Ball Bearing Design

Ball bearing hinges are designed to reduce friction between the hinge knuckles as the door opens and closes.

Benefits include:

• Smoother door operation

• Reduced hinge wear

• Better performance under frequent use

• Quieter operation

• Longer service life compared with basic plain-bearing hinges in demanding applications

This makes the Vector 4.5" x 4.0" hinge a strong choice for commercial openings that experience regular daily traffic.

NRP – Non-Removable Pin

The Non-Removable Pin provides additional security by preventing the hinge pin from being easily removed when the door is closed.

NRP hinges are especially useful on:

• Exterior doors

• Out-swinging doors

• Secure entrances

• Service doors

• Utility rooms

• Commercial openings where hinge barrels are accessible from the unsecured side

The NRP feature helps reduce the risk of hinge-pin tampering.

1/4" Radius Corners

This hinge features:

1/4" Radius Corners

The rounded corner configuration is designed to fit compatible door and frame preparations without requiring square-corner mortising.

Always compare the existing hinge corner radius when replacing installed hardware.
