Its unsprung action makes it suitable for TIP-ON push-to-open handleless doors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill a 973A6000 damper make it self-closing?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The attachment provides damping but does not add a closing spring. Choose the sprung 71T6550 when conventional self-closing soft-close operation is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes 170° mean that the door will lie flat?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. It is the hinge’s maximum opening angle. The final door position depends on the cabinet and door geometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the complete hinge installation tool-free?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The hinge cup is screwed to the door and the mounting plate requires fixing. Tool-free operation applies to clipping the hinge arm onto and off the mounting plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the mounting plate included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. This listing supplies one hinge only. A compatible Blum CLIP mounting plate must be purchased separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan the opening angle be reduced?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The optional Blum 70.6103 stop reduces the opening angle to approximately 130°.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the difference between 70T6550.TL and 71T6550?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 70T6550.TL is unsprung and free-swinging. The 71T6550 contains a closing spring and pulls the door closed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs there any additional safety guidance?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere young children can access furniture fitted with wide-angle hinges, Blum recommends using an appropriate 155° zero-protrusion hinge instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBrowse the complete \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/blum-hinges-clip-top\"\u003eBlum CLIP top hinge range\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"JULIUS BLUM UK LTD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62846503682397,"sku":"HI70T6550","price":3.38,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0968\/4100\/7453\/files\/HI70T6550.jpg?v=1784892834","url":"https:\/\/www.blum.org.uk\/products\/blum-70t6550tl-170-degree-overlay-unsprung-hinge","provider":"Hart Wholesale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
