Deltana HPR45 Stainless Steel Pin for 4-1/2" Solid Brass Hinges (Deltana DSB45 Series)

The HPR45 is the replacement barrel pin for Deltana's DSB45 series, the 4-1/2 inch solid brass hinges. It measures 3-7/8 inches long with a 1/4 inch diameter. If your hinge is a 4-1/2 inch Deltana solid brass hinge, this is the matching pin. Measure the old pin before ordering if it came out of something else: anything other than 1/4 inch diameter or 3-7/8 inch length is a different hinge line.

Not necessarily. If the hinge leaves and knuckles are straight and the door still hangs true, a replacement barrel pin fixes a bent or missing pin without pulling the hinge off the door or frame. The HPR45 is that pin for Deltana's 4-1/2 inch solid brass hinges, 3-7/8 inches long by 1/4 inch diameter. Replace the hinge only if the knuckles themselves are deformed or the barrel has worn oval, since a new pin will not tighten a worn knuckle.

Stainless steel, not brass. The pin is stainless through the body with a brushed stainless finish, while the DSB45 hinge leaves themselves are solid brass. So expect a visible difference in tone at the barrel if the hinge is in a polished or antique brass finish. If matching appearance matters on a front door, the brushed stainless head will read cooler than the brass around it.

Sold individually. The unit of measure on the HPR45 is each, so a door on three 4-1/2 inch hinges needs three pins ordered. Property managers restocking a maintenance shop usually pull several at a time since bent or walked-out pins are the common failure, not the hinge itself.

Residential. The HPR45 and the DSB45 solid brass hinges it serves are classed as residential hardware, so it suits entry doors, interior doors, and multi-family unit doors rather than heavy-traffic commercial openings with continuous or ball-bearing commercial hinges.

No. A barrel pin drops into the knuckles from the top regardless of whether the door is left or right hand, so the HPR45 fits either. Handing only matters on the hinge itself if it has a non-symmetrical tip or finial, and this is a plain stainless barrel pin.
