PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Blum 70T7550.TL CLIP top 155° Zero-Protrusion Unsprung Hinge
The Blum 70T7550.TL is a wide-angle concealed hinge for full-overlay cabinet doors. Its 155° opening angle and zero-protrusion geometry move the open door clear of the cabinet opening, making it particularly useful for cabinets containing internal drawers or pull-out shelves.
This hinge is unsprung and provides free-swing movement. It does not pull the door closed and does not contain integrated BLUMOTION. This makes it suitable for correctly planned handleless furniture using a compatible Blum TIP-ON push-to-open device.
The 35mm steel hinge cup is secured to the door using screws. The hinge arm then connects to a compatible Blum CLIP mounting plate, allowing the door to be attached or removed without tools.
Supplied as one hinge. The mounting plate, TIP-ON device, fixing screws and optional opening-angle restrictor are sold separately.
Why use a zero-protrusion hinge?
With a conventional hinge, part of the open door may remain in front of the cabinet opening and obstruct an internal drawer or pull-out shelf. The Blum zero-protrusion hinge moves a correctly planned overlay door clear of this path, allowing interior pull-outs to open without striking the door.
Cabinet dimensions, door thickness, overlay and mounting-plate selection must still be planned correctly. A trial installation is recommended before manufacturing multiple cabinets.

Planning guidance
Zero-protrusion performance depends on the door thickness, drilling distance, overlay, mounting-plate height and cabinet construction. Check the complete application when internal drawers or shelves must pass through the cabinet opening.
A trial application is also recommended where the cabinet stands beside a wall or neighbouring front, as a 155° door requires sufficient surrounding clearance.
The opening angle can be restricted using Blum 70T7553 for approximately 110° or 70T7553.09 for approximately 92° where the full opening movement is not required.

Frequently asked questions
What does zero protrusion mean?
It means a correctly planned overlay door moves clear of the cabinet opening when opened, allowing internal drawers or pull-out shelves to pass without striking the door.
Does this hinge have a closing spring?
No. The 70T7550.TL is unsprung and moves freely without pulling the door closed.
Is it suitable for TIP-ON push-to-open doors?
Yes. Its unsprung operation makes it suitable for a correctly selected and positioned Blum TIP-ON device.
Does it include BLUMOTION soft close?
No. This hinge has neither an internal closing spring nor integrated BLUMOTION.
Is the mounting plate included?
No. Select and purchase the appropriate Blum CLIP mounting plate separately.
What does screw-on mean?
It means the 35mm hinge cup is secured to the back of the door using screws. The hinge arm still clips onto the cabinet mounting plate without tools.
Can the opening angle be reduced?
Yes. Blum offers separate restrictors that reduce the opening movement to approximately 110° or 92°.
Is this suitable for inset doors?
No. This part is the overlay version. Blum uses the dual-application hinge with a correctly selected 9mm mounting plate for planned inset applications.
