Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about escalator parts and procurement

Step chain identification requires the chain pitch, roller diameter, and attachment specifications. Provide your escalator model number, nameplate data, or send photos of the existing chain including a measurement reference for accurate matching.
 
Handrail slippage is typically caused by worn drive rollers, stretched handrail belts, or contamination on the drive surfaces. We can supply replacement drive rollers and handrail belts matched to your system specifications.
 
Yes, many escalator components are compatible with moving walkways. We supply pallets, drive systems, handrail components, and safety devices for horizontal and inclined moving walkways.
 
Step chains should be replaced when elongation exceeds 2% of original length, when visible wear on rollers or pins is present, or when chain noise increases significantly. Regular measurement during maintenance is recommended.
Yes. Send clear photos of the component nameplate, part number label, or the unit itself. Our technical team will identify compatible replacements and provide quotations within 24–48 hours.
Yes, we offer both OEM original parts and quality aftermarket alternatives. We clearly specify compatibility and can recommend the best option based on your requirements, budget, and availability.
We supply parts for major escalator manufacturers including Otis, KONE, Schindler, ThyssenKrupp, Mitsubishi, Hitachi, and regional brands. Our technical team can assist with cross-reference and compatibility verification.
Standard spare parts are typically available within 5-10 business days. Specialized components like step chains or custom steps may require 3-6 weeks. We provide accurate delivery estimates with each quotation.
