Collection: Carbon Fiber Stock Hinges

Elevate Your Project with the High-tech Carbon Fiber Hinge

Let’s face it. Hinges don’t get a lot of attention. Much like the invention of the wheel, we’ve come to rely on hinges so much that we take them and their capabilities for granted. When was the last time you opened and closed a door and marveled at the ability to do so because of the simple hinge?

Well, a new hinge design has come to the scene that is sure to make you take notice.

Our carbon fiber hinge is an industry-first. Ultra-thin, super light, and extremely durable, they are suitable for a wide range of applications. They are constructed of carbon fiber leaves, with a bendable Kevlar flex unit making them stronger than steel. Despite this impenetrable strength, these commercial hinges are tractable so they can readily bend and move as you need them to. The Kevlar is then coated with a 3M UV-resistant product for added protection and durability.

Each continuous carbon fiber hinge can withstand up to 330 lbs. (150 kg) or more and is over 2 inches (50 mm) in length. These joints have been tested at over 1 million cycles with no degradation to the hinge itself so you know it will last a long time. For robust applications, the addition of multiple Kevlar layers is possible for additional strength (up to 5 layers). Fiberglass leaf reinforcements can also be added to the hinge to support heavier objects.

The Carbon Fiber Hinge Is Suitable for Residential and Commercial Uses

It goes without saying that the carbon fiber hinge design and construction is the most state-of-the-art model available on the market. Patented and manufactured by DuPont, Kevlar is a heat-resistant synthetic fiber that for all intents and purposes functions like a strong yet flexible metal. When we say strong, we mean body armor strong as it is used by military units and police forces to protect against gunfire. Though a carbon fiber hinge actually does not contain any metal, it looks, feels, and functions as if it does. This is because a liquid chemical agent called urethane is inserted into the spaces of a porous solid, which alters the properties of the material itself making it as strong as metal.

A carbon fiber hinge can be used for a range of purposes though they are often used in an industrial capacity. Aircraft, military vehicles, large ships, and other carriers may rely on these hinges. Airplanes for instance require components with a lightweight construction so as not to weigh down the plane. While being lightweight and thin, these components must also be able to withstand heavy doors and hatches. Furthermore, these opening and closing components must enable a tight seal so as not to impede the operation of the aircraft. These synthetic, metal-like hinges meet the criteria.

More than used as commercial hinges, these parts have a range of residential uses as well. Because they are pliable yet strong, they can go where an ordinary hinge dares not. These Kevlar hinges can be used for doors, hatches, and windows, particularly in areas that are hard to access or unusual or non-standard in shape.

In addition each carbon fiber hinge has a range of simple mounting or installation options. Adhesives, mechanical fasteners, Very High Bonding (VHB) tapes, or other bonding agents enable the specialty hinge to adhere directly onto the application.

Whether you are seeking a carbon fiber hinge for residential or commercial use, we offer a handful of different varieties. All hinges have a continuous style and measure 1000 mm in length though you can select different thicknesses and widths. Each hinge has a woven pattern appearance on the exterior. Carefully review the complete item spec sheet before making your purchase.
