EX-AL™ Hinges and Ball Lock Pin

Hinges are used to swing guard panels and segments to the right or left. They are attached to the aluminum extrusion anywhere along the T-slot with button-head or socket-head cap screws and T-nuts (furnished). Standard aluminum hinges and lift-off hinges are available.

This specially designed hinge assembly is used on the light curtain swing-away mounting brackets. The assembly consists of two plates with fasteners for the top and bottom of the swing-away bracket. The top plate has a ball lock pin that holds the side guard in position. These hinges are designed to allow the side panel to move forward or backward for light curtain safety distance adjustment.
