Guden PS08080708-48 Piano Hinge 2in X 48in Steel

Product Description

The GUDEN PS08080708-48 is a full-length steel piano hinge designed for continuous support along the full span of a door, panel, lid, or enclosure. Constructed from 1010/1019 grade steel with an uncoated finish, this hinge measures 2 inches wide and 48 inches long with a thickness of 0.075 inches. Each leaf is 1 inch wide and 48 inches in height, providing even load distribution across the entire hinge line. The 0.25-inch steel pin runs the full length of the knuckle. This hinge is installed by licensed tradespeople, industrial maintenance technicians, and experienced fabricators working with cabinetry, access panels, toolboxes, and equipment enclosures.

This piano hinge is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a continuous hinge is required for structural rigidity or high-cycle use. Common installations include cabinet doors, storage chest lids, electrical enclosure panels, work surface flaps, and custom fabricated assemblies. The full 48-inch length allows field cutting to exact measurements, making it adaptable to a wide range of project dimensions without requiring a custom-ordered length.

Key Features

• Full 48-inch continuous hinge length for even load distribution along the entire door or panel edge
• 1010/1019 grade steel construction for solid, consistent performance in light to moderate duty applications
• 0.075-inch thickness provides rigidity without excessive added weight
• 0.25-inch steel pin diameter for durable pivot action across the full hinge length
• Uncoated finish allows field painting, plating, or use as-is where appearance is not critical
• RoHS compliant materials

Compatibility

Designed as a continuous piano hinge for use with steel or wood doors, panels, lids, and enclosures requiring full-length hinge support. Field cuttable to shorter lengths as the application requires.

Installation Notes

Piano hinges are typically installed by maintenance technicians, millwork professionals, or industrial fabricators using standard drill, tap, and fastener tools. Ensure the mating surfaces are flat and properly aligned before securing the hinge to prevent binding. Always pre-drill pilot holes to avoid material distortion when fastening to thin sheet metal or wood panels. Confirm fastener sizing is appropriate for the substrate material and load requirements before final installation.
