1829 × 38 × 0.9mm Chrome-Plated Brass Piano Hinge

This light-duty brass piano hinge, also known as a continuous hinge, measures 1829mm long and 38mm wide when fully open. Its 0.9mm brass leaves have a bright polished-chrome finish, giving the hinge a silver appearance.

Continuous hinges are widely used for cabinets, furniture, cases, boxes, lids and access panels where support is required along an extended hinged edge.

The in-line countersunk fixing holes are arranged in opposing pairs at 60mm centres and accept No.4 woodscrews. The hinge has a 2.3mm-diameter pin and a 15mm knuckle length.

Supplied as one complete 1829mm hinge length. It may be professionally cut to a shorter required length using suitable equipment. Cutting exposes an unfinished edge, so protect surrounding plated surfaces and deburr the cut carefully.
