Counterpoise Guide Shoe Elevator Spare Parts Guide Rails 10 / 16mm Width

Rated Speed V≤3.5m/s Counterpoise Guide Shoe Lift Parts Width of guide rails 10/16mm

The elevator guide shoe is a critical component that ensures the smooth and stable movement of the elevator car and counterweight along the guide rails. Acting as an interface between the car frame and rails, it minimizes lateral vibrations, reduces noise, and maintains precise alignment during operation.

Modern guide shoes are typically constructed from high-strength, wear-resistant materials such as polyurethane, nylon composites, or lubricated metal alloys, depending on application requirements. They are classified into two main types:

1. Sliding Guide Shoes – Commonly used in low-to-medium speed elevators, these feature low-friction linings for quiet operation and require periodic lubrication.

2. Roller Guide Shoes – Employing rotating rollers instead of sliding surfaces, these are ideal for high-speed elevators, offering reduced friction, energy savings, and minimal maintenance.

Key advantages include:

• Enhanced Ride Comfort by dampening vibrations and noise

• Improved Safety through consistent rail alignment, preventing derailment risks

• Long Service Life through wear-resistant materials and self-lubricating designs

• Energy Efficiency (especially roller types) by reducing friction losses

Guide shoes must comply with international elevator safety standards (EN 81-20/50, ASME A17.1) regarding strength, durability, and fire resistance. Their precision engineering contributes significantly to the elevator's overall performance, reliability, and passenger comfort.

FAQ
1. Are the elevator wire ropes durable?
The elevator wire rope has special provisions and requirements. Configuration is not only for wire rope and rated load, but also considered the size of the traction, as a result, the tensile strength of wire rope is greater than the weight of the lift. The safety factor is equipped with more than four wire rope. So it won’t break at the same time.
2. Is it dangerous for power failure suddenly during the elevator running?
If it occurs, the elevator will automatically stop due to the electrical and mechanical safety device. In case of power failure,elevator brakes will automatically taken. In addition, the power supply departments such as planned outage, prior notice are also operating.
3. Will us be hurt when it closed suddenly?
In the closing process, if people touch the hall door, the door of elevator will automatically restart without any danger. With anti clamping switch, once the gate touched, this switching action make the elevator unable to be closed and even reopened. In addition, closing force is also available here.
4. How the elevator running?
Elevators are operated with a counterweight wire rope through the (tractor) traction drive, making ups and downs on the guide rail.
5. Is the escalator installation complicated?
We believe the functions of an escalator are not necessarily proportional to the operation complexity. Therefore, escalators designed by us apply an integrated structure, so that the equipment is more precise and more efficient and allows easier and more convenient commissioning.
6. Do you have any cerifications?
Yes, we do with ISO9001 / CCC / CE Certificates for u.
