When you're building or repairing your BBQ smoker, tailgate, or fence, you need hardware that can handle the heat and the heavy use. These 3-inch steel bullet hinges are engineered to perform where lesser hardware fails, combining rugged construction with thoughtful details that make installation and maintenance a breeze.
Each hinge starts with a solid steel body measuring 3.15" long with a .51" diameter and .61" thickness - substantial enough for the heaviest smoker lids, truck tailgates, or farm gates. The fixed steel pin (.31" diameter) ensures your hinge won't loosen over time, while the included brass bushing provides smooth, quiet operation that won't wear down like plastic alternatives.
What sets these hinges apart is the zerk grease fitting - a small but crucial detail that lets you lubricate the hinge without disassembly. Just attach your grease gun and give it a few pumps to keep everything moving smoothly. This means less maintenance and longer life, especially important for applications exposed to smoke, weather, and frequent use.
BBQ enthusiasts love these for smoker doors and lids that open and close hundreds of times per season. Automotive shops use them for custom tailgates and utility hatches. Farmers and homeowners depend on them for gates and fences that need to withstand years of use. The weld-on design makes them incredibly versatile - simply prep your surface, position the hinge, and weld it in place for a permanent, professional installation.
Whether you're upgrading your backyard smoker or building a heavy-duty gate from scratch, these bullet hinges deliver the durability and smooth operation you need. They're the kind of hardware that makes you feel confident about your project, knowing the details have been thoughtfully engineered to last.
