Gordon Glass® Shower Door Stainless Steel Hinge Pin 5/16″ Dia. and Washer for Continuous Hinge Framed Shower Enclosure

Description

Product Overview

The Gordon Glass® Shower Door Stainless Steel Hinge Pin is engineered to meet the demanding requirements of modern bathroom fixtures. Measuring 5/16 inch in diameter, each pin is forged from high‑grade stainless steel that resists rust, corrosion, and the constant exposure to moisture typical in shower environments. The pin is supplied as a two‑piece set, including a matching washer that distributes load evenly across the hinge, reducing wear and extending the lifespan of the entire door assembly. With a face‑mount design, installation is straightforward: the pin slides through the continuous hinge barrel, and the washer secures it in place, creating a seamless pivot point that allows the door to glide open and closed with minimal effort. The product is unfinished, giving installers the flexibility to apply any finish or coating that matches the surrounding hardware, while the stainless steel core guarantees structural integrity and a professional appearance.

Usage

This hinge pin is ideal for both residential and commercial shower enclosures that employ continuous hinge systems. Whether you are upgrading an existing bathroom, outfitting a new construction, or performing routine maintenance on a high‑traffic facility, the pin provides a dependable solution for framed shower doors. Its robust construction makes it suitable for a variety of mounting surfaces, including steel, aluminum, and coated metal frames. The pin’s 5/16 inch diameter is a common size for many shower door manufacturers, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of door panels and hinge configurations. Installers and DIY enthusiasts alike will appreciate the ease of replacement: simply remove the old pin, insert the new stainless steel pin and washer, and re‑secure the hinge. The result is a door that operates smoothly, reduces noise, and maintains a tight seal against water leakage.
