US source for SS hinges

witzgall · 21-07-2008, 19:01

Our propne locker has hinges with broken pins. They are about 1/4 wide on each mounting side, and ~2 inches long. I have not been able to find anything this thin on the mounting, it is esentiall just enough for the screw holes. Any suggestions on where to find?

Have you tried Perko, AFI or some of the other name brand marine hardware companies? If you are looking for something made in the USA then lots of luck, as there are hardly any left.

Does not have to be made in the US, just available in the US. Perko does not seem to make these. I'll lookup AFI.

Thanks,
Chris
