Description:
A hinge for hood tilt, also known as a hood tilt kit or hood hinge kit, is a mechanism that allows a machine's hood to be tilted or lifted at an angle for easier access to the engine compartment. It provides a convenient way to prop open the hood securely without the need for a traditional hood prop rod. The installation of a hood tilt kit usually involves removing the existing hood hinges and replacing them with the tilt hinges. The kit may also include additional components such as gas struts or hydraulic cylinders to assist in holding the hood in the open position.

Attributes:
• Made of durable materials to handle the weight of the hood and provide strength and longevity.
• The outer diameter of the pin is 12.55.
• Improves accessibility to the engine bay, making maintenance and repairs easier and more convenient.
• Designed with safety features or considerations to minimize potential risks and ensure user safety during operation.
