Piano Hinge

Post by Phil Dawe »

Gents,

Phil Woollard and I are looking for 10mm piano hinge at least 400mm long for the Centurion upgrade. We have sourced up to 300mm lengths from EMA Model Supplies and they have suggested it may be possible to find a supplier in Germany. Any ideas? Many Thanks In advance.

Seems to be known as Stangenscharniere over here in Germany.
May be worth a few minutes of your time checking this web-site to see if something suitable

What about this one it's about 9mm wide by 380mm. If it needs to be exactly 10x400mm then this one it too small

Didier,

Intermodel have the right size hinge but It looks like they do not deliver to the UK. When registering, their website would not offer United Kingdom as my country of residence. Very frustrating! Thank you for your help so far.
