ISI/BIS certification is obligatory for Parliament hinges, a crucial norm in the construction and hardware sectors according to IS 362:1991. This ensures that these pivotal components satisfy rigorous quality and safety standards. Parliament hinges, recognized for their wide-throw design featuring cut-out sections at the top and bottom, are essential for the functionality and longevity of doors, windows, cabinets, and other fixtures. By aligning with IS 362:1991, manufacturers ensure that their hinges meet elevated benchmarks for material, construction, finish, marking, and packaging.
IS 362:1991 categorizes parliament hinges into three classifications: cast, pressed, and fabricated. Type 1 hinges are crafted from cast brass, Type 2 from mild steel or aluminum alloy, and Type 3 from extruded aluminum alloy. The standard mandates that the edges of the hinge knuckles remain straight and perpendicular to the flap, ensuring seamless and accurate movement without any slack or abrupt movements. Moreover, Type 1 and Type 3 hinges should incorporate washers composed of nylon, plastic, or other appropriate materials to enhance performance and lifespan.
