Sugatsune SFTH-02-5 Torque Hinge Stainless Steel Polished

Product Description

The SUGATSUNE SFTH-02-5 is a torque hinge designed to hold doors, panels, or covers at a set position without the need for additional stays or friction hardware. It is constructed from stainless steel with a polished finish, making it suitable for applications where corrosion resistance and clean appearance are required. The hinge delivers 4.30 inch-pounds of torque and features 3 knuckles with a pin diameter of 21/64 inches. At 3/64 inches thick and 1-25/64 inches wide, it fits in tight mounting envelopes where space is limited. Installation requires access to 5 mounting holes across both leaves. Licensed tradespeople and equipment assemblers working on enclosures, control panels, and specialty door hardware are the primary installers.

This hinge is suited for light-duty positioning applications in residential and commercial settings, including electrical enclosures, HVAC access panels, cabinetry, and instrumentation housings. The door leaf height of 1.5781 inches and frame leaf height of 1-37/64 inches accommodate panels and doors with a minimum thickness of 9/16 inches. Its compact footprint makes it a practical choice for equipment where conventional stay arms or lid supports are not practical due to space constraints.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a millwright, equipment assembler, or skilled technician using standard hand tools.

Disconnect any power or pneumatic sources to the enclosure or panel before beginning work.
