Why SS304 furniture hinge can be absorbed by magnet? (Original)

By Lucy (kav)

All this time, when customers use SS304 furniture hinge, they will have a question that Why SS304 hinge can be absorbed by magnet.

Large scale cupboard hinge factories will choose SS304 or SS201 as raw material to produce stainless steel hinge. However, some hinge factories will use inferior material instead of SS304 material to cheat customers. When choosing stainless steel hinge, customers can’t distinguish it by eyes, so they usually use a magnet to absorb the stainless steel hinge to judge whether it is made of stainless steel material or not.

As a matter of fact, it’s not correct to test whether stainless steel hinge is made of stainless steel material or not.

A hinge consists of many accessories, which are stamping by molds. Raw material is SS304, but stamping molds are iron, so iron will be left during productive process. Moreover, because accessories of hinge are made of anti-rust iron (Notice: the hinge body is made of pure SS304, but other accessories are made of anti-rust iron, because SS304 has strong hardness and is brittle, if used to produce accessories, they will be easy to crack during productive process and in using.), which also can be absorbed by magnet through stainless steel material, so if using a magnet to absorb a stainless steel hinge, it is normal that it can be absorbed by magnet. If the hinge is demagnetized, it can’t be absorbed by magnet, but many factories will don’t demagnetize their stainless steel hinge.

Only SS304 exclusive medicine can judge whether stainless steel hinge is made of SS304 material or not.

Here is a URL for reference: http://v.ku6.com/show/eesiF4B3tY_RCCoa.html?loc=tashangchuan     (Notice: This is an exclusive medicine to test SS304 and can be bought in hardware store)  Drop some exclusive medicine on hinge, if no color change of hinge, it’s made of SS304, if it turns red, it may be made of SS201 or other material.

Actually, customers can choose material of kitchen hinge according to their requirement, for example, SS304 hinge has strong rustproof capacity and normally used under moist condition, such as bathroom cabinet and kitchen cabinet, while anti-rust capacity of SS201 hinge is a little weaker, so SS304 hinge is a little expensive than SS201 hinge.

The classification and use of the cold rolled steel and the cold rolled coil

Cold-rolled steel is short for the thin cold-rolled steel which is made from ordinary carbon structural, commonly known as the cold plate. Cold plate is the steel that made up of ordinary carbon structural steel hot-rolled steel belt; the thickness is less than 4mm after further cold rolling. The cold plate has a favorable quality and high precision in size because it is made in the room temperature and would not produce scale, plus with the annealing treatment, the mechanical properties and process performance are better than hot rolled steel, in many fields, especially in home appliance manufacturing areas, has been gradually replace the hot rolled steel.

Applicable grades: Q195 Q215 Q235 Q275 SPCC (Japan brand) ST12 (Germany brand)

Symbol:

1.       Q- The code for the ordinary carbon structural point (limit), it is the first word of Chinese phonetic alphabet. 195 215 235 255 275-represent the number the cold-rolled steel can bear (limit), the unit (MPa ). The Q235 is the best in the strength, plasticity, toughness of the ordinary carbon structural, it can meet the demand of daily use, so the application range is very wide.

2.       S-for steel. P for plate. C for cold-rolled. And the fourth-regular grade C for common.

3.       ST for Steel and the number 12 stand for the ordinary cold-rolled steel.

According to the surface quality, divided it into three parts: I II III, respectively the special senior, senior and high rough surface, according to the drawing, can be divided into ZF, HF and F, due to the toughness of the steel, can deeply divided into A and B, is widely used in the automobile tractor industry.

Cold-rolled steel: with smoothly surface, excellent in processing, commonly used in the automobile refrigerator washing machine and other home appliance, it is also used in the industrial equipment and all kinds of building material. With the development of economy, the cold-rolled steel is called as the material of modern society.

The classification of cold-rolled product: hot rolled pickling, rolling hard, ordinary cold-rolled, galvanized (galvanized fingerprint resistant, hot dip galvanized), zinc, tin plate, coating, electrical steel (silicon steel ) and so on.

　　

With half overlay hinge, how to solve the collision when cupboard open?

With half overlay hinge, how to solve the collision when cupboard open?

By Kingwen Liang

This is the question from a friend online at eleven o’clock.

F(for friend ): Hello, here is the question, the two cupboards of the cabinet share the side panel, using the half overlay cabinet hinge, but when I open one of the cupboard, it will hit the other, so, how to solve the problem? The gap of the two doors is about 2 to 3mm.

Kingwen Liang: About the question, firstly we should consider whether the door is too thick (Now many people use the 25mm cupboard), if you choose the ordinary 18mm kitchen hinge, then the collision is inevitable, because the door is too thick, its corners will produce an arc. If this is the issue, I suggest you to use the hinge which is made for the thick cupboard. The holes of thick door hinge are generally 40mm, 5mm longer than regular hinge, within using the thick door hinge, can be very good to avoid the angle problem caused by the door is too thick. Secondly, if it is only the ordinary 15mm or 18mm cupboard, and the door hinge is the conventional product ,then you can try to down the adjusting screw a little bit, about 1mm or 2mm on both sides, it may can solve the problem.(You can see how to adjust on the picture above)

Note: Half overlay hinge, the so-called half-cover hinge, hinge in bending; the ordinary thickness is 9mm.

PS: I got a message below in nine thirty on 23th, September, 2008

Thank you a lot. The door is too thick indeed, and it is aluminum frame doors. I have replaced the half overlay removable hinge to the half overlay ordinary hinge, then the problem solved. Thank you very much, I often read your blog, throughout your blog , I have a better understanding of cupboard hinge, and have been interested in it, hope can be your agent in the future.

Determination of the quality and selection of cabinet

         In the market, we can see a variety of sets of cabinets, the price gap is also great, how to judge the quality of the cabinet and cons? From the detail view, judge the quality of the cabinet the following main points:

Look Edge: In the case of large manufacturers of cabinets and small workshop production of cabinets, the most important thing is to look at the cabinet edge. Large manufacturers use modern machinery and equipment, the use of high temperature and pressure Edge, Edge neat appearance after the firm, long-term use to avoid moisture damage to the cabinet, the cabinet can make more durable.

See hardware accessories (eg soft closing hinge rail): For items orderly place where it is necessary to use some metal parts (eg concealed hinges slide) to achieve the purpose, such as for corner cabinets placed rotating disk, push-pull lockers separation racks. Good cabinets are metal accessories (such as kitchen hinge rails) and the cabinet body, the perfect combination of doors, when used to open and close freely, no noise, can withstand a million times on the switch without deformation damage.

Seal Design: Countertops adding special sealing design allows easy to fall into the water table cupboard cabinets and that is a guarantee of long-term use can cabinets.

Cabinet material environmental protection is very important, mainly in used plates, countertops and sealing of the adhesive. These materials have to meet environmental requirements. Which plates need to use man-made sheet formaldehyde emission standards, and countertops to fire board and artificial stone is a better choice.

Comprehensive and detailed service is also an important condition for a good cabinet. Includes not only the pre-site survey design, sales in the careful installation, but also includes service. Such as creating user profiles, and timely visit, there are problems to solve and so on.
