Hinge with a difference

The unusual CFA/F from Elesa (UK) is an external multileaf thermoplastic hinge with inbuilt 90û stop. It is suitable for small equipment housings or for access doors where the opening angle must not exceed 90û.

In many situations a 90û doorstop feature may be important to prevent a door interfering with other nearby equipment, or to prevent excessive opening in windy conditions. The system is safe and secure for operator's hands as it is a built-in function of the hinge mechanism, leaving the operator free to work on the machine or equipment.
Loading and operational specifications are given in the 'Pink' catalogue, complete with guidance formulae to establish the correct application criteria. The CFA/F itself is resistant to solvents, oil, greases and other chemical agents and is suitable for most industrial environments.
