National Marker N148304 Continuous Hinge 1.5x48 in Brass

Product Description

The NATIONAL MARKER N148304 is a full-length continuous hinge built from steel with a bright brass finish, designed for light-duty joinery applications in residential and commercial settings. Part of the V570 series, this piano-style hinge measures 1.5 inches wide by 48 inches long and can be field-cut to any required length without the friction pin falling out. The electrofilm-coated pin measures .090 inch in diameter and is treated to resist rust. At a gauge of .042, the hinge offers consistent strength across its full span. Installation hardware is included. Woodworkers, cabinetmakers, and general tradespeople are the typical installers.

This hinge is suited for tool chests, storage cabinets, folding tables, and hobby or craft project enclosures. Because it runs the full length of the mating panels, it distributes load evenly and reduces stress concentration at individual screw points. Screw holes are spaced 2 inches apart along the full length of the leaf, allowing straightforward fastening into wood or sheet-metal substrates. The hinge ships with Phillips flat No. 4 x .5 inch screws to support immediate installation.

Key Features

• Full 48-inch continuous hinge length — field-cuttable to any shorter dimension
• Friction pin retained after cutting — no loose pin or reassembly required
• Electrofilm-coated .090-inch diameter pin for rust resistance
• Bright brass finish on .042-gauge steel construction
• Screw holes spaced 2 inches apart for consistent fastening pattern
• Includes Phillips flat No. 4 x .5 inch mounting screws

Compatibility

Designed for use on tool chests, cabinets, folding tables, and hobby or craft project enclosures where a continuous piano-style hinge is appropriate. Compatible with wood and similar substrates accepting No. 4 screws.

Installation Notes

Install with standard Phillips-head screwdrivers or a drill driver set to low torque to avoid stripping the No. 4 screw holes. When cutting the hinge to a shorter length, use a hacksaw or metal shear and deburr the cut end before mounting. Verify that the substrate thickness is sufficient to accept the included fasteners without breakthrough. No specialized trade license is required, but cabinet and millwork applications should follow applicable local building or shop-safety standards.
