Airtac LSH Linear Guide Rail LSH20HN2X1840S20CN-M6

Complete guide setRail and carriage(s) supplied together, matched as a set.

The AirTAC Airtac LSH Linear Guide Rail LSH20HN2X1840S20CN-M6 is a standard-type profile linear guide on a 20 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 LSH20HN2X1840S20CN-M6

This listing is the complete guide: one hardened 1840 mm LSH20 profile rail, drilled for top-lock mounting with the S20 end-hole offset, carrying two HN square carriages of standard length. For size 20 the code matches the true rail width of 20 mm, so shoulders can be laid out straight from the drawing (H 4.3 mm, corner radius R max 0.5 mm). Inside each carriage, four rows of recirculating balls run in X-shaped arc raceways at a 45 degree contact angle, two contact points per ball, giving equal capacity in every direction and enough self-alignment to absorb slight mounting-surface error - within the limits for this size and preload, not beyond them.

Rated per standard carriage at 18.6 kN dynamic (C) and 28.6 kN static (C0), with allowable moments of MR 0.27, MP 0.25 and My 0.25 kN.m; the two carriages share the vertical duty and resist tipping along the 1840 mm travel. The C code is medium preload, the rigidity premium of this SKU: at 500 mm rail spacing it cuts the allowable height error from 130 um to 50 um, so faces must be machined, shimmed and torqued to a tighter standard than a preload-A set of the same size. Accuracy grade is N (normal), running parallelism 12-37 um across the catalogue length bands.

Where the Airtac LSH Linear Guide Rail LSH20HN2X1840S20CN-M6 Is Used

precision_manufacturing

SMT pick-and-place gantry

A component-placement bridge travelling 1840 mm across a PCB line benefits from medium preload: the firmer ball contact damps vibration at each stop position, while the two carriages keep the head bridge from pitching under the placement head.

view_module

Sheet-metal laser cutting bridge

On a flatbed cutter, the X bridge rides two carriages per side rail. The 0.27 kN.m moment rating per block and the shared load path handle the gantry mass offset, and grade N parallelism holds beam alignment along the full span.

conveyor_belt

Long-stroke conveyor diverter

A pusher or diverter sweeping across a wide conveyor runs thousands of short cycles per shift. The M6 fitting on each carriage makes the 0.6 cm3 top-up quick, and medium preload keeps the diverter from rocking as it reverses under load.

Is the Airtac LSH Linear Guide Rail LSH20HN2X1840S20CN-M6 the Right Guide?

Size this set on moment before load. Each standard carriage carries 18.6 kN dynamic and MR 0.27 kN.m, and the pair share the vertical duty; if a cantilevered or offset load pushes MR past that, a long LSH20 carriage (MR 0.35) or a step up to LSH25 (MR 0.44) usually fixes it more cleanly than a third block. If the duty is genuinely light and the envelope tight, LRM is the smaller family - its load ratings are not published, so we confirm them against your application before quoting. Where travel is short and you need crossed-roller stiffness rather than long recirculating travel, LGC is the closer match. The 1840 mm rail sits about 2200 mm below the 4040 mm Lmax for this size, so longer one-piece sections exist. Before ordering, tick the checklist: form (complete set), size by load AND moment, carriage style and length, block count and rail length, accuracy and preload with the installation trade-off, grease fitting, and the S20 end offset.

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
Ask an Engineer

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 LSH20HN2X1840S20CN-M6 FAQ

Per standard LSH20 carriage: dynamic rating C 18.6 kN, static rating C0 28.6 kN, allowable moments MR 0.27 / MP 0.25 / My 0.25 kN.m, all catalogue values in kN. Normal accuracy runs a 12-37 um parallelism band. Mount the rail with M5 screws at 882 N.cm into steel, 588 N.cm into cast iron or 441 N.cm into aluminium, and drive the supplied bolt caps fully into the counterbores so swarf cannot enter the ball circuit. Each standard carriage ships filled with 1.8 cm3 of Mobilux EP2; re-grease with 0.6 cm3 through the M6 fitting every 100 km of travel or every 3-6 months, whichever comes first.

Rigidity is not free. With preload C this set tolerates only 20 um of parallelism error and 50 um of height error per 500 mm of rail spacing, against 25 um and 130 um for the no-preload version - the height window shrinks to well under half. The self-aligning design absorbs slight error only, within those limits. Machine or shim the faces to suit, verify that the rail is pulled flat against the datum and torqued to the M5 figures, and keep mounting-surface corner radii at or below 0.5 mm.
