PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Blum 70T3590.TL CLIP Top 110° Overlay Unsprung INSERTA Hinge - Nickel
The Blum 70T3590.TL is a free-moving, unsprung concealed hinge for full-overlay cabinet doors. Its unsprung action makes it particularly suitable for handleless doors operated by Blum TIP-ON.
This version features Blum’s INSERTA hinge-cup fixing. The hinge cup can be secured to a correctly prepared cabinet door without screws or insertion machinery, making installation fast and repeatable.
The 70T3590.TL does not contain a closing spring or integrated BLUMOTION. When combined with a compatible TIP-ON unit, the cabinet door opens with a light press and moves freely without working against a hinge spring.

Designed for TIP-ON handleless doors
An unsprung hinge does not pull the cabinet door closed. This free movement allows a compatible TIP-ON ejector to push the door open when the front is pressed.
For standard overlay doors, pair the hinge with a suitable Blum TIP-ON short door unit and magnet. The TIP-ON mechanism is a separate product and is not supplied with this hinge.
What is Blum INSERTA?
INSERTA is Blum’s tool-free method of securing the hinge cup to the cabinet door. The hinge is placed into a correctly prepared drilling pattern consisting of one 35mm hinge-cup hole, two 8mm fixing holes, and 45mm fixing-hole centres. Closing the INSERTA locking flap expands the fixings and secures the hinge cup without screws.
INSERTA is different from a knock-in fixing, which normally requires suitable hinge-insertion machinery or a press-in ram.
Mounting plate required
INSERTA only describes how the hinge cup attaches to the cabinet door. It is not a mounting plate.
A compatible Blum CLIP cabinet-side mounting plate is required and must be purchased separately. The correct mounting-plate height and fixing method depend on the cabinet construction and required door overlay.

Frequently asked questions
Does the 70T3590.TL include soft close?
No. It does not include BLUMOTION or any other soft-close mechanism. Choose the Blum 71B3590 if integrated soft closing is required.
Is this a self-closing hinge?
No. The hinge is unsprung and does not pull the cabinet door closed. Its free-moving action makes it suitable for TIP-ON handleless doors.
Does INSERTA mean that no drilling is required?
No. INSERTA eliminates hinge-cup fixing screws, but the cabinet door must have the complete INSERTA drilling pattern: one 35mm cup hole and two 8mm fixing holes on 45mm centres.
Does INSERTA require installation machinery?
No. The INSERTA locking flap secures the hinge cup without screwdrivers or hinge-insertion machinery.
Is the TIP-ON unit included?
No. The TIP-ON ejector and magnetic catch are separate products.
Is a mounting plate included?
No. A compatible Blum CLIP cabinet-side mounting plate must be selected and purchased separately.
What is the difference between 70T3590.TL and 70T3550.TL?
Both are unsprung 110° overlay hinges. The 70T3590.TL uses tool-free INSERTA cup fixing, while the 70T3550.TL has a screw-on hinge cup.
What is the difference between 70T3590.TL and 71T3590?
The 70T3590.TL is unsprung and designed for free movement. The 71T3590 contains a closing spring that pulls the cabinet door closed. Neither version has integrated BLUMOTION.
Can the door be removed without tools?
Yes. The CLIP mechanism allows the cabinet door to be attached to or removed from a compatible mounting plate without tools.
