Restyled detent hinge offers improved corrosion resistance

The popular C6 detent hinge series from Southco has been 'refreshed' with an improved design which provides increased corrosion resistance for applications requiring doors and panels to be held securely at predetermined angles, the company claims.

Constructed of robust plastic and stainless steel, the new C6 incorporates contemporary styling and enhanced functionality without sacrificing cycle life. It features redesigned snap-on covers that fully conceal mounting hardware, creating a modern, streamlined appearance which also enhances cleanability, with various detent angles and positioning torque options available to suit different application needs. The series is also available in a free-swinging style that allows a door or panel to open a full 180 degrees.

Global product manager Todd Schwanger commented: "The redesigned C6 Detent Hinge offers updated styling and improved corrosion resistance for a wide variety of applications, and eliminates labour costs associated with installing additional components to maintain consistent positioning."
