The versatile hinge with multiple uses in various projects

A friction hinge is meant to be used on the uPVC double glazing windows where there is no requirement of a catch for securing the windows. Various manufacturers use durable glazing in the different styles of the friction hinges. Therefore, caution must be exercised when these are bought as replacements. They may or may not suit a particular window.

Manufactured windows generally have a line riveted to the cement and the frames. This can make removal of the old things a problem. However, modern parts manufacturers and engineers are finding newer uses for the smart hinges with each passing day.
 
The boats and ships are a common application for accessing the hardware friction hinges for holding open or hatching the radio box. In some cases, the hatch spring and gas shocks are getting replaced with friction hinges.

General Aspects related to use of Friction Hinges 

 


 

When something opens, tilts, rotate or closes one would desire to be able to adjust the same.  In a few applications, one can achieve the desired result with the use of the friction hinges. The friction that is built into the hinge’s barrel cannot be adjusted.
