем для конструкций из полновесного бетона или кирпича. Диаметр же отверстия меньше дюбельного на 2 мм.

Для крепления к стенам из листового материала (гипсокартон, ДСП, ОСП и т. п.) подойдут дюбели-бабочки.

Как правильно просверлить отверстие под дюбель

Последовательность следующая:

• разметить центры будущих отверстий;
• просверлить;
• удалить из отверстия пыль с помощью строительного пылесоса или резиновой груши и ёршика;
• вставить дюбель выбранного ранее типа;
• совместить крепёжные отверстия на предмете, требующем установки, с точками фиксации;
• вкрутить в дюбели шурупы или вбить «гвозди».

Выводы по подбору сверла под дюбели

Чтобы правильно выбрать тип, диаметр и длину дюбелей, нужно знать следующее:

1. Какой материал у несущей конструкции?
2. Какая нагрузка приходится на крепёжный элемент?
3. Какое расположение крепежа: вертикальное или горизонтальное?
4. Какая глубина будущего отверстия?
5. Насколько глубоко будет вкручен шуруп?

Ответив на эти вопросы, можно решить, какого типа и размера подходит крепеж для решения конкретной задачи. А как правильно подобрать сверло подскажет маркировка.

Подбор сверла под дюбель и шуруп

Дюбель – это крепежное изделие, предназначенное для закрепления элементов конструкции к несущим основаниям. Применяется совместно с другим крепежом: саморезами, шурупами, винтами

Размер отверстия под дюбель зависит от типа оснований. Диаметр сверла должен точно соответствовать диаметру дюбеля, если конструкция крепится к кирпичной – твердой или бетонной стене.

 

 

Если крепление производится к рыхлой стене, то диаметр сверла должен быть на 1-2 мм меньше, диаметра дюбеля. Важно чтобы глубина сверления всегда была больше на 5 мм длины дюбеля. Ниже приведена таблица подбора сверла под дюбель и шуруп для плотного основания.

Диаметр дюбеля,мм	Длина дюбеля, мм	Диаметр сверла,мм	Длина сверла, мм	Диаметр шурупа,мм

Как правильно подобрать сверло под дюбель

Если вы затеяли ремонт или строительство, то, конечно же, будете искать самые лучшие материалы для выполнения задачи, ведь от этого зависит эффективность и успешность работ. Мелочей в этом деле не бывает, поскольку именно из суммы мелочей и складывается общий результат. В частности, от знания, как правильно подобрать сверло под дюбель, зависит, как будет дюбель забит, то есть качество и надежность самого крепления.

В целом все вполне просто: диаметр используемого для работ сверла всегда должен соответствовать диаметру применяемого дюбеля. Может показаться, что вставить дюбель в отверстие, которое точно равно диаметру дюбеля, сложно. На самом деле дело обстоит несколько иначе, и суть в том, что при сверлении основания из бетона или кирпича, особенно в режиме перфорации, отверстие будет неизбежно расширяться. То есть после сверления получившееся отверстие будет на один-два миллиметра шире, чем диаметр вашего сверла. А если к этому прибавить заранее внесенные коррективы, разница может достигать и более существенных величин, что может привести к нежелательным последствиям: ваш дюбель будет держаться очень непрочно, что совершенно нежелательно.

Сверла с точки зрения их технических характеристик

Если говорить о длине сверла, используемого при ремонтных или строительных работах, следует отметить, что этот показатель должен быть на три-пять миллиметров больше длины дюбеля. А если вы возьмете сверло такой же длины, что и дюбель, он может полностью не поместиться. Причиной этого обычно является пыль, которая застрянет в отверстии при сверлении либо вследствие несоответствия дна отверстия и формы торца дюбеля. В любом случае, необходимо сделать некоторый напуск. Чтобы можно было максимально точно просчитать длину сверла под дюбель, для начала желательно выполнить несколько пробных отверстий, то есть опытным путем настроить все наилучшим образом. К примеру, можно повесить полку или светильник в гараже или в кладовке, где огрехи в расчетах, сказавшиеся на вашей работе, будут не столь критичны.

Для простоты понимания и для наглядности ниже приведена таблица, в которой приведены оптимальные соотношения длины дюбеля и длины сверла.

Диаметр дюбеля	Диаметр сверла	Длина дюбеля	Длина сверла
5 мм	5 мм	25 мм	28 мм
6 мм	6 мм	30 мм	33 мм
8 мм	8 мм	40 мм	43 мм
10 мм	10 мм	50 мм	55 мм

Помимо сказанного, можно еще добавить, что если вы будете сверлить под дюбель кирпичную стену, нужно помнить о некоторых особенностях проведения работ. Сначала следует высверлить отверстие чуть меньшего диаметра, чем предполагаемое. Разница может быть 2-5 миллиметров. Она зависит от глубины сверления. Потом сверло необходимо поменять на большее и расширить отверстие. Такая процедура повторяется несколько раз: до тех пор, пока вы не получите нужные вам параметры. Почему так важна эта последовательность действий? Дело в том, что кирпич склонен к основательному крошению при сверлении. Это объясняется особенностями структуры материала. И чтобы минимизировать это качество, приходится применять подобные ухищрения.

В остальном выбор нужного сверла под дюбель выступает достаточно простой задачей, однако очень значимой. Успех выполнения работы по сверлению отверстий под дюбель будет зависеть наполовину от грамотного выбора сверла. Помним что результатом должна быть прочность установки дюбелей, то есть прочность самого крепежа. В строительных и ремонтных работах все взаимосвязано, мелочей просто не существует, важность имеют даже незначительные на первый взгляд нюансы.

90000 How Do I Choose the Right Drill Bit Size? (With pictures) 90001 90002 Many novice woodworkers make the mistake of drilling screws into boards without first creating a pilot hole, through which the screw can travel with less friction and less risk of cracking the board. The correct drill bit size needs to be chosen in order to create a correctly sized pilot hole, and choosing the right size is not exceptionally difficult. If the wrong size drill bit is chosen, the woodworker runs the risk of splitting the board, or creating a hole that is too large and therefore not able to give the screw enough wood to grip into.90003 90004 Having the right drill bit set can open up different project possibilities. 90002 The right drill bit size will depend on the size of the screw, if one is being used, as well as the intended purpose of the drilling.To choose the right drill bit size for a screw, you can either obtain a drilling chart that outlines which size drill bit is most appropriate for the size of screw being used, or you can make the measurement by eye. Start by laying out a few bits that are similar in size to the diameter of the screw shaft. Hold the screw so the tip is facing you, and then hold different sized bits, one at a time, next to the screw. Try to find the drill bit that is slightly smaller than the diameter of the screw shaft, including the threads.90003 90007 A drill with a Forstner bit. 90002 Choosing a bit that is too small will reduce, but not eliminate, the risk of cracking the wood when the screw is inserted.Choosing a bit that is too large will run the risk of preventing the screw from gripping into the wood. The bit should be only slightly smaller than the size of the screw for optimal screwing purposes. 90003 90002 Want to automatically save time and money month? Take a 2-minute quiz to find out how you can start saving up to $ 257 / month. 90003 90012 Similar to drill bits, reamers are used to widen an existing hole in metal into an exact diameter.90002 The drill bit size can also vary if a countersink bit is being used. This bit features two cutting elements: the drill bit itself, and another, triangle-shaped cutting edge situated at the high end of the bit. This triangle-shaped cutting surface will cut into the face of the board once the bit has cut into the wood far enough.It will create a larger hole around the smaller shaft hole so a screw’s head can be pressed until it is flush with the surface of the board. The length of the bit shaft will therefore be important as well as the diameter, and the diameter of the triangular cutting surface will need to match or come close to the size of the screw head. 90003 90015 To create a pilot hole, use a drill bit slightly narrower than the width of the screw..90000 Drill dead-on dowel joints 90001 90002 Dowels dramatically increase the strength of many joints. But this seemingly simple joinery method can be unforgiving: Misalign one dowel hole by a fraction of an inch, and you might as well miss it by a mile-the joint simply will not go together. To prevent that from happening to you, we present here solutions to three common doweling problems. 90003 90002 But first, consider these essential tips to improve the accuracy of your dowel joints. 90003 90006 90007 Mark locations with a marking knife or sharp pencil.A fat pencil tip robs you of precision. 90008 90007 Use sharp brad point bits instead of twist bits (because you typically drill dowel holes on end or edge grain, which encourages twist bits to wander). 90008 90007 Mount a stop collar to your bit to get consistent hole depths. (Drill 90012 1 90013/90014 8 90015 “Deeper than one-half the dowel length.) 90008 90017 90018 Vertical misalignment 90019 90002 90021 90003 90002 90024 Problem: 90025 My edge-to-edge joint fits together, but the faces are not flush.90003 90002 90024 Solution: 90025 The jig’s guide holes may not be centered between its faces. Always reference the jig against common faces of each mating piece (shown below). Do so, and though the holes may not center in the boards ‘thickness, they will line up. 90003 90002 90032 90003 90018 Horizontal misalignment 90019 90002 90037 90003 90002 90024 Problem: 90025 After drilling the edge of one board, I’m having trouble duplicating the hole spacing on the mating piece.90003 90002 90024 Solution: 90025 To ensure mating dowel holes, skip measuring altogether and use dowel centers (90012 3 90013/90014 8 90015 “Dowel centers, # 42366, 800-279-4441, rockler.com). First, use your jig to drill all the dowel holes in one of the two mating pieces; then slip a dowel center in each hole (as shown 90050 below 90051) and clamp the joint together. A dimple left by the dowel center shows you where to drill the mating dowel hole. Locate the doweling jig over the dimple and drill the hole (90050 second photo below 90051).90003 90002 90056 For dead-on dimples, tighten the clamps only enough to pull the mating pieces together loosely, fine tune the alignment, and tighten. 90003 90002 90059 Slide a brad point bit through the jig and into the dimple. While holding the bit in place, tighten the jig to the workpiece; then drill. 90003 90018 Sloppy fit 90019 90002 90024 Problem: 90025 I set the jig up correctly, but the, dowels still fit sloppily in the drilled holes.90003 90002 90068 90003 90002 90024 Solution: 90025 Check that the dowels have been made to precisely the rigtht diameter (90050 below 90051). Mass-produced, commercially available dowels may be manufactured slightly over or undersized, and, like most wood, swell or shrink with humidity change. If the dowel size matches, it may be that your jig’s guide holes have become worn and imprecise-leading to sloppy dowel holes. Replace any guide hole inserts, or, if the jig does not have them, discard the jig.90003 90002 90077 Before heading to the home center to purchase dowels, tuck a caliper in your pocket. Measure before you purchase to ensure they’ll fit. 90003 .90000 How to choose the right size clock movements and hands 90001 90002 How To Choose Clock Motors and Hands How to Choose Clock Inserts Clock Hands & Motors Sizing Calculator 90003 90004 Click on an option to expand 90005 Your key measurements for picking a clock insert? 90006 (A) On our website, a 3-1 / 2 “(90 mm) Clock Insert has a 3-1 / 2 inch (90 mm) Outside Diameter (# 2 in the picture below) and the mounting hole size 90007 (# 1 in picture to the left) it goes into can vary by size, but will be less than 3-1 / 2 inches.90007 (B) When you find an insert that you like, Click for More Info to see the hole size 90007 (C) The insert will fit into.
