Value Collection E6-10-301-20 Adjustable Friction Hinge

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION E6-10-301-20 is an adjustable friction hinge constructed from acetal with a black finish. It provides controlled rotational resistance, allowing panels, covers, or enclosure doors to hold position at any angle without additional hardware. The hinge measures 1-29/64 inches in overall width and 1-3/32 inches in thickness, with a frame leaf height of 15/64 inches and a single knuckle design. Rated at 400 pounds radial tensile strength and 200 pounds axial strength, this hinge is suited for light-to-medium duty industrial and commercial applications. It is typically installed by maintenance technicians, equipment assemblers, or enclosure fabricators working on panel and access door assemblies.

This hinge is used in applications where a door, panel, or cover must remain open at a set position without a latch or prop rod. Common install scenarios include electronic enclosures, instrument panels, machine guards, and access covers in both commercial and light industrial settings. The acetal construction resists moisture and corrosion, making it appropriate for environments where metal hardware is undesirable. Four mounting holes are provided for secure fastening to both the frame and the moving leaf.

Key Features

• Adjustable friction design holds panels at any open position without additional support hardware
• Acetal construction offers corrosion resistance and low moisture absorption
• Rated 400 pounds radial tensile strength and 200 pounds axial strength
• Single knuckle configuration with 5/16 inch pin diameter
• Four mounting holes for stable attachment to frame and door leaf
• Black finish for a clean, consistent appearance on enclosures and panels

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation friction hinge for light-to-medium duty panels, enclosure doors, and access covers requiring position-hold capability without supplemental hardware.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by maintenance technicians or equipment fabricators using standard hand tools. Power down or de-energize any enclosure or panel before servicing the hinge or its mounting hardware. Ensure fasteners are appropriate for the mating material to avoid stripping the acetal body. Friction torque is factory-set and should not be altered by over-tightening mounting hardware.
