HETTICH Drill Jig for VB Assembly per piece

Usage

The HETTICH Drill-Jig VB is designed for precise drilling of holes for VB connecting fittings and dowels, supporting the assembly of furniture panels in both custom and standard cabinetry applications.

Advantages

• Ensures accurate positioning of connecting fittings using fixed stops and guides[1][6].
• Compatible with panel thicknesses commonly used in furniture making (16 mm and 19 mm)[7][6].
• Facilitates efficient installation by combining multiple drilling templates in one set[4][7].
• Supports System 32 hole spacing for reliable assembly to industry standards[1][7].
• A minor requirement: operation requires a standard power drill or cordless screwdriver (not included)[9][7].

Specifications

• The jig set includes: one drill body for VB fittings, one drill body for dowels, one Ø10 mm chuck-mounted drill bit, and one Ø20 mm chuck-mounted drill bit; hex driver included[4][2][7]. Compatible with VB models such as VB18–21, VB35/35M/36/36M, and more.
• Bodies are constructed from robust materials designed to withstand repeated use; carbide-tipped bits offer extended durability[7]. No specific certification required but aligns with typical joinery standards.
• Provides precision-drilling at standard intervals (holes spaced at 32 mm; fixed stop at distance of 37 mm from panel edge)[1][7]; supports drilling depths appropriate for supported connector types.
• Differentiators include dual-sided templates suitable for various panel sizes and built-in stops that eliminate manual measuring for most applications. Minimizes risk of bit slippage during angled or partial-depth drilling[6][7].

How it works

Select the appropriate template side based on your panel thickness. Position the jig against the workpiece edge using integrated stops. Secure in place, insert the required drill bit into your power tool, then drill through guide sleeves to achieve consistent hole placement before inserting connecting hardware[6][8]
