Sea-Dog Nylon Butt Hinge 202580-1, Black, 1-1/2 x 1-3/8 Inch, Stainless Steel Pin
The Sea-Dog 202580-1 is a butt hinge built for marine cabinet doors, hatches, and lockers where a durable, corrosion-resistant hinge is needed. It consists of two rectangular leaves that attach to the abutting surfaces of a door and door jamb, joined together by a hinge pin, and is designed to be mortised or recessed into both surfaces for a flush fit. The leaves are injection molded from UV-resistant fiberglass reinforced nylon, so they will not rust like an all-metal hinge, while the hinge pin itself is stainless steel for added strength and corrosion resistance at the wear point. This construction keeps the hinge lightweight while standing up to sun and saltwater exposure over time.
The hinge measures 1-1/2 inches long by 1-3/8 inches wide, with each leaf 3/4 inch wide and a 3/16 inch diameter pin, and it is finished in black to blend with dark cabinetry and trim. It installs with four #8 flat head fasteners, which are not included, so have matching screws on hand before installation. This hinge is sold individually; a matching white version is available under a separate part number for buyers who need a lighter finish.
