Emtek Select Knurled Hinge Tips (4 tips per set)

The Emtek Select knurled hinge tips are offered for 3-1/2 x 3-1/2 inch and 4 x 4 inch hinges in both residential duty and heavy duty plain or ball bearing, plus a version for 4-1/2 x 4-1/2 or 5 x 5 inch heavy duty plain or ball bearing hinges. Pick the option that matches both the leaf size and the duty of the hinge already hung on the door, since a residential duty hinge and a heavy duty hinge of the same size take different tips.

Four tips per set. Each hinge takes a tip at the top and the bottom of the pin barrel, so one set finishes two hinges. A standard interior door hung on three hinges needs two sets, which leaves two spare tips.

Ten finishes: Flat Black (US19), French Antique (US7), Oil Rubbed Bronze (US10B), Pewter (US15A), Polished Brass Lifetime (US3), Polished Chrome (US26), Polished Nickel (US14), Satin Brass (US4), Satin Nickel (US15), and Unlacquered Brass (US3NL). Those are the same US finish codes Emtek uses across its knobsets and leversets, so matching by code is the reliable way to keep the hinges consistent with the door trim on the same opening.

Decorative. The knurled tips are replacement parts that cap the ends of the hinge pin barrel to dress up an existing hinge. They do not change the hinge's load capacity, swing, or bearing type, and they are not a hinge on their own. If the hinge itself is worn or sagging, you need a replacement hinge, not tips.

Emtek lists the Select knurled tips as residential. They will physically go on heavy duty plain or ball bearing hinges in the sizes offered, including 4-1/2 x 4-1/2 and 5 x 5, so they suit high-end multi-family and hospitality interiors. For a rated opening or a facility running to a commercial hardware spec, the hinge and its trim need to come from the commercial line the spec calls out.

They belong to the Emtek SELECT series, styled contemporary under Emtek's American Classic theme, and share the US finish codes used across Emtek door trim. That is what makes them workable for a fleet: order the same finish code on every opening and the hinges read as one set with the knobsets and leversets. Count two hinges per set of tips when working out quantities.

Emtek carries the knurled hinge tips as model 9725X, where the suffix resolves to the finish and hinge size you order. Quote the model plus the finish code and the hinge size and duty when placing the order, since the same model number spans all ten finishes and five hinge fitments.

Up to 1-3/4 inches, which covers standard 1-3/8 inch interior doors and 1-3/4 inch entry and solid core doors. Door thickness only bears on the hinge itself, though; the tips cap the pin barrel, so once the hinge fits the door the tips fit the hinge.
