The AirTAC Airtac LSH Linear Guide Rail LSH25HN2X370S35BH-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 LSH25HN2X370S35BH-M6 is a complete LSH linear guide set: one 370 mm profile rail with two square (H) standard-length carriages already matched to it. Each carriage runs four rows of recirculating balls in X-shaped arc raceways set at a 45 degree contact angle, so the block carries load and moment equally in all four directions and absorbs slight mounting-surface misalignment instead of binding. Size 25 rails measure 23 mm wide, not 25 mm - lay the mounting surface out from the true width.
The B code means light preload, which raises rigidity at a cost: at 500 mm rail spacing the allowable height error tightens from 130 um to 85 um. Per carriage the ratings are 26.9 kN dynamic, 39.4 kN static, with moment limits of 0.44 / 0.38 / 0.38 kN.m for MR / MP / My. Two blocks on one rail double that and resist tipping along the travel.

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 370 mm travel slide carrying a CMM probe or camera over machined housings; light preload keeps the carriage from lagging on direction reversal so readings repeat.
Feeding and placing components on a small electronics assembly line, where the 23 mm wide rail keeps the gantry frame slim and preload B holds positioning under repeated stops.
A 370 mm focus or shuttle axis on a laser marking bench; the 26.9 kN per-block rating covers the head mass with margin, and self-alignment forgives a milled, not ground, base.
Light preload suits axes that reverse direction often - a short-stroke pick-and-place or a measuring slide - where lost motion matters more than mounting forgiveness. Before you settle on size 25, check the duty both ways: if the load is light and the space tight, an LRM miniature guide may do the job in a smaller envelope (its load ratings are not published, so we confirm them per enquiry); if the travel is short and you need crossed-roller rigidity rather than long recirculating travel, look at LGC instead. One size up to LSH30, or a long (L) carriage, is the move when a cantilevered load makes the moment rating, not C, the deciding number.
Match checklist: complete set, carriage only or rail only; size by load and moment together; carriage style and length; block count and rail length; accuracy grade and preload, remembering preload shrinks the installation tolerance; grease fitting; and the pairing code if you are replacing one part of a pair.
Quick checklist
Each standard-length square carriage is rated 26.9 kN basic dynamic (C) and 39.4 kN basic static (C0), with allowable static moments of 0.44 kN.m MR, 0.38 kN.m MP and 0.38 kN.m My; two carriages are fitted. Accuracy is normal grade, so running parallelism over the 370 mm rail falls in the 12 to 37 um band. Rails take M6 screws torqued to 1370 N.cm in steel, 921 N.cm in cast iron or 686 N.cm in aluminium. Each carriage ships pre-filled with 3.6 cm3 of Mobilux EP2; top up 1.1 cm3 every 100 km of travel or every 3 to 6 months.
Light preload removes clearance so the carriage resists deflection and lost motion, but the balls then sit under tension, and mounting error translates straight into ball load. At 500 mm rail spacing the allowable height difference between rails drops from 130 um with no preload to 85 um with B, and the parallelism allowance tightens from 30 um to 22 um. The trade-off scales with your actual spacing. If your base cannot be machined to that, order the A (no preload) version instead.
