PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Blum 70T9650.TL CLIP top 95° Thick-Door Half-Overlay TIP-ON Hinge – Onyx Black
The Blum 70T9650.TL CLIP top hinge is an unsprung, free-moving concealed hinge for thick or profiled cabinet doors in a dual or half-overlay application. Its Onyx Black finish complements dark cabinetry and handleless furniture designs.
This hinge has no closing spring and no integrated BLUMOTION. Its free-moving action makes it particularly suitable for handleless doors operated by a compatible Blum TIP-ON unit.
Designed for TIP-ON handleless doors
Unlike a conventional sprung hinge, the 70T9650.TL does not pull the cabinet door closed. This allows a suitable TIP-ON ejector to push the door open without working against the hinge spring.
A compatible TIP-ON door unit with magnet is required to create a complete push-to-open installation. The TIP-ON mechanism, magnet and mounting plate are not included with the hinge.
This product should not be described as a soft-close hinge. For integrated soft closing, choose the corresponding Blum 71B9650 CLIP top BLUMOTION hinge.
Half-overlay application
A half-overlay hinge is generally used where two cabinet doors share the same central cabinet partition. Each closed door covers approximately half of the cabinet side.
The final overlay depends on the door thickness, hinge-cup drilling distance, mounting-plate height and hinge adjustment.
Suitable for thick and profiled doors
The specialised 95° hinge geometry provides clearance for thick doors and doors with moulded, rebated or profiled edges. Blum provides planning information for front thicknesses up to 32mm.
The required minimum gap increases with the thickness and edge profile of the door. A trial installation is therefore recommended before drilling every door in a production run.
Screw-on hinge-cup fixing
The hinge has a traditional screw-on hinge cup for secure mechanical attachment to the back of the cabinet door.
Screw-on describes how the hinge cup is fixed to the door. It does not describe the separate cabinet-side mounting plate, which must be selected and purchased separately.

Frequently asked questions
What does unsprung mean?
An unsprung hinge has no closing spring and does not pull the cabinet door closed. The door can move freely, making the hinge suitable for TIP-ON push-to-open applications.
Does this hinge include soft close?
No. The 70T9650.TL does not include BLUMOTION and should not be described as a soft-close hinge.
Do I need a TIP-ON unit?
Yes, if the hinge is being used for a push-to-open handleless door. Select a suitable Blum TIP-ON door unit with magnet separately.
What is a half-overlay hinge?
A half-overlay hinge is generally used where two doors share one central cabinet partition. Each door covers approximately half of the cabinet side.
Is it suitable for thick cabinet doors?
Yes. It is designed for thick and profiled doors. Blum provides planning information for doors up to 32mm thick, subject to the required drilling and clearance calculations.
Does screw-on refer to the mounting plate?
No. Screw-on describes how the hinge cup is attached to the cabinet door. The cabinet-side mounting plate is a separate component.
Is the mounting plate included?
No. A compatible Blum CLIP mounting plate must be selected and purchased separately.
Which version should I choose for integrated soft close?
Choose the Blum 71B9650 CLIP top BLUMOTION half-overlay screw-on hinge if integrated soft closing is required.
