Metal eyeglass hinges, factory‑direct.
Family-run factory in Taizhou — China's eyewear manufacturing belt. We cut and machine hinges to order, budget lines to premium builds — welded, screw‑on and rivet‑on — and we match discontinued models from a photo. Send a spec or a picture; get back a quote and samples at factory-direct pricing.
Hinges only — made to your drawing
Metal temple hinges
3- and 5-barrel hinges for metal and acetate frames. Copper alloys as the workhorse, pure titanium and β-titanium for premium lines.
Screw-on & rivet-on
Mounting styles for repair work and acetate production — screw-on plates for field replacement, rivet-on for heat-staked assembly.
Photo matching
Discontinued or unmarked hinge? Send a photo beside a ruler and we identify the closest pattern we make.
OEM & custom runs
Your drawing, our tooling: custom geometry, logos on the leaf, and plating to your frame line's finish standard.
Send a photo or drawing
A phone photo next to a millimeter ruler works. Drawings, samples in the mail, or a frame model number are even better.
Match and quote
We identify the model or propose the nearest fit, then quote with tiered unit pricing — standing and repeat orders get our best rates.
Approve samples
Physical samples ship before any bulk run, with dimension sheets and pre-ship photos for your QC.
Production and shipping
Small parcels go by express courier; bulk orders by air or sea freight, packed and labeled to your spec.
Hinges are not universal. That's our advantage.
Most suppliers only sell what's on the shelf. We make to order — the full range of standard patterns, and the rest built by hand — precisely because every frame maker fits hinges differently. So when a model is discontinued, a repair lab or distributor can still source it from us.
