SWAGING
The forming of one or both leaves toward or beyond the center of the pin, swaging slightly increases leaf width.
BOTH LEAVES HALF-SWAGED
Both leaves are swaged approximately one-half the pin diameter with a minimum clearance between leaves when parallel.
ONE LEAF HALF-SWAGED
One leaf swaged one half the pin diameter.
ONE LEAF FULL-SWAGED
One leaf swaged equal to the pin diameter and both leaves parallel when in a closed position.
REVERSE SWAGED
One leaf swaged to simulate reverse assembly. Leaves will not close to a parallel position.
OFFSET
Forming one or both leaves away from the center of the pin. Offsetting slightly decreases leaf width.
STOP HINGE
A hinge manufactured to limit the travel of the leaves to a specified angle.
INSIDE STOP HINGE
Leaves will open from a closed position, leaves parallel to each other, to a stop angle as specified.
OUTSIDE STOP HINGE
Leaves move from an open or flat position and stop at a specified angle.
