This draft European Standard is submitted to CEN members for enquiry. It has been drawn up by the Technical Committee
CEN/TC 167.
If this draft becomes a European Standard, CEN members are bound to comply with the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations
which stipulate the conditions for giving this European Standard the status of a national standard without any alteration.

This draft European Standard was established by CEN in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other
language made by translation under the responsibility of a CEN member into its own language and notified to the CEN-CENELEC
Management Centre has the same status as the official versions.

European foreword
This document (prEN 1337-8:2018) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 167
“Structural bearings”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 1337-8:2007.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Regulation 305/2011.
For relationship with EU Regulation 305/2011, see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of
this document.
prEN 1337, Structural bearings, consists of the following 8 Parts:
— Part 1: General;
— Part 2: Sliding elements;
— Part 3: Elastomeric bearings;
— Part 4: Roller bearings;
— Part 5: Pot bearings;
— Part 6: Rocker bearings;
— Part 7: Spherical and cylindrical PTFE bearings;
— Part 8: Guide bearings and Restraint bearings.
The major technical changes are listed below:
— Complete technical and editorial revision of the document; it is not possible to list all implemented
changes to this edition of EN 1337-8.
1 Scope
This document specifies rules for the design, testing and manufacture of guide bearings and restraint
bearings. It is applicable to bearings, which transmit loads in x- and y-plane according to
prEN 1337-1:2018 only.
This document will be used in conjunction with the relevant parts of the prEN 1337 series.
2 Normative references
The following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all of their content
constitutes requirements of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For
undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

3.1
base plate
plate that is an integral part of the bearing and forms the main component to which restraints and
guides are attached
[SOURCE: prEN 1337-2:2018, 3.21.13]
3.2
tilting element
element that transmits the specified forces and permits rotations about at least one axis
3.3
guide bearing
bearing which provides restraint in one horizontal direction only, accommodates rotations and does
not transmit vertical loads
3.4
restraint bearing
bearing which prevents movements in a plane, accommodates rotations and does not transmit loads
perpendicular to this plane
4 Types of restraint and guide bearings
4.1 Restraint bearing
The restraint bearing consists of ferrous components with sliding elements (restraints) and, where
necessary, tilting elements.
The restraint bearing transmits forces in the x-y-plane according to prEN 1337-1:2018 and allows
movements in the z-direction and rotations.
Typical restraint bearings are shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1 — Typical restraint bearings
4.2 Guide bearings
The guide bearing consists of ferrous components with sliding elements (guides) and, where necessary,
tilting elements.
The guide bearing transmits forces in either the x- or y-direction according to prEN 1337-1:2018 and
allows movements in all other directions and rotations.
Typical guide bearings are shown in Figure 2.

5 Material Properties
The materials used for the load transfer in sliding contact surfaces shall comply with
prEN 1337-2:2018.
Guide bearings and restraint bearings shall be manufactured from ferrous materials in accordance with
one of the following standards: the EN 10025 series, EN 10083-3, EN 10088-2, EN 10340.
