BEST FBB212 Steel Ball Bearing Heavy Weight Pivot Reinforced Hinge for Square Edge Doors

Heavy-Duty Pivot Reinforced Hinge Solution for Commercial Applications

The BEST FBB212 combines a pivot and butt hinge in one compact interlocked unit, specifically engineered for square edge doors subject to jarring or abusive handling. This steel construction hinge features ball bearing operation for smooth door movement and heavy weight gauges that increase bearing surface area for maximum friction reduction. The pivot reinforced design transfers stresses to the top hinge while interlocked corners prevent sidewise motion, making it ideal for commercial and industrial applications requiring robust hinge performance.
