Norton Rixson 3/4" Offset Heavy Duty Top Pivot with Needle Bearings
The Norton Rixson H180-626 is a heavy-duty, offset top pivot designed for commercial doors that use 3/4" offset pivot sets or floor closers. By stabilizing the door at the head while the bottom pivot or floor closer carries the weight, the H180 delivers buttery-smooth swing, long service life, and tight alignment—even on high-traffic openings. Its robust, architecturally finished components are built for hospitals, schools, offices, and public buildings where reliability and clean aesthetics matter.
