ABSTRACT:
The newel guide for an escalator or moving walkway is formed from a curvilinear self-lubricating plastic cage which serves as a race for a plurality of steel ball bearings. The ball bearings are freely rotatable in appropriate recesses formed in the plastic cage, and the handrail inner surface contacts the ball bearings and slides over them around the newel.
