PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Blum 70M2580.TL CLIP 100° Overlay TIP-ON Knock-In Hinge

The Blum 70M2580.TL is an unsprung CLIP concealed hinge for full-overlay handleless cabinet doors. Its free-moving action is designed for use with a suitable Blum TIP-ON push-to-open unit.

The hinge opens to 100° and uses a shallow knock-in cup requiring a minimum drilling depth of only 10.5mm. This makes it useful where cup depth is restricted, subject to the door material and Blum’s planning requirements.

Important: this hinge has no closing spring and no soft-close damper. It is designed for TIP-ON push-to-open operation and should not be described as BLUMOTION compatible.

Full-overlay cabinet application

The straight hinge arm is designed for full-overlay cabinet doors, where the closed front covers most of the cabinet side panel. The final overlay depends on the mounting-plate height, cup-drilling distance and cabinet construction.

The hinge provides a 100° opening angle, making it suitable for standard kitchen, bedroom and fitted-furniture cabinets where a controlled opening angle is preferred.

Designed for handleless TIP-ON doors

The .TL version has free hinge movement without a closing spring. Pressing the door activates a compatible TIP-ON unit, which releases and pushes the front open far enough to be grasped.

The TIP-ON unit, catch or magnet and any required adapter must be selected for the cabinet construction and ordered separately.

Knock-in cup installation

The hinge has pre-mounted dowels that are mechanically pressed into accurately prepared fixing holes. Installation requires a 35mm cup bore together with two 8mm dowel holes positioned on 45mm centres.

Knock-in installation is not tool-free. The hinge should be fitted using suitable Blum insertion equipment or a controlled workshop press to avoid damaging the hinge cup or cabinet door.

This fixing method should not be confused with INSERTA, which uses an integrated locking mechanism for tool-free cup installation.

CLIP fitting and adjustment

Once the cup is installed, the hinge arm clips onto a compatible Blum mounting plate without tools. The door can therefore be attached or removed without undoing the mounting-plate screws.

Three-dimensional adjustment allows the door position and cabinet gaps to be aligned after installation.

Compatible parts and alternative closing action

Select a suitable push-to-open mechanism from the Blum TIP-ON for doors collection.

A compatible Blum CLIP mounting plate is also required and must be ordered separately.

For a sprung, conventionally self-closing version with the same 100° overlay application and knock-in cup, choose the Blum 71M2580 hinge.

If controlled soft closing is required, use the sprung 71M2580 hinge with the appropriate Blum 973A BLUMOTION device.

Frequently asked questions

What does the TL suffix mean?
