The pinnacle of roller guide performance
- EXCEPTIONAL APPLICATION RANGE
- MINIMIZED NOISE AND VIBRATION
- OPTIMIZED RIDE QUALITY AND FLOAT CONTROL
- DUARABLE, ENGINEERED DESIGN
Product Description
The ultimate solution for the most challenging load applications. Engineered to help mask hoistway imperfections that manifest themselves in high-rise buildings, while optimizing ride quality and passenger comfort.
Designed for elevator cars up to 2,000 fpm or 6,000 lbs capacity in standard applications in high-rise buildings, the Express-6 is a high-speed, heavy-load 6-wheel paired-roller guide with spring suspension, an adjustable stop on the face arm and six premium 10” diameter neoprene rollers.

Engineered and tested to meet ASME A17.1/CSA B44 and EN81 standards. ELSCO’s Express-6 roller guide is constructed from precision machined, ductile iron castings and is assembled using quality parts to ensure the installed roller guide will GO UNNOTICED.
-
Tandem-Roller Arms
- 6-wheels give added stability that can easily handle higher loads associated with service and hospital cars or higher speed passenger cars
- 6-wheel design steps over misaligned rail joints minimizing in-car vibration at high speeds
- The added stability of the tandem-roller arm design also helps compensate for unbalanced car conditions
-
Neoprene Rubber Roller Wheels
- Precision manufactured using ELSCO’s proprietary neoprene rubber tread compound
- 65A durometer tread dampens vibration and reduces noise even in high-speed applications
- Precisely ground tread profile provides a balanced and concentric roller
- High-memory tread characteristics prevent flat spotting
- Excellent resistance to oils, chemicals and UV for extended life
-
Precision Ball Bearings
- Industrial grade, high quality ball bearings will last for millions of cycles
- Dual bearing construction provides the roller extra stability, ensuring a true ride, free of noise and vibration
- Precision bearing press process during assembly at ELSCO ensures perfect fit, alignment and quality
-
Fully Adjustable Stabilizing Springs
- Independently adjust the pre-load force of the rollers on the rail to minimize bumps and vibration and ensure proper dampening
- Allow for maximum adjustability to optimize reduction in peak-to-peak lateral forces which improves ride quality
-
Adjustable Stop
- On the face arm allows control of the overall float of the elevator car between the rails in a post-to-post direction
- Allows for precise final adjustments to deal with troublesome hoistway issues
-
Ten-Inch Roller Wheels
- Extra-large diameter rollers reduce wheel RPMs at high speeds resulting in a smoother, quieter ride
- Help deal with hoistway imperfections that can be especially troublesome in high-rise buildings
-
Heavy Duty Castings and Design Features
- Precisely machined castings ensure the final assembly is of the highest quality
- Tested to meet applicable codes and standards ensuring the guides provide a lifetime of reliable performance
