The AirTAC Airtac LSH Linear Guide Rail LSH25HN1X820S20BN-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.
Ordering LSH25HN1X820S20BN-M6 gets you matched parts rather than components to chase separately: a single standard-length square block plus an 820 mm rail, both size 25, both plain finish, with an M6 nipple for side greasing. Remember the rail measures 23 mm across, so a layout drawn from the size code alone would put the shoulder 2 mm out. The carriage rides on four ball rows whose 45 degree X raceway pattern shares load equally in every direction and lets the block self-align over small surface imperfections.
Because running parallelism is quoted over the rail length, this 820 mm rail sits within the N-grade band of 12 to 37 um; if the twin-rail machine needs tighter, H or P grade shortens the band at extra cost. Static capacity is 39.4 kN against 26.9 kN dynamic, close to the 1.5-to-1 ratio that runs through this range, and it is the dynamic figure that governs travel life - size on C, not on the bigger C0. Preload B raises rigidity at the price of installation latitude: 22 um parallel and 85 um height are the allowable errors at 500 mm spacing.

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 23 mm wide rail leaves more table width for clamping on a benchtop router, and one standard square block under the spindle plate keeps the 820 mm stroke honest even as cut loads reverse.
Carton pushers stall against jams, and that is a static case: the 39.4 kN C0 rating absorbs the stalled load, though travel-life sizing should still use the 26.9 kN dynamic figure.
Twin 820 mm rails under a servo feed table bolt into an aluminium bed at 686 N.cm per M6 screw - a figure worth writing on the assembly drawing so the shop does not overtorque and distort the rail.
When a load overhangs the carriage, compare spending before you spend: stepping from LSH20 to this size 25 lifts the MR moment rating from 0.27 to 0.44 kN.m, about 63 percent, for one dimensional change, which usually beats stacking extra hardware at the smaller size. The long-block version of this carriage raises moment further, to 0.58 kN.m MR, if the overhang is severe. Downward, LRM suits light duties in tight spaces but publishes no load ratings, so we confirm them by enquiry; across, LGC answers short-travel jobs where crossed rollers give the rigidity. Confirm before ordering: form is a complete set; size 25 by both load and moment; square standard block; one carriage; 820 mm rail, 20 mm end offset; N accuracy; preload B with its tighter mounting tolerances; M6 fitting.
Quick checklist
Each standard square carriage delivers 26.9 kN basic dynamic load and 39.4 kN basic static load, with moment caps of 0.44 kN.m (MR) and 0.38 kN.m (both MP and My). N-grade running parallelism falls between 12 and 37 um over the rail. Mounting: M6 bolts at 1370, 921 and 686 N.cm for steel, cast iron and aluminium beds. Grease: 3.6 cm3 initial fill and 1.1 cm3 refills of Mobilux EP2 or an equivalent, applied every 100 km travelled or every 3 to 6 months.
The box holds one 820 mm rail and one matched square carriage - a complete set, so no pairing code is needed. Because LSH carriages interchange within the same model, any matching LSH25 carriage can later replace this one on the same rail while keeping its smoothness, preload and accuracy; plain finish is standard, and black chrome is an order-only option.
