Southco Introduces Free-Swinging Hinges in New Materials

Southco has extended its line of externally mounted free-swinging hinges with three new options designed for heavy-duty applications. The EH free-swinging hinge is now available in corrosion-resistant aluminum for outdoor use, a lightweight plastic version that provides optimum strength for both indoor and outdoor applications and a zinc version for indoor use.

The newest additions to the hinge series offer new solutions for a broad range of door dimensions and weights. Available in sizes up to 100 mm, the EH plastic free-swinging hinge series provides a high-strength, economical solution for multiple interior and exterior application zones. The EH-8C aluminum free-swinging hinge features corrosion-resistance, with adjustability for large panels where mounting space is limited. Together with the EH-7A zinc free-swinging hinge, these hinges deliver high strength in a compact package, lowering overall equipment costs and reducing application weight.
