The AirTAC Airtac LSH Linear Guide Rail LSH25F1N2X3940T800AN-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.
The LSH25F1N2X3940T800AN-M6 is a complete size 25 AirTAC LSH guide delivered as a spliced rail: a 3940 mm section factory-joined to an 800 mm section at the T mark, giving 4740 mm of travel in total. Splicing is how the series reaches lengths beyond the 4040 mm single-piece maximum for this size. Two standard-length F1 top-flange carriages ride the rail, each with an M6 nipple and its bolt caps. Four rows of recirculating balls sit in X-crossed 45 degree arc raceways, so each block carries the same load radially in any direction and self-aligns to swallow small datum errors.
Each carriage is rated 26.9 kN dynamic C, 39.4 kN static C0 and 0.44 / 0.38 / 0.38 kN.m MR / MP / My, and the two blocks together resist tipping along nearly five metres of travel. Grade N accuracy holds running parallelism in the 12-37 um band. A practical note for a rail this long: every bolt hole needs its plastic cap driven home - seat it in the counterbore, cover with a flat plate, tap vertically with a plastic mallet and wipe the rail - because a missing or protruding cap is the classic route for swarf into the ball circuit.

Rail and carriage(s) supplied together, matched as a set. 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 travelling cut-off saw on an extrusion line follows the product over a long stroke; the spliced 4740 mm rail gives one continuous reference where a single piece would exceed the 4040 mm length limit.
A moulding-shop gantry shuttling parts between stations runs on the two F1 blocks; grease lubrication supports travel up to 60 m/min, and the 100 km regrease interval can be watched on the machine hour-meter.
A scanner bridge checking flatness across full sheet goods uses the N-grade 12-37 um parallelism band as its travel straightness reference over the whole span.
Order the mounting direction and handling first: a 4740 mm spliced rail needs a straight, supported base along its full run, and any section joint should sit over a support if the frame layout allows. For compact machines with light duty, LRM is the smaller alternative - its load ratings are not published, so we confirm them for your case. If a cantilevered load governs, a long LSH25 carriage lifts MR to 0.58 kN.m (about 32 percent, against a 22 percent rise in dynamic rating) or step up to LSH30 at 0.66 kN.m. Short-travel stages wanting crossed-roller stiffness belong on LGC instead. Before ordering, check: complete set form, size against load and moment, F1 flange, standard block, two blocks, spliced 3940+800 mm rail, N accuracy, preload A against your achievable mounting tolerance, M6 fitting.
Quick checklist
Full figures for this size 25, standard-length carriage: dynamic load rating C 26.9 kN; static C0 39.4 kN; allowable moments MR 0.44 kN.m, MP 0.38 kN.m, My 0.38 kN.m. Accuracy N means running parallelism within 12-37 um depending on position. Fixing: M6 screws at 1370 N.cm on steel, 921 on cast iron, 686 on aluminium. Per carriage, lubrication is 3.6 cm3 Mobilux EP2 at first charge and 1.1 cm3 top-ups every 100 km of travel or every 3 to 6 months.
Everything that makes a working guide is in this order: the 4740 mm spliced rail (3940 mm plus 800 mm sections joined at the factory T joint), two F1 top-flange carriages with M6 nipples, and the plastic caps for the mounting holes. It is not a carriage-only or rail-only part. If you later need a spare block, order carriage-only by the pairing code marked on the original parts - that code ties a carriage to its rail's accuracy and preload behaviour; without it a replacement may not run identically. On a spliced rail, record which section each block runs over as well.
