Nylon/non rust versions of kitchen cabinet hinges

Any good:

Theo

Well thank you, it's food for thought. I stumbled across some boating/sailing sites, where it was implied 304 isn't good enough for these hinges etc in a salt water environment,

I may well buy a pair, and see what happens.

After 20 years mine got a bit rusty too, but I still had ten or so left over from the original kitchen build so I just replaced them... ...Try not to spill salt

So, I've learnt one thing from two months of picking at this issue. I stupidly assumed all kitchen cabinet hinges are the same dimensions, well they're not !

I'm looking for a Stainless Steel version of this Hettich Full Overlay hinge that (as an example) this UK supplier stocks:-

I contacted that UK supplier, and they were very helpful, and said they could order in from Hettich the hinges, but understandably only a minimum order of Qty 50. The same applies ordering directly of course.

I can't see any easy way, or any other supplier that has, never mind sell me, Qty 2 ?

I've found a few on ebay that might fit (Critical parameter is the 52mm pitch of the mounting screws) but they all seem to be from somewhere in China, and I can't get any vendor to tell me what that pitch actually is

Any ideas ?

Buy 50 and sell the rest on ebay.

I wanted some PCBS made up - I needed one of each of two types. The minimum order of 10 of each was WAY cheaper from China than even trying to etch ONE of my own...let alone have them made professionally.

(so if anyone wants a board with a mains power supply to drive, and 4 mains relays to be driven by, a Raspberry Pi...I've still got 9 left..the other one is controlling my central heating)

It's one idea, I might make a rapid killing if I was to include a properly marked up drawing of them with full dimensions in the listing !

I suspect a lot of people make a (small) living from buying up job slots of stuff from China and selling it on ebay.
