National Marker N265363 Continuous Hinge 1.5x12 in Brass

Product Description

The NATIONAL MARKER N265363 is a bright brass-finish continuous hinge manufactured from steel, intended for light-duty hinged applications in cabinetry, tool chests, folding tables, and hobby projects. Part of the V570 series, it measures 1.5 inches wide by 12 inches long and features a 0.090-inch diameter electrofilm-coated pin that resists rust. The hinge carries a gauge of 0.042 and can be cut to any desired length without the friction pin falling out, making field sizing straightforward. Screw holes are spaced 2 inches apart. Each unit ships with a Phillips flat No. 4 x 0.5 inch screw included.

This continuous hinge is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a full-length, piano-style hinge is needed along a door, lid, or panel edge. Common install scenarios include tool chest lids, utility cabinet doors, craft project enclosures, and folding table assemblies. The bright brass finish provides a clean appearance on visible surfaces. The V570 series design is a standard catalog item used by finish carpenters, cabinetmakers, and skilled tradespeople working on fixture and enclosure projects.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation continuous hinge for tool chests, cabinets, folding tables, and hobby project enclosures requiring a 1.5 x 12 inch piano-style hinge.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by cabinetmakers, finish carpenters, or skilled tradespeople using standard hand tools. Pilot holes are recommended before driving screws to prevent wood splitting or panel deformation. When cutting the hinge to a shorter length, secure the piece in a vise and use a metal hacksaw or tin snips rated for the material gauge. Ensure the mounting surface is flat and aligned before fastening to prevent binding along the hinge line.
