An industrial truck includes a loading platform onto which and from which a load is pushable in a direction, and masts which are arranged opposed to each other. The masts lift, lower, and guide the loading platform, which is arranged between the masts, in a lifting and lowering direction. Each of the masts has guide profiles, each of which has an inner cross-section with a side surface which extends in the lifting and lowering direction and which is perpendicular to the direction. The loading platform has at least one guide element for each of the guide profiles. The at least one guide element slides and/or rolls on the side surface of the respective guide profile.
