Airtac LSH Linear Guide Rail LSH15HN2X1140S15AN-AM6
The AirTAC Airtac LSH Linear Guide Rail LSH15HN2X1140S15AN-AM6 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.

About the Airtac LSH Linear Guide Rail LSH15HN2X1140S15AN-AM6
The LSH15HN2X1140S15AN-AM6 is a complete set: one 1140 mm LSH15 profile rail with a 15 mm end-hole offset and two standard-length square carriages already running on it. AM6 in the code selects a tube-type grease fitting on each carriage instead of a plain M4 nipple - on this size only the M4 family (M4, AM6, LM6) is offered, because larger nipples foul the compact block. Four rows of balls circle through X-shaped 45 degree arc raceways, giving equal ratings in all four load directions and absorbing slight misalignment of the mounting face.
Each carriage holds a first charge of 0.9 cm3 of Mobilux EP2 and takes 0.3 cm3 at re-greasing, due every 100 km of travel or every 3 to 6 months. With the AM6 tube fitting a grease gun couples quickly, which matters if the guide sits where a nipple is awkward to reach. Ratings per carriage: 11.3 kN dynamic, 17.9 kN static, 0.12 kN.m moment; accuracy grade N, no preload.

Where the Airtac LSH Linear Guide Rail LSH15HN2X1140S15AN-AM6 Is Used
Palletiser pusher axis
A layer-forming pusher on a small palletiser runs 1140 mm strokes; the AM6 points allow greasing without pulling guarding off to reach a buried nipple.
High-cycle crossfeed on an indexer
An indexer crossfeed cycling continuously reaches its 100 km grease interval within weeks; the AM6 tube fitting keeps each top-up to seconds of downtime.
Panel saw carriage retrofit
Retrofitting a sliding carriage on a workshop panel saw: the complete set drops onto a fresh 15 mm rail bed and the tube fittings suit occasional shop-floor greasing.
Is the Airtac LSH Linear Guide Rail LSH15HN2X1140S15AN-AM6 the Right Guide?
If the guide will be greased in place on a crowded machine, the AM6 tube fitting on this set is the practical choice, and on size 15 it is one of only three options (M4, AM6, LM6). Size for 11.3 kN dynamic per carriage and 0.12 kN.m of moment; a cantilever that overloads the moment figure calls for a long carriage or the LSH20 step-up rather than a bigger block count. Very light compact duties may suit the LRM family, whose ratings are not published and are confirmed on request, while short-travel, high-rigidity applications point to LGC crossed rollers instead.
Order checklist: complete set of rail plus two carriages, 1140 mm rail at a 15 mm end offset, square standard carriage, normal accuracy, no preload, AM6 fitting. Keep the pairing code of any original part to hand when buying replacements later.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Complete set, carriage only, or rail only?
- ✓ Worst-case moment, not just straight load
- ✓ Travel length and mounting space
- ✓ Accuracy grade and preload
- ✓ Mounting surface ground or finish-milled
- ✓ Pairing code, if replacing a part
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Mounting surface must be ground or finish-milled.
- check Torque the rail screws per the recommended figures, in sequence.
- check Keep the mounting corner radius inside the stated R maximum.
- check Do not angle the carriage onto the rail; balls can drop out.
- check Drive the supplied bolt caps into the mounting holes.
- check Re-grease every 100 km of travel or every 3–6 months.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac LSH Linear Guide Rail LSH15HN2X1140S15AN-AM6 FAQ
Per standard carriage: C 11.3 kN dynamic, C0 17.9 kN static, moments 0.12 kN.m for MR, MP and My. Normal accuracy gives 12 to 37 um running parallelism depending on finished rail length. Mounting is M4 screws at 412/274/206 N.cm for steel, cast iron and aluminium respectively. Each carriage leaves the factory with 0.9 cm3 of Mobilux EP2; top up 0.3 cm3 every 100 km of travel or every 3 to 6 months, then stroke the carriage at least three carriage-lengths twice and check the film spreads evenly along the rail.
Yes, in your favour. With preload A the ball circuit keeps internal clearance, so LSH15 tolerates up to 25 um parallelism error and 130 um height error between rails at 500 mm spacing, proportional to the real span. Even so, whether the rail is pulled flat against its datum and torqued correctly has a large effect on the accuracy you actually get, and the shoulder corner radius must stay within 0.5 mm. Should you later need a stiffer, zero-clearance fit, the same model is offered with B or C preload at a correspondingly tighter installation tolerance.
