FAQs

What is System 32?

System 32 is a standardized drilling pattern used in furniture construction, featuring holes spaced 32mm apart. This jig helps mark these positions accurately.

Can this jig be used for any type of hinge?

The jig is specifically designed for 35 mm and 26 mm diameter pot hinges with a 4 mm cup distance. It may not be suitable for all hinge types.

What material is the Hettich 351 jig made of?

The jig is made of durable blue plastic.

Is this jig suitable for professional cabinet makers?

Yes, it is designed as a handy tool for on-site installation and professional mounting without large machinery.

How do I ensure the markings are correct for different fittings?

The jig has specific guides for each type of fitting (hinges, Rastex 25, VB 35/135). Ensure you align the jig correctly and use the corresponding guide channel for the fitting you are installing.

What is the advantage of this jig over manual measuring?

The jig ensures consistent spacing and accurate positioning for multiple holes, significantly reducing errors and speeding up the installation process compared to manual measuring.

Can I use this jig on curved surfaces?

This jig is designed for flat surfaces. Using it on curved surfaces may lead to inaccurate markings.

How is the quantity per pack specified?

The product information states 'Quantity per pack: 1 pc(s)', meaning you receive one jig per purchase.

Troubleshooting

Inaccurate hole markings

Ensure the jig is held firmly and accurately aligned with the workpiece edge or reference point. Check for any debris on the jig or workpiece that might be causing misalignment. Verify that you are using the correct side of the jig for the intended marking.

Jig slides during marking

Hold the jig firmly in place with one hand while marking with the other. For some applications, temporary clamping of the jig to the workpiece might be beneficial, especially on smooth surfaces.

Difficulty marking small holes

Use a sharp pencil or a fine-tipped marker for precise marking. Ensure the marking tip is centered within the jig's guide hole.
