Clearsonic H10.5 New-Style Hinge for AX12

All ClearSonic Panel systems feature a low-profile, heavy duty "mechanical lock" full-length hinge that is the best in the industry. ClearSonic Panels go through an extra step in the manufacturing process that creates a "locking groove" on the long edge of the panel. This locking groove accommodates a hard tooth on the inside of their proprietary hinge that snaps into the groove for a superior, longer lasting hold. Some use the inferior "friction-hold" hinge that uses flexible barbs and friction to hold onto the shields. Friction-hold hinge must be applied with force and will only stay in place as long as the hinge opening is smaller than the panel thickness. The problem is, plastic has a memory and over time will open up under the stress. Once the hinge opens up, it no longer will hold tight and will start to pop off more and more frequently. They know. They used friction-hold hinge until early 2000. At that point they made the decision that this style of hinge was not durable enough to be used on the industry standard ClearSonic Panels. They want their systems to perform for years, not just months.

Clearsonic H10.5 Features:

• Made of strong and durable plastic
• Full-length – our hinges run the full length of each acrylic panel. This extra coverage provides superior sound isolation compared to competitors whose hinges leave exposed seams between panels for sound to escape.
• Tooth in groove mechanical lock – the hinge tooth locks into the groove cut into each acrylic panel for superior connection and longer life, especially compared to Friction hinge.
• Low profile – allows for better aesthetics as hinge blends into the shield better.
• Flexibility – hinge bends 180 degrees in one direction and 90 degrees in the other allowing for accordion style folding. This makes it easier to ship, store, and transport, and allows for a more customized shield footprint.
