How to fit the wall plugs/如何固定膨胀螺丝

English

Where to buy:

Wall Plug ❗️Use a cable/pipe detector (or carefully review house plans) to ensure you won’t drill into any hidden wiring, water pipes, or gas lines.

1. Choose the Right Wall Plug

• Choose plug type based on wall:
• Standard nylon plugs → solid brick/concrete.
• Expansion plugs or cavity anchors → plasterboard/hollow walls.

2. Drill the Hole

• Start small: Begin with a slightly smaller drill bit to create a pilot hole, then switch to the correct size drill bit for the wall plug. This helps accuracy and reduces the chance of the bit wandering.

• Drill mode first: Use the regular rotation-only drill mode first.

• Use SDS (hammer) only if needed: If the wall is too hard and the hole won’t progress, switch to SDS/hammer mode — but avoid starting with it, as it can chip or crack the surface.
• Milwaukee 18V Fuel SDS Plus

• Depth check: Drill a little deeper than the plug length, so the screw doesn’t bottom out.

3. Clean the Hole

• Remove dust with a vacuum, blower, or simply tap around the hole.

• A clean hole helps the plug grip firmly.

4. Insert the Wall Plug

• Push the plug flush with the wall surface.

• Tap gently with a hammer if needed (don’t crush it).

5. Screw In

• Position the bracket or fitting, then drive the screw into the plug.

• As the screw tightens, the plug expands inside the wall for a secure hold.

Wall Plug ❗️使用电缆/管道探测器（或仔细查看房屋平面图），确保不会钻到任何隐藏的电线、水管或煤气管。

1. 选择合适的膨胀螺丝

• 根据墙面类型选择插销：
• 标准尼龙插销 → 实心砖/混凝土。
• 膨胀插销或空腔锚固件 → 石膏板/空心墙。

2. 钻孔

• 从小开始：先用稍小的钻头钻一个引导孔，然后换成与墙面插销匹配的正确尺寸钻头。这有助于提高精确度并减少钻头偏移的可能性。

• 先使用普通钻孔模式：首先使用常规仅旋转钻孔模式。

• 仅在必要时使用SDS（锤击）模式：如果墙面太硬且钻孔无法进展，才切换到SDS/锤击模式——但避免一开始就使用它，因为这可能会使表面开裂或破损。
• Milwaukee 18V Fuel SDS Plus

• 深度检查：钻孔深度应略深于插销长度，这样螺丝不会碰到底部。

3. 清理孔洞

• 用吸尘器、吹风机清除灰尘，或者简单地敲击孔周围。

• 干净的孔洞有助于插销牢固抓紧。

4. 插入墙面插销

• 将插销推入，使其与墙面齐平。

• 如有需要，可用锤子轻轻敲打（不要压碎它）。

5. 拧入螺丝

• 放置支架或配件，然后将螺丝拧入插销。

• 随着螺丝拧紧，插销在墙内膨胀，形成牢固的固定。
