Reinforced Stainless Steel Hinge 41.8x39.6 mm (AISI 316), Flush Mount

This reinforced stainless steel hinge measuring 41.8x39.6 mm is engineered to withstand loads beyond the capacity of standard hinges. With a material thickness of 4 mm, it offers significantly greater strength and durability, which is crucial for components like engine compartment covers, large storage hatches, or other frequently opened areas that bear weight or vibrations.

Crafted from premium AISI 316 stainless steel, the hinge ensures resistance to rust and wear. The construction is a “flush mount” style – the screws are covered by a top plate, which not only provides a smooth exterior look but also adds extra strength to the joint. This is a heavy-duty solution for marine hardware where standard hinges would fail prematurely.

• Use & Recommendations: Specially developed for engine bay hatches, generator or battery compartment lids that are heavier and require a dependable hinge
• Suitable for medium to larger boats (e.g., 6–9 m) where hatches are opened frequently and must withstand impact and vibration while underway
• Often used in pairs – install two (or more as needed) of these reinforced hinges on a single lid to ensure even support and a backup in case one fails
• Despite its relatively compact size, the reinforced build guarantees a long life without sagging or bending; however, it’s advisable to periodically check screw tightness and hinge condition during your boat’s annual maintenance
