Charging Pile Detachable Concealed Cabinet Hinge

For those sourcing enclosure hinges from Yitai Lock for EV charging or energy storage projects, the Charging Pile Detachable Concealed Cabinet Hinge covers three models to suit different door sizes and installation methods. All three use a pin-and-retaining-ring mechanism for door removal, and the 304 stainless steel construction handles the outdoor and semi-outdoor environments typical of EV charging infrastructure without corrosion issues.

Product Specifications

Key dimensions and specs for each model of the hinge:

· CL132-2: Overall length 88.7mm, body 81.4mm, inner span 50mm, barrel Φ5mm, mounting plate 64.5mm wide with 3×Φ4.2mm and 2×Φ5mm countersunk holes, frame channel width 24.5mm, engagement depth >5.5mm, weight 143g

· CL132-3: Overall length 95.5mm, body 107mm tall, barrel Φ11mm, 3×Φ5.2mm mounting holes, base width 35mm, weight 169g — installed by welding

· CL130-2: Overall length 65mm, body 50mm, barrel Φ5mm, 2×Φ5mm and 2×Φ6.7mm countersunk holes, frame engagement depth 23.8mm with 13.5mm inner contact, door panel clearance 20.2mm, weight 108g — opens to 90°

All three models of the Charging Pile Detachable Concealed Cabinet Hinge use a retaining ring (E-clip) to secure the pin. Removing the E-clip allows the door to be lifted free of the frame without disturbing the mounted hinge wings.

Core Advantages

The Charging Pile Detachable Concealed Cabinet Hinge offers a few practical advantages that matter specifically in EV charging pile and energy storage cabinet builds:

· Fully concealed profile — the hinge barrel sits inside the frame channel when the door is closed, leaving no visible hardware on the enclosure exterior. This suits the clean aesthetic increasingly expected on public-facing EV charging equipment

· Detachable on all three models — door removal during factory wiring, on-site installation, or maintenance is straightforward without any tools beyond removing the E-clip

· Choice of installation method — the CL132-2 and CL130-2 are screw-mounted for enclosures that aren't welded during fabrication; the CL132-3 is welded for sheet metal builds where welding is the standard process

· 304 stainless steel throughout — handles outdoor exposure, humidity, and temperature variation without corrosion, which is a baseline requirement for EV charging infrastructure hardware

FAQ

Q1: What are the three models in this range and how do they differ?

CL132-2 (143g, 88.7mm, screw-mounted), CL132-3 (169g, 95.5mm, welded), and CL130-2 (108g, 65mm, screw-mounted). All are 304 stainless steel detachable concealed hinges — the differences are in size, weight, and installation method.

Q2: How does the detachable mechanism work?

 All three models use an E-clip retaining ring on the hinge pin. To remove the door, take off the E-clip and slide the pin out — the door lifts free without disturbing the mounted hinge wings on the frame or door panel.

Q3: Which models are screw-mounted and which are welded?

CL132-2 and CL130-2 are screw-mounted using countersunk holes. CL132-3 is installed by welding. Select based on your fabrication process.

Q4: Why is 304 stainless steel used for EV charging pile enclosures?

EV charging piles are often installed outdoors or in semi-outdoor environments with exposure to rain, humidity, and temperature variation. 304 stainless steel resists corrosion in these conditions without requiring surface coating maintenance, making it the practical material choice for long-term outdoor enclosure hardware.

Q5: Can I get product videos or photos before placing an order?

Yes — Yitai Lock can provide actual product videos, photos, and weighing videos on request before an order is placed, so you can confirm the product matches your requirements.
