The AirTAC Airtac LSH Linear Guide Rail LSH25BK-F2L-P-D-M6 is a standard-type profile linear guide on a 23 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.
LSH25BK-F2L-P-D-M6 is a spare long carriage, not a complete guide. It is the size 25 F2 bottom-flange block in P precision, with M6 grease point and pairing code D, sold so a worn slide can be renewed without replacing sound rail. Like every LSH block it carries four ball rows on 45 degree X-shaped raceways, so downward, lift-off and side loads all draw on the same rating, and minor surface misalignment is taken up inside the body. The 23 mm rail of size 25 is narrower than the size code suggests - verify your datum layout before machining.
Static capacity is 53.0 kN, about 1.6 times the 32.9 kN dynamic rating, and moments reach 0.58 / 0.57 / 0.57 kN.m. Because a carriage alone costs roughly a quarter of a full set, swapping the block is the economic repair whenever the rail still passes a clean straightness check. Keep the grease schedule honest: on a 250 mm stroke cycling 20 times a minute, a block covers 100 km in around two weeks, so the distance limit bites well before the calendar's 3 to 6 months.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC LSH catalogue. The catalogue page does not state the carriage or rail base material. Sizes 35 and 45 exist in the catalogue but are not stocked here; they are available to order. This item is a carriage only. Order a complete set if you also need a rail.

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 carousel filler's guide block that has braked loads for millions of cycles can be swapped in one shutdown window, restoring the 32.9 kN dynamic rating without touching the rail.
Rebuilding a gantry robot's vertical slide with a fresh P-grade block returns the original 0.58 kN.m moment capacity for cantilevered grippers.
Adding a bottom-flange carriage under an undercut workstop lets the top surface carry clamps while the flange fastens from beneath the table.
Buy this D-coded block when the original carriage on your machine is worn and the rail is sound; the pairing letter D must match the rail, and P accuracy carries over from the code. If the application is lighter and space-constrained, LRM may suit the frame better - its load ratings are unpublished, so ask us to confirm them. Where travel is short and stiffness matters more than stroke, compare LGC crossed-roller guides; where moment demand outgrows 0.58 kN.m, go up to LSH30. Before ordering confirm: carriage-only form, size from load and moment, flange style F2, long body, accuracy P, M6 fitting, pairing D. One caution: side-mounted nipples are not recommended on flange-type carriages because the fitting can foul adjacent parts, so check clearance before mounting.
Quick checklist
Per carriage: C 32.9 kN dynamic, C0 53.0 kN static, moments MR 0.58 / MP 0.57 / My 0.57 kN.m. Accuracy P means 3-21 um running parallelism across the rail length. Lubrication: Mobilux EP2, 4.5 cm3 first charge and 1.4 cm3 per top-up, renewed every 100 km or 3-6 months via the M6 fitting. The mating rail uses M6 screws torqued to 1370 / 921 / 686 N.cm on steel / cast iron / aluminium.
The box holds one long F2 carriage with its M6 grease point - no rail, no rail screws, no bolt caps. D is the pairing letter: the replacement block must share it with the rail, because carriages are matched to same-code rails for smoothness, preload and accuracy. Read the D off the original block or the rail end before ordering.
