Introducing the New Line of Plastic Hinges
Why Choose Our New Plastic Hinges?
- Low Cost - Nylon Plastic hinges are less expensive than comparable metal hinges.
- Corrosion Resistant - Nylon 6 Plastic leaves with 302 stainless steel pins are corrosion resistant. They are non-conductive and have no galvanic reactions.
- Lightweight - The nylon 6 plastic material is light and strong, like more expensive aluminum metal hinges, making them great for applications like marine, automotive and aerospace industries where fuel efficiency and weight are inportant.
- Attractive - the black surface has a fine pebbled finish that looks trim and neat.
- Smooth action - The nylon bearing surfaces offer low friction with no need for lubrication.
Guden is excited to announce the introduction of our new Plastic Butt Hinges. The lightweight, low cost, and corrosion resistant nylon 6 plastic hinges are a great choice especially for marine and other transportation applications. Our plastic hinges come in a wide variety of styles, shapes and sizes.

Are nylon hinges strong enough for my metal hinge application?
For additional corrosion free options please see our stainless steel butt hinges.
Are nylon hinges strong enough for my metal hinge application?
Probably, but your own testing in your application is crucial.
A rough estimate is that the PLAS031 and PLAS032 butt hinges are comparable to 0.075 thick metal hinges and the other decorative shapes are comparable to 0.060 thick metal hinges.
It all depends on the loads in your application. Many applications have very light loads, and nylon hinge is plenty strong enough. Only your testing can tell.
Of course, Nylon 6 is not as stiff as metal, and therefore will not work well for heavy loads combined with close tolerances.
Nylon is durable, attractive, silent, corrosion free and maybe strong enough for your application. Test some samples today!
