Hinge Body -Window & Door Hardware
# Hinge Body -Window & Door Hardware
Hinge bodies for window and door hardware demand dimensional precision at the knuckle bore and leaf mounting holes, combined with cosmetically acceptable surface finish on visible faces. KastMfg produces hinge bodies in Zamak 5 zinc alloy using hot-chamber die casting, achieving bore-to-bore alignment within CT4-CT5 tolerance as-cast.
Zamak 5's higher strength and hardness versus Zamak 3 improves the wear resistance of knuckle bearing surfaces under repeated hinge operation. The smooth as-cast surface accepts nickel or chrome plating directly, producing the premium decorative finish expected in architectural hardware at competitive cost.
