Elevator Counterweight Guide Shoe 100MM16 & 100MM10: Stable Guidance from Nanjing Zhuye Elevatorparts

Elevator Counterweight Guide Shoe 100MM*16 and 100MM*10 are core guiding components for elevator counterweight systems, with specifications of 100mm (guide rail contact width) × 16mm (shoe lining thickness) and 100mm × 10mm respectively. They are mounted on the counterweight frame, responsible for restricting the horizontal movement of the counterweight, ensuring it moves stably and smoothly along the guide rail during elevator operation. The different shoe lining thicknesses make them suitable for various counterweight weights and elevator load requirements: 100MM*16 is ideal for heavy-duty elevators (load ≥ 1000kg), while 100MM*10 fits medium-light elevators (load ≤ 800kg). Widely compatible with mainstream elevator guide rail models (T75, T89, T114), these guide shoes are essential components for residential buildings, commercial complexes, office towers, and industrial elevators. Exclusively supplied by Nanjing Zhuye Elevatorparts, a professional provider of high-quality elevator components, these Elevator Counterweight Guide Shoe 100MM*16 & 100MM*10 fully comply with international elevator safety standards (EN 81-20, GB 7588) and mechanical guiding component specifications. Manufactured with premium materials and precision craftsmanship, they feature excellent wear resistance, shock absorption, and stable guiding performance, earning recognition from global elevator maintenance teams.

Nanjing Zhuye Elevatorparts adheres to the core philosophy of “Stable Guidance, Durable Protection” and implements rigorous quality control for the 100MM*16 and 100MM*10 counterweight guide shoes. Each unit undergoes multi-stage pre-delivery inspections, including wear resistance testing, load-bearing verification, dimensional accuracy detection, and shock absorption performance evaluation. The guide shoes adopt advanced materials and technologies: the shoe lining is made of high-density wear-resistant rubber or polyurethane (PU), which reduces friction with the guide rail and lowers operational noise (≤ 50dB); the base is made of high-strength Q235 steel,经过 shot blasting and anti-rust treatment to resist corrosion in the elevator shaft (-20℃ to 80℃); the standardized 100mm guide rail contact width ensures stable contact with the guide rail, while the 16mm and 10mm shoe lining thicknesses are tailored to different load-bearing needs. The integrated mounting hole design enables seamless matching with counterweight frames, simplifying installation and replacement.

Step-by-Step Usage Guide for Elevator Counterweight Guide Shoe 100MM16 & 100MM10

To maximize the service life, guiding stability, and safety performance of the 100MM*16 and 100MM*10 counterweight guide shoes, strictly follow the professional guidelines provided by Nanjing Zhuye Elevatorparts for selection, installation, and maintenance:

1. Professional Selection & Pre-Installation Preparation

Installation must be performed by certified elevator technicians. Prior to selection, refer to the elevator’s load capacity, counterweight weight, and guide rail model (confirm with the elevator manual or Nanjing Zhuye Elevatorparts’ technical team): choose 100MM*16 for heavy-duty elevators with large counterweight weights, and 100MM*10 for medium-light elevators. Preparation steps: Cut off the elevator’s main power supply and lock the power switch; use a hoisting device to stabilize the counterweight frame at a convenient maintenance position and fix it with mechanical supports; clean the guide rail surface and counterweight frame mounting area to remove dust, oil stains, and rust.

2. Correct Installation & Gap Adjustment

Guide Shoe Fixing: Take the matched 100MM*16 or 100MM*10 guide shoe from Nanjing Zhuye Elevatorparts, align it with the mounting holes on the counterweight frame, and fix it with high-strength bolts (torque: 45–55N·m). Ensure the guide shoe is vertically installed, with the shoe lining closely fitting the guide rail surface.
Gap Adjustment: Use a feeler gauge to adjust the gap between the shoe lining and the guide rail (standard gap: 0.5–1mm). For 100MM*16 guide shoes (heavy-duty), slightly tighten the adjustment bolts to ensure stable load-bearing; for 100MM*10 (medium-light), keep the gap within the standard range to ensure smooth movement. After adjustment, lock the adjustment nuts to prevent loosening during operation.
Auxiliary Component Installation: Install the dust cover (provided by Nanjing Zhuye Elevatorparts) on the guide shoe to prevent dust and debris from entering the shoe lining and guide rail contact surface; check the lubrication system and ensure the oil cup is filled with special guide rail lubricating oil to reduce friction.

3. Post-Installation Testing & Daily Maintenance

Operation Test: Restore the power supply and switch the elevator to inspection mode. Operate the elevator to run up and down, observing the counterweight movement. Ensure there is no abnormal noise, jitter, or deviation; use a vibration tester to confirm the vibration amplitude is ≤ 0.3mm.
Daily Inspection: Maintenance personnel should check the guide shoes during daily patrols: observe the shoe lining for wear, cracks, or deformation; check if the mounting bolts and adjustment nuts are loose; verify the guide rail surface is free of scratches caused by the guide shoe.
Regular Maintenance: Every 3 months, clean the shoe lining and guide rail surface with a soft cloth; apply a thin layer of special lubricating grease to the contact surface. Every 6 months, recheck the gap between the shoe lining and the guide rail and adjust if there is any deviation. For high-traffic elevators, shorten the maintenance interval to 1 month.

Recommended Replacement Cycle for Elevator Counterweight Guide Shoe 100MM16 & 100MM10

As core guiding components enduring long-term friction, load-bearing, and environmental erosion (humidity, dust, temperature changes), the 100MM*16 and 100MM*10 counterweight guide shoes have a specified service life. Timely replacement is crucial to avoiding faults such as excessive shoe lining wear, guide shoe deformation, or loose fixing—issues that may lead to unstable counterweight movement, increased noise, or even guide rail damage, affecting elevator operation safety.

1. Standard Replacement Cycle

Under normal operating conditions (elevator daily operation time 12–24 hours, daily running times ≥ 1000, shaft environment temperature -20–80℃, humidity 10%–95%), the recommended replacement cycle for both 100MM*16 and 100MM*10 counterweight guide shoes is 3–5 years. This cycle is determined based on Nanjing Zhuye Elevatorparts’ long-term field data, shoe lining wear tests, and global user feedback.

2. Adjustments for Special Scenarios

Heavy-Duty & Harsh Environments: For 100MM*16 guide shoes used in heavy-duty elevators (daily load ≥ 1200kg) or elevators in harsh environments (high-humidity coastal areas, high-dust industrial sites), the replacement cycle is shortened to 2–3 years. Heavy load and harsh conditions accelerate shoe lining wear and base corrosion.
Medium-Light & Stable Environments: For 100MM*10 guide shoes in medium-light elevators (daily operation time < 12 hours) with stable shaft environments (constant temperature and humidity), the replacement cycle can be extended to 5–6 years—only after Nanjing Zhuye Elevatorparts’ technicians inspect and confirm that the shoe lining wear (wear depth ≤ 3mm), guiding stability, and base integrity meet factory standards.

3. Immediate Replacement Conditions

Replace the guide shoe immediately if any of the following issues occur, regardless of service life:

The shoe lining is severely worn (wear depth > 5mm for 100MM*16, > 3mm for 100MM*10) or cracked, leading to direct contact between the steel base and the guide rail.
The guide shoe base is deformed, corroded, or cracked, affecting the fixed connection with the counterweight frame.
Abnormal vibration or noise occurs during counterweight operation, and the fault persists after gap adjustment and lubrication.
Professional testing confirms that the guide shoe’s guiding deviation exceeds 2mm, posing a risk to elevator operation safety.

In conclusion, the Elevator Counterweight Guide Shoe 100MM*16 & 100MM*10 from Nanjing Zhuye Elevatorparts are high-quality, tailored guiding solutions for different elevator load requirements. By following the correct selection, installation, maintenance, and replacement guidelines, elevator maintenance teams can ensure stable counterweight operation, reduce mechanical failures, and extend elevator service life.
