1246 and 1249 are both reversible cam-rise hinges used primarily on walk-in cooler and freezer doors. The key difference is that the
1249 is spring-assisted, providing extra closing force for heavier doors or those with significant air resistance, while the
1246 operates manually
Common Applications and Benefits
Both hinges are industry-standard components for commercial refrigeration and food service equipment.
Smooth Operation: Both models use a self-lubricating nylon cam to ensure smooth, trouble-free door operation.
Reduced Maintenance: The cam-rise action lifts the door slightly as it opens, which reduces friction and gasket wear, even on irregular floors.
Ease of Installation/Replacement: They are surface-mounted (drilled and countersunk for 1/4" flat head screws) and can be reversed manually for different door handing without disassembly.
