摘要

The invention relates to a handrail (1) for escalators or moving walkways (2) comprising a grip piece (2) which is made of a thermoplastic elastomer composed of soft and hard segments and an optional sliding layer (4) that is disposed on the bottom face of the grip piece (2) relative to the mounting orientation of the handrail (1).
