Pivot Joint 40 with Locking Lever – for 40-Series Aluminium Profiles

The Pivot Joint 40 with Locking Lever is a high-strength, adjustable hinge connector for Aluminium slot profile 4040 with Slot 8. It allows two profiles or a profile and panel to pivot smoothly and then lock securely at the desired angle — ideal for adjustable doors, guards, folding structures, machine frames and modular assemblies.

Key Benefits

• Lockable adjustability: Precisely set and secure the angle with the integrated locking lever — perfect for repeatable positioning and quick re-adjustments.
• Wide opening range: Opening angle of approximately 192°, suitable for both open and folded configurations.
• Robust construction: Zinc die-cast body with a glass-fiber reinforced PA lever for long service life and high mechanical stability.
• Clean integration: Designed specifically for 40-series framing, ensuring neat, professional joints without bulky brackets.

System Compatibility

Designed for 40-Series aluminium profiles with Slot 8. Fully compatible with ITEM, ISB, ISP and I-Type aluminium profile systems, ensuring seamless integration with most industrial and modular frame solutions.

Typical Applications

• Adjustable guards, doors and hatches
• Folding frames and modular machine structures
• Tilting jigs, fixtures and support arms
• Positioning assemblies and adjustable enclosures

How It Works

1. Mount both halves of the pivot joint to the profile ends or slots using Slot-8 fasteners.
2. Adjust the desired angle (up to ~192°), then tighten the lever to lock it in place securely.
3. Loosen the lever for angle re-adjustment; re-tighten to fix the new position.
