SIST EN 13126-8:2018
EN 13126-8:2017 (E)
The stated sizes are test sizes only. They do not relate to the maximum sizes to which a window may be
fabricated with the tested hardware.
The manufacturer shall ensure, in accordance with the appropriate product documentation, that with the
application of the tested hardware in window sizes deviating from the test sizes, the forces on the
hardware do not exceed those during the durability test.
4.6 Example of classification for Tilt and Turn hardware
a) Alternative 1: Table with boxes:
 1 2 3 4
EN 13126-8:2017 H2 080 3 1 300 ⤬ 1 200
In accordance with Clause 8 the information regarding the classification by using a table with boxes shall
always be shown together with the number of this standard, EN 13126-8.
b) Alternative 2: Alphanumerical:
EN 13126-8:2017 H2-080-3-1 300 ⤬ 1 200
This denotes Tilt and Turn hardware, which have:
— box 1 durability grade H2 (10 000 cycles)
— box 2 mass 80 kg
— box 3 corrosion resistance grade 3
— box 4 test sizes SRW = 1 300 mm, SRH = 1 200 mm
5 Requirements
5.1 Dangerous substances
Materials in products should not release any dangerous substances in excess of the maximum levels
specified in the European material standards and any national regulations.
5.2 Mechanical stability
5.2.1 Stability of the scissor stay
The scissors stay shall ensure that a sash, when operated incorrectly (mishandled), is securely held.
In case of mishandling, the hinges (scissor stay with stay bearing and corner pivot rest with sash hinge)
shall still demonstrate a connection between the sash and the frame and afterwards function in its
intended manner.
If the scissors stay does not fulfil this requirement, a mishandling device shall be installed. In this case
the test takes place in accordance with Clause 7 with an installed mishandling device.
5.2.2 Mechanical strength of hinges
Hinges which have a scissor stay with a stay bearing and corner pivot rest with sash hinge shall guide the
sash securely during every operating position.
Such hinges (scissor stay arm with stay bearing and corner pivot rest with sash hinge) shall be tested
with static load, as described in Figure 1 and Figure 2, which correspond to a fivefold load value of the
frame hinges under test procedures specified in Clause 7 (see load value “F” from Table 3 and Table 4).
The test consists of testing 20 individual hardware components of each type of hinges (see 7.2).

European foreword
This document (prEN 13126-8:2016) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 33 “Doors,
windows, shutters, building hardware and curtain walling”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 13126-8:2006.
This European Standard is one of a series of European Standards for building hardware products for
windows and door height windows. This European Standard is independent of EN 13126-1.
The performance tests incorporated in this European Standard are considered to be reproducible and
as such will provide a consistent and objective assessment of the performance of these products
throughout CEN Member States.

5 Requirements
5.1 Dangerous substances
Materials in products should not release any dangerous substances in excess of the maximum levels
specified in the European material standards and any National regulations.
5.2 Mechanical stability
5.2.1 Stability of the scissor stay
The scissors stay shall ensure that a sash, when operated incorrectly (mishandled), is securely held.
In this case (of mishandling), the hinges (scissor stay with stay bearing and corner pivot rest with sash
hinge) shall still demonstrate a connection between the sash and the frame and afterwards function in
its intended manner.
If the scissors stay does not fulfil this demand, a mishandling-device shall be installed. In this case the
test takes place in accordance with Clause 7 with an installed mishandling-device.
5.2.2 Mechanical strength of hinges
Hinges which have a scissor stay with a stay bearing and corner pivot rest with sash hinge, shall guide
the sash securely during every operating position.
Such hinges (scissor stay arm with stay bearing and corner pivot rest with sash hinge) shall be tested
with static load, as described in the following Figure 1 and Figure 2, which correspond to a fivefold load
value of the frame hinges under test procedures specified in Clause 7 (refer to load value “F” from the
10

---------------------- Page: 12 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 13126-8:2016

following Table 3 and Table 4). The test comprises of testing 20 individual hardware components of
each type of hinges.
Concealed corner pivot rest should not be tested.
There may be no cracks or damage on any of the tested stay bearings and corner pivot rests with sash
hinge with the exception of installing and positioning aids (or coating / surface finish).
