Pre-drilling installation tips for stainless steel chipboard screws

Pre-drilling installation tips for stainless steel chipboard screws are an important step to ensure a secure connection between furniture and other structural parts. The following is a series of professional installation tips designed to improve installation efficiency, ensure connection strength and aesthetics.
Choose the right drill bit
Drill bit material: Choose a high-quality, wear-resistant drill bit, such as a carbide drill bit, to ensure that it can remain sharp when drilling holes in stainless steel chipboard and reduce resistance during the drilling process.
Drill bit size: The diameter of the drill bit should be slightly smaller than the diameter of the screw to ensure that the screw can be tightly fixed in the hole and avoid loosening.
Drill bit length: Choose the appropriate drill bit length according to the thickness of the stainless steel chipboard to ensure that the drill bit can fully penetrate the board while avoiding problems caused by being too long or too short.
Accurate measurement and marking
Measurement and positioning: Use accurate measuring tools to determine the location of the drill hole and make clear and accurate marks on the board. This helps to maintain the accuracy of the hole position during the drilling process.
Verticality check: Use tools such as a square or a level to check the verticality of the marking point to ensure that the drilling direction is perpendicular to the surface of the plate to avoid loose screw installation due to angle deviation.
Drilling operation
Stabilize the plate: Before drilling, use a clamp or workbench to fix the stainless steel particle board to prevent the plate from moving or deforming during the drilling process.
Low-speed feed: Since stainless steel is hard, it is recommended to use a low-speed feed method for drilling to reduce the risk of drill bit wear and plate breakage.
Appropriate cooling: During the drilling process, you can use a proper amount of coolant to cool the drill bit and plate, reduce the temperature and extend the service life of the drill bit.
Clean the hole chips: After drilling, clean the chips and impurities in the hole in time to ensure that the screw can be screwed in smoothly and achieve the expected tightening effect.
