Mitsubishi Elevator Guide Roller Shoe LUR76EG02 / G04 / G06 / G08

LUR76EG02, G04, G06, and G08 are commonly used in Mitsubishi elevator rolling guide systems.

Unlike standard sliding guide shoes, roller guide shoes use rolling structures to improve running smoothness and reduce vibration during high-speed elevator operation.

Usually associated with:

• high-speed elevators
• guide rail running systems
• car frame stabilization
• vibration reduction assemblies

These models are commonly installed on the elevator car frame and counterweight guidance system.

Available guide roller shoe versions include: 

• LUR76EG02
• LUR76EG04
• LUR76EG06 
• LUR76EG08

Please confirm the original roller shoe label, rail size, and installation position before ordering.

Common Field Situation

In some Mitsubishi elevators used in commercial towers in Kuwait and Poland, roller guide systems may gradually show wear after long-term operation under continuous traffic conditions.

Typical situations may include:

• increased running vibration
• abnormal rolling noise
• unstable rail contact
• uneven roller wear
• slight cabin shaking at high speed

During overhaul work, technicians sometimes replace the roller assembly together with related damping components.

Why Roller Guide Systems Matter

Compared with sliding guide shoes, roller guide systems are more suitable for:

• higher elevator speeds
• smoother cabin movement
• reduced rail friction
• improved ride comfort

Because of this, many Mitsubishi high-rise elevator systems use roller guide structures for long-term running stability.

System Relationship

The roller shoe assembly commonly works together with:

• guide rails
• damping systems
• car frame structures
• counterweight guidance systems

If the roller pressure becomes unstable, running comfort and rail contact stability may also be affected.

Some Mitsubishi systems use different G02 / G04 / G06 / G08 configurations depending on load and speed design.

FAQ

Can worn guide rollers cause elevator vibration?

Yes. In some Mitsubishi elevators, uneven roller wear may gradually increase cabin vibration and running noise.

Why are roller guide shoes used in high-speed elevators?

Because rolling structures generally provide smoother movement and lower friction compared with sliding guide systems.

Installation Notes

Before replacement:

• roller specification should match original configuration
• rail size compatibility must be confirmed
• damping adjustment should be checked carefully after installation

Some Mitsubishi high-speed systems use different roller hardness depending on operating conditions.
