Purpose and function of the hinge

The presented upper hinge is dedicated to the rear part of the body on the right side, where it is responsible for guiding and supporting the tailgate. Its design has been developed to maintain the correct axis of rotation for the tailgate, which limits stress on the sheet metal and seals, and reduces the risk of play developing during long-term use.

Using an original solution in this area is important for:

• maintaining proper closing of the tailgate,
• stable operation of gas struts and the lock,
• even load distribution in the mounting zone.

Sleek Silver Metallic finish and visual matching

The Sleek Silver Metallic color allows for an aesthetic match of the hinge to silver body elements and factory design details. Such a finish limits visual interference with the body line, which is especially important during post-accident repairs or when replacing individual components in the rear part of the vehicle.

A properly selected shade also facilitates integration with other elements from the Gas struts, locks, hinges and other parts group, which translates into a consistent final effect after the repair is completed.

Performance characteristics and installation

The upper tailgate hinge on the right side operates in demanding conditions – it carries the weight of the tailgate, reacts to dynamic loads while driving, and handles frequent opening cycles. Using an original design allows for maintaining the proper rigidity of the connection and predictable behavior of the tailgate throughout its entire range of motion.

When replacing this element, it is worth paying attention to:

• correct alignment of the tailgate relative to the body after installation,
• checking the interaction with the lock and gas struts,
• even tightening of the mounting points in accordance with the vehicle manufacturer's recommendations.

This approach helps reduce the risk of subsequent rattling, failure to close properly, or the tailgate rubbing against adjacent body elements.

Condition of the element and use in service practice

The offered hinge comes from a group of used parts, which makes it an attractive solution for economical repair of the rear body zone. In workshop practice, this type of component is often chosen for:

• post-collision repairs involving the rear part of the vehicle,
• eliminating play and sagging of the tailgate,
• comprehensive regeneration of the rear door opening mechanism.

Thanks to the preservation of factory geometry and mounting points, the hinge works well with original gas struts and locks used in Hyundai models.
