Plate pintles appeared with the advent of readily available rolled plate iron, say the early 1800’s.

They work well with frame construction and examples can be found from then through now.

The rectangular plate is probably the most commonly used pintle with strap and other hinge forms.

The plate is 1-1/2” wide by 3-3/4” tall for a 1-1/2” width hinge. Add 1/2 ” to the height for a 2” wide hinge.
