10 by 64 by3 mm steel hinges

 10 x 64 x 3 mm steel hinge.

The Linum 10 x 64 x 3 mm steel hinge is a precision-engineered, heavy-duty lift-off hinge. It is designed for demanding commercial and industrial applications.

When we refer to this 10 x 64 x 3 mm steel hinge, the dimensions carry specific meaning. The 10 denotes the substantial 10mm stainless steel axle pin diameter. The 64 indicates the 64mm hinge width when fully open.

The 3 represents the robust 3mm leaf thickness. This hinge is manufactured from high-grade AISI 304 stainless steel. It offers exceptional corrosion resistance and load-bearing capacity for heavy doors.

It is ideal for food processing plants, commercial kitchens, marine environments, and high-traffic industrial settings. Supplied as a pair with a removable pin design, it allows for easy door installation, removal, and maintenance.

This is achieved without disturbing the frame fixation.

Understanding the 10 x 64 x 3 mm Naming Convention

A frequent point of confusion among buyers is the dimensional format of this hinge. Unlike standard butt hinges where the first dimension is the leaf length, this hinge uses an industry-standard format for lift-off hinges.

The format is Axle Diameter by Hinge Width by Leaf Thickness. The actual leaf length of this hinge is 120mm. This is the standard mating dimension for a 64mm wide industrial hinge.

This 10 by 64 by3 mm steel hinges provides a full 180-degree opening angle. It features precision-machined mating surfaces to ensure absolutely no play or wobble when engaged.

Always verify that your door and frame recesses accommodate the 120mm length of this hinge.

Why Choose a 10mm Axle Hinge?

A common question concerns the significance of the 10mm axle diameter. Standard residential hinges typically use 4mm to 6mm pins.

The 10 by 64 by3 mm steel hinges substantial 10mm axle in this hinge provides approximately four times the shear strength of a standard 5mm pin hinge. This hinge is specifically engineered for doors weighing between 40kg and 80kg per pair.

10 by 64 by3 mm steel hinges is the preferred choice for walk-in coolers, industrial ovens, heavy timber doors, and stainless steel cladding applications. The 10mm axle is manufactured from solid ground stainless steel bar stock.

This 10 by 64 by3 mm steel hinges ensures decades of reliable operation without wear or deformation.

Corrosion Resistance and Material Quality

Prospective buyers frequently ask about the suitability of this hinge for harsh environments. This 10 by 64 by3 mm steel hinges is fabricated from AISI 304 stainless steel with an 18/10 chromium-nickel composition.

This grade offers superior resistance to rust, oxidation, and chemical corrosion. 10 by 64 by3 mm steel hinges is superior compared to standard 430 series stainless or zinc-plated mild steel.

The 10 by 64 by3 mm steel hinges features a brushed satin finish that is easy to clean. 10 by 64 by3 mm steel hinges maintains its appearance in wet, salty, or acidic environments.

Unlike painted or coated hinges, the corrosion resistance is inherent throughout the entire material thickness. Scratches and wear will not compromise its protection.

Removable Pin Design for Easy Installation

Many installers wonder about the practical benefits of the lift-off design in this hinge. Each hinge in the pair consists of two leaves joined by a precision 10mm stainless steel pin.

The 10 by 64 by3 mm steel hinges pin is fully removable. This allows the door to be lifted off the frame completely.

This hinge design is invaluable during installation, renovation, or equipment servicing. Doors can be removed in seconds and rehung without realigning screw holes.

The hinge features a small grease nipple aperture for periodic lubrication. This ensures smooth operation and prevents seizing in high-humidity environments.

The 10 by 64 by3 mm steel hinges is retained by friction fit and a slight countersink. No tools are required for removal.

Load Capacity and Screw Fixing

The 3mm leaf thickness of this hinge provides exceptional screw-holding power. Each leaf features countersunk holes accepting M5 or gauge 10 wood screws.

Screws are not included, as industrial applications require project-specific fasteners. The hinge is rated for doors up to 80kg when using three hinges.

10 by 64 by3 mm steel hinges is rated for doors up to 60kg when using two hinges. For maximum stability, we recommend installing this hinge with stainless steel fasteners.

The fasteners should match the hinge material to prevent galvanic corrosion. The wide 64mm footprint distributes door weight across a broader frame area.

This reduces stress on masonry or timber fixings.
