Hinges and Hardware 101 - Corrosion resistance

Corrosion resistance is a concern for many hinge applications and many will opt for stainless steel or aluminum materials as they will resist rust adequately in most situations. Another option is plastic. Hinges made of plastic nylon resist corrosion and are also lightweight, non-conductive and decorative. Of course they aren't as strong and sturdy as metal, but they can support many medium and light duty applications. Check out all the standard plastic hinge sizes Guden has to offer HERE
