Frisco Eclipse Radius Ball Bearing Hinge Grade 13
The Frisco Eclipse 102x76x3mm Ball Bearing Hinge Radius Grade 13 is a strong and dependable hinge designed for doors that require reliable performance, smooth operation and long-term durability. Manufactured from Grade 201 stainless steel, this ball bearing hinge is suitable for doors weighing up to 120kg, making it a practical choice for a wide range of residential, commercial and specification applications.
The hinge features 10mm radius corners, giving it a softer, rounded appearance that works particularly well with doors and frames designed for radius-corner hardware. Its ball bearing construction also helps provide smooth and consistent door movement, even when the door is used frequently.

It is Grade 13 rated for doors with a maximum weight of 120kg, subject to correct installation and the requirements of the complete doorset.
The hinge has also been fire tested to BS EN1634 for FD30, FD60, FD90 and FD120-minute timber doors, as well as FD240-minute steel doors. It carries CE 1121, UKCA 2812 and CF5837 Certifire certification.
