What is the flexible temple?
It is no stranger to the customers who sell glasses, what is a slingshot foot, what is a hinge, what is two plus one, and what is three plus two. Today I mainly want to come to popular science to learn about the slingshot feet. People also call it FLEXIBLE TEMPLE.
Pls check the below picture: This metal part we call it spring hinge. It means the temple can flexible.
Here show you another picture to clear what I said. The feet of the spring hinge feet can be projected outwards, so that the temples of the glasses can be opened outwards, so some guests can also wear wider heads. The feet with spring hinge have much better tension than those without spring hinge. For example, some relatively small frames may not be worn if they do not have spring hinge feet. If they have spring hinge, they can be worn.
So in future if you want buy some frames, they ask do you want with spring hinge or no? You will know what it means.
The quality for metal hinge & spring hinge is same, just the preference of the guest, the structure of the shelf makes difference design.
Thanks for reading.
