KATO Hexatorq® Hinges
KATO Hexatorq torque controlling hinges now set the industry
standard for reliable, cost effective motion control. Hexatorq
hinges are innovative, high quality, metal and plastic resin hinge
assemblies that offer an unprecedented smoothness of motion. They are offered in standardized sizes to meet virtually all common
application requirements.
Conventional spring type hinges can lose their lubrication and seize
up to damage mating parts if used in high temperature environments,
or where excessive cycling increases the temperature inside the
hinge. The Hexatorq design, utilizing a modern engineered
plastic resign, requires no lubrication. In fact, in an
elevated temperature application, Hexatorq hinges experience a
predictable drop-off in torque, and will then return to preset
torque values after a minimal cool down period. This means no
damage to your expensive part!
We've done the testing for you! Our standardized range of
Hexatorq sizes configurations was determined through extensive
design and durability testing. For additional technical data
on Hexatorq hinges visit the Hexatorq Technical Data Page. By
utilizing a Hexatorq series hinge you can significantly reduce your
typical design to manufacture time cycle. Add those savings
right to your bottom line!
