The humble hinge is constantly being developed and upgraded to ensure that specialist enclosure or cabinet makers have the right component whatever the application.

A good example is the new Pinet range from FDB Panel Fittings – in this case, its new dual-function 301 Stainless Steel torque/friction variants to help regulate door opening/closing with a torque or friction function.

These 85mm long hinges feature constant torque/friction with temperature stable characteristics in a “gull wing” design which raises the pivot for easier operation. Fixing is by 6.3mm pre-drilled holes, with hinge pins sealed by polyethylene caps.

FDB Panel Fittings and sister company FDB Electrical share their online shopping website. Further information on FDB products and services may be found at www.fdb.co.uk. Find the latest information and news on the FDB blog, follow the company on Twitter or check out its YouTube channel.
