Plastic Friction Hinges



Plastic hinges are a lightweight alternative to metal hinges and provide smooth, silent operation. Constant resistance through the full range of motion holds lids, panels, and doors at any angle. All of these hinges have a nonremoveable pin to deter tampering.
Acetal hinges are more moisture resistant than nylon.

Friction Hinges




Constant resistance through the full range of motion holds lids, panels, and doors at any angle. All hinges have a nonremoveable pin to deter tampering. Style 3 includes a snap-on cover to hide the mounting fasteners.
Zinc hinges have mild corrosion resistance.
Aluminum hinges are about half the weight of zinc. They also have mild corrosion resistance.
304 stainless steel hinges are more corrosion resistant than zinc and aluminum. They also have good chemical resistance.

Adjustable-Friction Hinges




Tighten or loosen an adjustment screw to change the hinge resistance. Constant resistance through the full range of motion holds lids, panels, and doors at any angle. These hinges discourage tampering, since they can’t be taken apart without damaging the hinge. Capacity is based on one hinge per door.
Plastic hinges are a lightweight alternative to metal hinges.
Stainless steel hinges are stronger and more corrosion resistant than plastic hinges.

360° Friction Hinges








These hinges allow 360° of motion. Constant resistance through the full range of motion holds lids, panels, and doors at any angle. All hinges have a nonremoveable pin to deter tampering. To choose a door mounting location, stand on the pull side of the door—use a right-side hinge if the hinge is on the right or a left-side hinge if it’s on the left.
Zinc hinges have mild corrosion resistance.
