Southco, Inc., a global leader in engineered access hardware solutions, has recently expanded its successful line of  ST Constant Torque Positioning Hinges with the addition of a new embedded hinge for smaller applications. The miniature ST-5A Embedded Positioning Hinge provides precise positioning of smaller doors and panels that require increased torque.

The ST-5A Embedded Positioning Hinge features a compact design that allows easy installation in thin profile applications, and eliminates the need for secondary support components to hold doors or panels in position. Southco’s ST Positioning Hinges are preset during the manufacturing process, eliminating the need for constant maintenance and readjustment, and offer effortless fingertip positioning and a tested, repeatable cycle life validated for 20k cycles of operation.

Global Product Manager Todd Schwanger adds, “The miniature ST-5A Embedded Positioning Hinge further expands our line of embedded constant torque hinging solutions, providing superior functionality and smooth operation for smaller applications where increased torque is necessary.”
