This Part of this European Standard deals with the requirements for the design and manufacture of Guide
Bearings and Restraint Bearings.
Guide Bearings and Restraint Bearings are not intended to transmit vertical loads but they may be combined
in one unit with bearings in accordance. EN 1337-1:2000, Table 1.
NOTE 1 Guide Bearings and Restraint Bearings are shown in EN 1337-1:2000, Table 1, No. 8.1 and 8.2. For combined
bearings see EN 1337-1:2000, Table 1, bearing Nos. 1.2, 1.3, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8., 3.1, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 7.1, 7.3, and 7.4 with
restraints and Nos. 1.5, 1.7, 2.2, 3.3, 3.4, 5.2, 6.2 and 7.3 with guides.
NOTE 2 Examples of combined bearings are given in Annex B.
The minimum operating temperature depends on the materials’ properties used at the required temperature
and the limitations given in the referenced parts of this European Standard.
NOTE 3 In certain circumstances the bearings described in this part of this European Standard may be required to
operate in a plane inclined to the horizontal. In such circumstances the terms "vertical" and "horizontal" should be
interpreted appropriately.
