The AirTAC Airtac LSH Linear Guide Rail LSH15BK-F2N-N-C-M4 is a standard-type profile linear guide on a 15 mm wide rail. Four rows of balls contact X-shaped raceways at a 45° angle, so the guide carries load equally in all four directions and absorbs small mounting errors inside the carriage instead of binding.
This is a carriage-only sale: one AirTAC LSH15 F2 flange block, standard length, normal grade, M4 fitting, pairing code C. There is no rail in the box, so it is a part for someone who already has a sound 15 mm wide LSH15 profile rail and needs to bolt a new carriage onto it from underneath. The ball circuit has four rows at 45 degree contact angles, two contact points per ball, which keeps the block running smoothly even when the mounting face is not perfect.
Rated 11.3 kN dynamic and 17.9 kN static per carriage, with 0.12 kN.m moment capacity in all three directions. Because F2 mounts through its base flange, the carriage top face stays completely clear - useful under a worktable or wherever the deck above must remain unobstructed. Order the pairing letter that matches your rail: here that is C.

This is a carriage on its own. NO RAIL IS INCLUDED. If you are not sure which form you need, send us the machine or the original part number and we will confirm it before you order.
A light-production CNC router rebuild benefits from bottom-flange mounting: the F2 bolts up under the Z plate and leaves the top face clear for the spindle clamp.
Liquid-handler autosamplers run millions of short cycles. This code-C block pairs with the lab's existing 15 mm LSH15 rail, and normal grade suits the accuracy class typical of such stages.
On a machining fixture, a sliding clamp arm can hang off a bottom-mounted flange carriage with nothing above it, since F2 needs no bolt access through the top face.
Match the part to the machine, then the machine to the numbers. This F2 block suits a build where the top deck must stay clear, because everything bolts through the base flange. Check the duty against 11.3 kN dynamic and 0.12 kN.m moment; a cantilevered load is usually limited by the moment figure, and if so a longer block is the fix - on LSH20, choosing the long carriage raises MR about 30 percent while the dynamic rating rises only 19, so the long block is often the cheaper way to buy moment. Light-duty small-envelope jobs may suit LRM instead, whose ratings we confirm on request; short-travel stiff applications may suit LGC. Checklist for this SKU: carriage only, no rail supplied, size 15, F2, standard length, accuracy N, grease M4, pairing code C - the rail it mounts on must also be code C.
Quick checklist
C 11.3 kN dynamic and C0 17.9 kN static per carriage; moment allowances MR 0.12, MP 0.12 and My 0.12 kN.m; normal-grade running parallelism 12-37 um across the rail-length range. Rail mounting: M4 socket screws at 412 N.cm steel, 274 N.cm cast iron, 206 N.cm aluminium, with the shoulder corner radius kept at or under 0.5 mm. Lubrication: Mobilux EP2, 0.9 cm3 charge, 0.3 cm3 top-up, every 100 km or 3 to 6 months.
One carriage only: LSH15 F2 bottom-flange block, standard length, normal accuracy, M4 fitting, pairing code C. No rail is included and none is described by this code. The letter C is the match key - your existing rail's code must also read C. Check too that the fitting is accessible: on flange blocks a side-mounted nipple or tube fitting can foul the carriage body, so plan the routing before mounting.
