The AirTAC Airtac LSH Linear Guide Rail LSH30BK-F2L-H-B-M6 is a standard-type profile linear guide on a 28 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 is the carriage only: one AirTAC LSH30 bottom-flange block, F2 style with the long body, high accuracy, M6 grease fitting and pairing code B. NO RAIL IS INCLUDED and this code contains no rail segment - order a mating LSH30 rail carrying the same pairing letter, or read the letter off the part you are replacing. The block runs on four rows of recirculating balls seated in X-shaped arc raceways cut at 45 degrees, two contact points per ball, so it carries equal load up, down and sideways and absorbs slight mounting-surface error inside itself instead of binding. Despite the 30 in the code, the rail it rides on is 28 mm wide.
Because the body is the long version, its moment ratings climb faster than its load ratings: dynamic rating goes from 37.4 kN on the standard block to 45.7 kN, about 22 percent, while MR rises from 0.66 to 0.88 kN.m, about 33 percent. Static rating is 73.1 kN. For a cantilevered or overhung load, MR is usually the figure that decides whether the block survives, so the long body earns its extra length there first.

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 bridge saw trimming granite slabs carries its cutting head on a cantilevered arm, so MR decides block survival. Swapping in this long F2 body lifts moment capacity from 0.66 to 0.88 kN.m over the standard block.
End-of-arm tooling on a case palletizer tips the carriage outward on every lift. A long-body block with 0.88 kN.m MR and a bottom flange keeps the bolt line under the load path.
When building a camera gantry from profile, bolting the F2 flange from below leaves the block's top face free for the camera bracket and cable chain.
Work through the checklist in order. Form: this is a carriage only, so confirm you need a replacement block and not a complete set. Size: check load AND moment - if the duty is light and the envelope tight, LRM may do the job in a smaller footprint, though its load ratings are not published and we will confirm them with you; if MR governs and this long F2 body still falls short, stepping up a size buys more moment than adding another carriage. Travel character: for short strokes needing crossed-roller rigidity rather than long recirculating travel, ask about LGC instead. Then fix carriage style (F2 bottom flange here), length (long), count, rail length, accuracy grade (H), grease fitting (M6, correct for size 30) and, because you are buying a part, the pairing code - it must match the rail.
Quick checklist
Per carriage: basic dynamic load rating C 45.7 kN, basic static C0 73.1 kN, allowable static moments MR 0.88, MP 0.91, My 0.91 kN.m (long body; the standard LSH30 block is 37.4 kN, 55.0 kN and 0.66 / 0.67 / 0.67 kN.m). High accuracy grade running parallelism falls in a 7 to 28 um band across the rail-length range. The mating LSH30 rail is 28 mm wide and uses M8 mounting screws at 3040 N.cm in steel, 2010 in cast iron, 1470 in aluminium. Grease: first charge 7.2 cm3, top-up 2.2 cm3, re-grease every 100 km of travel or every 3 to 6 months.
No rail is included. The BK in the code marks this as a carriage only - one long F2 block, high accuracy, M6 fitting. There is no rail segment in the part number and no preload position either. AirTAC LSH carriages and rails carry a pairing letter, and this block must be fitted to an LSH30 rail of the same model bearing the letter B to preserve its smoothness, preload and accuracy. If you are replacing an old block, copy the letter from its code; if it is unreadable, send us the code and we will match it.
