This is where faigle comes in – we supply an extensive range of products that have been specially designed for applications like these:

faigle products for escalators

faigle produces various rollers and components for escalators and moving walks. They each perform different functions:

Step rollers keep the escalator steps moving and can handle heavy loads as well as high speeds
