Marine hinges are engineered to withstand constant exposure to moisture, salt air, and corrosive environments.

Subcategories

  • 316 Grade Stainless Steel Hinges: 316 is an austenitic stainless steel with added molybdenum to increase its corrosion resistance compared to other 300-series alloys. This type of stainless steel resists scaling at temperatures up to 1600°F.

  • Marine Door & Butt Hinges: Standard door and hatch hinges designed for doors, cabinets, and access panels on boats, typically highly corrosion-resistant.

  • Marine Strap & Wide Strap Hinges: Strap-style hinges offering broad support for heavier doors, lids, and storage compartments on boats and marine vessels.

  • Flush & Table Hinges: Hinges that sit flush with the mounting surface for an unobstructed space and smoother operation on hatches, tables, or fold-away lockers.

  • Hatch & Angle-Base Hinges: Hinges designed specifically for hatch lids, often with angle bases or special mounting surfaces.

  • Unequal Hinges: Smaller specialty hinges with unequal leaf sizes and welded pins used for unique marine doors.

  • Marine Hinge Accessories: Corrosion-resistant hardware, including hinge screws, flush lift handles, eye bolts, safety hasps, and more.

Buying Guide

  1. Environmental Exposure: Consider how often the hinge will be exposed to salt spray, standing water, or humidity. 316 grade stainless steel is the preferred choice for the most intense marine environments.

  2. Hinge Type: Butt, strap, flush, hatch, and take-apart hinges are each designed for specific marine doors, lids, and access panels.

  3. Load Capacity: Heavier doors, hatches, and compartments require hinges rated for higher weight loads and frequent use.

  4. Mounting Style: Select surface-mount or specialty mounting designs according to the door's construction and installation requirements.
