PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Blum 70T9590BTL CLIP top 95° Unsprung Overlay Hinge
The Blum 70T9590BTL is a 95° overlay concealed hinge for thick cabinet doors and doors with pronounced profiles. Its unsprung, free-swinging action makes it particularly suitable for handleless doors operated by a compatible Blum TIP-ON push-to-open unit.
The Onyx Black finish coordinates with dark cabinet interiors and fronts. Blum’s INSERTA hinge-cup fixing allows fast, tool-free installation into a correctly prepared door drilling pattern, while the CLIP connection permits tool-free attachment and removal of the door from a compatible mounting plate.

Planning and installation
Door thickness, door profile, cup drilling distance, required overlay and mounting-plate height must be planned together. Although this hinge accommodates thick and profiled fronts, suitability depends on the door geometry and drilling position. Check Blum planning information or trial-fit the application before drilling finished doors.
INSERTA requires a 35mm cup hole plus two correctly positioned 8mm fixing holes. Once the drilling pattern is prepared, the INSERTA mechanism locks the hinge cup into the door without separate fixing screws.
A compatible Blum CLIP mounting plate is required and sold separately. The plate height must be selected according to the required overlay and cabinet construction.

Frequently asked questions
What type of door is the 70T9590BTL designed for?
It is an overlay hinge for thick wooden doors and doors with pronounced edge profiles. The door geometry and drilling position must be checked using Blum planning information.
Is this hinge sprung?
No. It is unsprung and free swinging, so it does not pull the cabinet door closed.
Does it include BLUMOTION soft close?
No. The 70T9590BTL does not contain BLUMOTION and must not be described as a soft-close hinge.
What is the benefit of an unsprung hinge?
An unsprung hinge allows a door to move freely, making it suitable for handleless push-to-open applications using a compatible TIP-ON unit.
Is TIP-ON included?
No. The appropriate TIP-ON unit must be selected and ordered separately according to the door and application.
What does INSERTA mean?
INSERTA is Blum’s tool-free hinge-cup fixing system. It secures the hinge cup in a prepared 35mm cup hole with two 8mm fixing holes.
Does INSERTA refer to the mounting plate?
No. INSERTA refers only to how the hinge cup fixes into the door. This hinge clips onto a separate compatible Blum CLIP mounting plate.
Is a mounting plate included?
No. This listing contains one hinge only. The mounting plate, TIP-ON unit, cover caps and drilling tools are sold separately.
Can I mix this hinge with CLIP top BLUMOTION hinges?
No. Blum advises against combining CLIP top BLUMOTION and standard CLIP top hinges on the same door.
