Hardware for Tilt and Slide windows and door height windows shall be classified in accordance with
the four box coding system (see Table 1).
Table 1 — Classification system of hardware
Box 1 2 3 4
 Durability Mass Corrosion resistance Test sizes

4.2 Durability (1 – first box)
The first box shall display the grade applied to the durability test in accordance with 5.3:
— grade H1:  5 000;
— grade H2: 10 000;
— grade H3: 20 000.
4.3 Mass (2 – second box)
The second box shall display the maximum tested sash-mass (weight).
The mass range starts from 50 kg and varies in steps of 10 kg. An unlimited number of grades are

SIST EN 13126-17:2019
EN 13126-17:2019 (E)
— 1 200 mm SRW / 2 000 mm SRH
The stated sizes are test sizes only. They do not relate to the maximum or minimum sizes to which a
window may be fabricated.
The manufacturer shall ensure, that with the application of the tested hardware in window sizes
deviating from the test sizes (smaller or larger), the forces on the hardware do not exceed those during
the durability test. This shall be reflected in the appropriate product documentation.
In the case of not being capable of manufacturing the specified test size due to the fact that the
hardware field of application is smaller than these specified test sizes, smaller test sizes shall be used. In
this case the window shall be tested in accordance with the largest possible SRW (or SRH) as specified
by the hardware manufacturers appropriate documentation and a SRH (or SRW) in a ratio of
2 000/1 200 (factor approximately 1,67).
This means that if the specified test sizes are larger than those which can be manufactured, the test
specimens shall be tested using the largest possible SRW or SRH in accordance with the manufacturer's
documentation and using a SRH to SRW ratio of 2 000/1 200 (factor approximately 1,67).
EXAMPLE 1 largest possible SRH = 800 mm = SRH of the test specimen
SRH = 800 mm × 2 000/1 200 = 1 333 mm = SRH of the test specimen
EXAMPLE 2 largest possible SRW = 1 600 mm = SRW of the test specimen
SRW = 1 600 mm × 1 200/2 000 = 960 mm = SRW of the test specimen
The missing dimensions in each case (SRH or SRW) should be calculated in accordance with example 1
or example 2 with the objective of establishing the maximum test-format, which lies within the
hardware manufacturers application range.
4.6 Example of classification
a) Alternative 1: Table with boxes
 1 2 3 4
EN 13126-17:YYYY H2 120 3 1 200/2 000

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 13126-17.
b) Alternative 2: Alphanumerical
EN 13126-17:YYYY H2-120-3-1 200/2 000
This denotes hardware for Tilt and Slide windows and door height windows, which have:
box 1 durability grade H2 (10 000 cycles)
box 2 mass 120 kg
box 3 corrosion resistance grade 3
box 4 test sizes SW = 1 200 mm / SH = 2 000 mm

h
end point of the handle, shall not be exceeded during the normal operation of the hardware.
The length of the handle used during the test or the length of the handle intended for the hardware set
shown in the hardware manufacturer’s documentation shall be recorded in the test report.
The torque Th resulting from the operative length of the used handle (key l2 in Figure 1) and the force of
100 N shall be calculated and recorded in the test report.
EXAMPLE length of the handle = 220 mm
operative length (key l in Figure 1) = 220 mm – 20 mm = 200 mm

4 Classification
4.1 General
Hardware for Tilt and Slide windows and door height windows shall be classified in accordance with
the four box coding system (see Table 1).
Table 1 — Classification system of hardware
Box 1 2 3 4
 Durability Mass Corrosion resistance Test sizes
4.2 Durability (1 – first box)
The first box shall display the grade applied to the durability test in accordance with 5.3:
— grade H1:  5 000;
— grade H2: 10 000;
— grade H3: 20 000.
4.3 Mass (2 – second box)
The second box shall display the maximum tested sash-mass (weight).
The mass range starts from 50 kg and varies in steps of 10 kg. An unlimited number of grades are
identified, whereby 050 is the lowest.
Table 2 — Tested sash-mass
Grade 050 060 070 080 090 100 110 120 130 …
Mass (kg) 50 60 70 80 90 100 110 120 130 …
4.4 Corrosion resistance (3 – third box)
The third box shall display the grade regarding corrosion resistance in accordance with 5.4.
4.5 Test sizes (4 – fourth box)
The fourth box shall display the test sizes (active sash) which were used for testing the hardware for

---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 13126-17:2018
prEN 13126-17:2018 (E)
The stated sizes are test sizes only. They do not relate to the maximum or minimum sizes to which a
window may be fabricated.
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 (smaller or larger),
the forces on the hardware do not exceed those during the durability test.
In the case of not being capable of manufacturing the specified test size due to the fact that the
hardware field of application is smaller than these specified test sizes, smaller test sizes shall be used. In
this case the window shall be tested in accordance with the largest possible SRW (or SRH) as specified
by the hardware manufacturers appropriate documentation and a SRH (or SRW) in a ratio of
2 000/1 200 mm (factor approximately 1,67).
This means that if the specified test sizes are larger than those which can be manufactured, the test
specimens shall be tested using the largest possible SRW or SRH in accordance with the manufacturer's
documentation and using a SRH to SRW ratio of 2 000/1 200 mm (factor approximately 1,67).
Example 1 largest possible SRW = 800 mm = SRW of the test specimen
800 mm × 2 000/1 200 = 1 333 mm
SRH = 1 333 mm = SRH of the test specimen
Example 2 largest possible SRH = 1 600 mm = SRH of the test specimen
1 600 mm × 1 200/2 000 = 960 mm
SRW = 960 mm = SRW of the test specimen
The missing dimensions in each case (SRH or SRW) should be calculated in accordance with example 1
or example 2 with the objective of establishing the maximum test-format, which lies within the
hardware manufacturers application range.
4.6 Example of classification
a) Alternative 1: Table with boxes
 1 2 3 4
EN 13126-17:YYYY H2 120 3 1 200/2 000
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 13126-17.
b) Alternative 2: Alphanumerical
EN 13126-17:YYYY H2-120-3-1 200/2 000
This denotes hardware for Tilt and Slide windows and door height windows, which have:
box 1 durability grade H2 (10 000 cycles)
box 2 mass 120 kg
box 3 corrosion resistance grade 3
box 4 test sizes SRW = 1 300 mm / SRH = 2 000 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 Additional requirements
5.2.1 Handle operation tolerance
The maximum torque T which is the result of a force of 100 N applied at a distance of 20 mm from the
h,
end point of the handle, shall not be exceeded during the normal operation of the hardware.
The length of the handle used during the test or the length of the handle intended for the hardware set
shown in the hardware manufacturer’s documentation shall be recorded in the test report.
The torque Th resulting from the operative length of the used handle (key l2 in Figure 1) and the force of
100 N shall be calculated and recorded in the test report.
For example: length of the handle (key l in Figure 1) = 220 mm
1
operative length (key l in Figure 1) = 220 mm – 20 mm = 200 mm
2
torque T = operative length × force F = 200 mm × 100 N  = 20 Nm
