The AirTAC Airtac LSH Linear Guide Rail LSH30BK-HL-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.
The LSH30BK-HL-H-B-M6 is a carriage only - one long square (H) block for AirTAC's LSH30 profile rail, supplied with no rail section whatsoever. Four rows of recirculating balls sit in X-shaped 45 degree arc raceways with two contact points per ball, so the block carries equal load up, down and sideways and absorbs slight mounting-surface error instead of binding. One warning worth reading twice: size 30 runs on a rail 28 mm wide, because the 30 in the code is a series number, not a width.
As the L (long) body, it takes the size 30 long figures: 45.7 kN dynamic (C) and 73.1 kN static (C0) per carriage, with allowable static moments of 0.88, 0.91 and 0.91 kN.m around MR, MP and My. The long body lifts MR roughly 33 percent over the standard block while dynamic rating rises only about 22 percent, so on a cantilevered head the extra length earns its keep. Accuracy grade is H, and the pairing code is B - the rail you fit must be ordered with the same letter.

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.
| LSH | LSH Series Linear Guide. |
|---|---|
| 30 | Size code — note the rail is 28 mm wide, not 30 mm. |

| H / F1 / F2 / F3 | Carriage style: square, or flange mounted from the top, bottom, or both. |
| L | Long carriage. |

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.
Replacing the long square carriages that carry an overhung drilling and milling head across a fabricated gantry, where the cantilevered load makes MR, not C, the deciding figure.
A single long carriage under the pusher plate of a case-palletising cell absorbs the side thrust of each sweep while keeping the plate square to the layer.
A small fabricator upgrading a home-built CNC router to size 30 rail buys rails and blocks separately; this long block goes under the gantry's moving throat plate.
Size by both load and moment. Down-sizing: if the duty is light and the envelope tight, the LRM roller guide is the smaller alternative, but AirTAC does not publish its load ratings, so we will confirm them against your duty before you order. Up-sizing: when the moment governs, a long carriage like this one, or a move to LSH35 (available to order), lifts moment capacity faster than adding a second standard block. Across: for short travel where crossed-roller rigidity matters more than long recirculating life, LGC is the crossover choice. Final checklist: confirm the form (this is carriage only), size against load AND moment, carriage style and length, block count and rail length, accuracy grade and preload with their installation-tolerance cost, grease fitting, and - because you are buying a part, not a set - the pairing code taken from the existing rail.
Quick checklist
Dynamic rating C 45.7 kN and static rating C0 73.1 kN per carriage; allowable static moments MR 0.88, MP 0.91 and My 0.91 kN.m; accuracy grade H with a running parallelism band of 7 to 28 um across the rail length range; the mating LSH30 rail bolts down with M8 screws at 3040 N.cm in steel, 2010 N.cm in cast iron or 1470 N.cm in aluminium; grease charge is 7.2 cm3 per long carriage, topped up with 2.2 cm3 every 100 km of travel or every 3 to 6 months, using Mobilux EP2 or an equivalent.
No - this SKU is the carriage alone; the LSH30 rail is a separate purchase. AirTAC marks each rail and carriage with a pairing letter, and this block carries code B, so the rail you fit it to must be an LSH30 rail ordered with the same letter. If you are replacing a worn block, read the letter off the original rail's code before ordering.
