BIS Certification for Parliament hinges IS 362

June 03, 2025 | 2 min Read

ISI/BIS certification is mandatory for Parliament hinges, a vital standard in the construction and hardware industry as per IS 362:1991, which ensures that these essential components meet the stringent quality and safety requirements. Parliament hinges, known for their wide-throw design with cut-out sections at the top and bottom, play a vital role in the functionality and durability of doors, windows, cabinets and other fixtures. By adhering to IS 362:1991, manufacturers guarantee that their hinges conform to high standards of material, construction, finish, marking and packing.

IS 362:1991

IS 362:1991 classifies parliament hinges into three types: cast, pressed and fabricated. Type 1 hinges are made from cast brass, Type 2 from mild steel or aluminium alloy, and Type 3 from extruded aluminium alloy. The standard requires that the edges of the hinge knuckles be straight and at right angles to the flap, ensuring smooth and precise movement without any play or jerks. Additionally, Type 1 and Type 3 hinges should include washers made of nylon, plastic, or other suitable materials to increase performance and longevity.
