The AirTAC Airtac LSH Linear Guide Rail LSH25BK-HN-N-E-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.
This listing supplies one AirTAC LSH25 square carriage only - standard length, normal grade, M6 fitting, pairing code E. The rail is not part of the package. The block carries four rows of recirculating balls on X-configured 45 degree arc raceways, giving the same load rating vertically and laterally plus built-in self-alignment that soaks up small mounting-surface errors. Its rail partner in size 25 is 23 mm wide; lay out any new mounting pad from the datasheet, not from the code.
Figures per carriage: 26.9 kN basic dynamic, 39.4 kN basic static, moments 0.44 kN.m MR, 0.38 kN.m MP and 0.38 kN.m My. Any LSH25 carriage mounts on any LSH25 rail of the same model and keeps its smoothness, preload and accuracy, so a correct-code replacement restores the original motion without re-shimming the machine.

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.
Component feeder slides on an electronics assembly machine are serviced module by module; a worn LSH25 block on the feeder carriage is replaced while the machine keeps its original rails and geometry.
The flap-folding head on a case erector travels on LSH25 rails and takes constant side loads; keeping a code-E square carriage as the machine's own spare keeps packaging throughput safe.
On a ball-screw driven positioning saddle, the two LSH25 carriages carry the moment from the screw offset; renewing both blocks together removes the rattle that shows up as backlash at the tool.
Because any LSH25 carriage fits any LSH25 rail of the same model and keeps its running character, this block is a true drop-in - provided the letter E on it matches the letter on your rail. Check the rail is sound first: if the raceway on the rail itself is pitted, a new carriage will not rescue it. On sizing, 26.9 kN dynamic and 0.44 kN.m MR cover a lot of mid-size machine duty, but measure the moment arm on any overhung mass before trusting the load figure alone. Lighter, tighter builds point down to AirTAC LRM (ratings unpublished - ask us); heavier cantilevers point up to a long LSH25 block at 0.58 kN.m MR or LSH30 at 0.66 kN.m; short stiff strokes point across to LGC.
Final checks before ordering: form (one carriage, rail not supplied), size against load and moment, square body in standard length, block count and rail length, accuracy and preload grade with the installation tolerance they demand, grease fitting (M6, correct for the size 20 to 35 band), and pairing code E. One fitting note: a tube fitting on the carriage side can sit flush with or above the top face, so clear it against your machine plate before mounting.
Quick checklist
Yes. Dynamic C 26.9 kN; static C0 39.4 kN; static moment ratings MR 0.44, MP 0.38, My 0.38 kN.m; normal grade running parallelism 12-37 um across the rail length bands. Fixing: M6 rail screws torqued to 1370 N.cm (steel), 921 N.cm (cast iron), 686 N.cm (aluminium); adjacent shoulder corner radius at most 1 mm. Grease: Mobilux EP2 pre-fill, 3.6 cm3 first charge, 1.1 cm3 per top-up, interval 100 km of travel or 3 to 6 months, whichever comes first - at a 300 mm stroke cycling once a second, that distance clocks up in about two weeks of continuous running.
It is not. You are buying the carriage only; the rail, its end caps and the mounting screws are separate line items. Every LSH25 rail and carriage carries a pairing letter - this one is E - and the two parts must share it. If you are replacing a worn block, copy the letter from the old carriage or from the rail; if you are building new, buy a complete LSH25 set instead and the matching is done for you.
