The Cornerstone to Our Success
T-shaped guide rails, also called T-type guide rails, consist of a guide rail body and a fixed plate, with the rail body vertically positioned at the center of the fixed plate. The guide rail body includes a rail head and a rail tail. A shock-absorbing hole is designed at the rail head, housing a built-in shock-absorbing device that effectively reduces internal stress during elevator operation and extends the guide rail’s service life. The rail tail features a heat dissipation hole to help manage heat buildup during high-frequency use. The fixed plate is equipped with mounting holes embedded with elastic spacers, which prevent bolts from being over-tightened and enhance the guide rail's seismic resistance, further protecting the structure.
T-shaped guide rails are connected using a press-button (snap-fit) structure, which ensures high straightness and tight connection between segments, while also providing a positioning function. This design simplifies installation and significantly improves assembly efficiency.
Additionally, the guide rail features rounded chamfered edges, which help minimize friction between the guide shoe and the rail, reducing wear and operational noise.
The core component that directs the vertical movement of the elevator car and counterweight.
Usually made of steel, with a T-shaped cross-section for strength and alignment.
☞ Solid Guide rails ☞ Hollow Guide Rails
Also known as rail joints or fish plates, these are metal connectors used to join two sections of guide rail together.
They ensure continuous alignment and structural integrity.
☞ Solid Connecting Plates ☞ Hollow Connecting Plates
Fasteners that secure the guide rails to the rail brackets or building structure.
Keep the rails firmly fixed in place to prevent movement during operation.
☞ Solid Rail Clips ☞ Hollow Rail Clips
Structural supports that hold the guide rails at regular intervals inside the elevator shaft.
Maintain rail position, spacing, and rigidity, especially during high-speed travel.
