Rittal 8701180 TS Hinges for Enclosures - 180°
Part Number: 8701180
Quick Summary
The 8701180 TS Hinges extend 180° door openings, enabling full access for TS and VX SE enclosure doors. When standard hinges limit swing to 90°, maintenance, wiring changes, and component replacement become retrofit-intensive tasks. CE certification, IP-rated protection considerations, and SIL-readiness for control panels are common benchmarks for enclosure hardware. This hinge streamlines servicing and alignment while delivering reliable operation, with a matt nickel-plated finish and die-cast zinc construction. The result is faster installations, reduced downtime, and a scalable choice that supports sheet steel doors and stainless options in automated environments.

Product description
TS 180° hinges, for TS, VX SE, door option: sheet steel or stainless steel, matt nickel-plated
180° door opening increases service access and reduces maintenance time, translating to lower downtime on TS and VX SE enclosures. This enables faster cable routing and component replacement in tight cabinet spaces, especially when doors must clear adjacent equipment. Compatible with sheet steel doors and common TS enclosure variants, installation is straightforward with the included assembly parts. Die-cast zinc construction paired with a matt nickel-plated finish delivers durability and corrosion resistance in demanding industrial environments, reducing replacement cycles and maintenance costs. The pack design—4 hinges per pack, 0.924 kg per pack—facilitates bulk procurement and consistent stock management for projects and maintenance cycles. TS compatibility ensures a smooth integration with TS-type enclosures and VX variants, while the supplied assembly parts simplify on-site installation and reduce the need for special tooling. A note highlights that enclosure protection levels may be reduced with the hinge installation, so planning for protective measures is recommended. Industry-tested, this hardware aligns with common ETIM/ECLASS classifications and complements related Rittal cabinet accessories, supporting scalable, repeatable installations that improve uptime and workspace ergonomics.
