The AirTAC Airtac LSH Linear Guide Block LSH30BK-HL-P-C-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-P-C-M6 is one replacement block: a long square carriage at precision accuracy, greased through an M6 nipple and paired to rails carrying the C code. Nothing else arrives - the rail is a separate purchase. Its four rows of balls seat in 45 degree X-arc grooves with two contact points per ball, giving equal capacity radially, laterally and in overturn, and letting the carriage self-align to small datum errors. Remember that LSH30 rides on a 28 mm rail, not a 30 mm one.
The precision grade holds running parallelism within a 3 to 21 um band across the rail length range. Ratings per block: C 45.7 kN, C0 73.1 kN, MR 0.88 kN.m. The static figure sits near 1.6 times the dynamic value on this size - size on C for travel life, and check C0 only against shock and static overload.

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. |
| P | P — precision grade. |
| Pairing code | Rails and carriages must share a pairing code. Take it from the original part when replacing. |

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.
Rebuilding the part-feed stage of a semiconductor die bonder, where a precision-grade long carriage restores stage travel quality after years of duty cycles.
A hospital imaging service replacing the slide carriage on a CT patient couch, where smooth quiet travel matters and the couch frame already carries LSH30 rails.
An analytical instrument maker upgrading a liquid-handling deck axis with precision carriages to hold running parallelism inside the 3 to 21 um P-grade band.
Start from the numbers, not the size code. Dynamic C 45.7 kN and MR 0.88 kN.m are per-carriage figures; two blocks on one rail roughly double capacity and resist tipping along the direction of travel. Lighter duty with a smaller envelope points down to LRM, whose ratings we confirm on request since none are published. Short-stroke axes needing crossed-roller stiffness fit LGC better. If C is borderline, step up to LSH35, which we also list to order.
Checklist for a like-for-like swap: form (this is a carriage only), size by load and moment, square long carriage, P accuracy, M6 fitting, and the C pairing code matching the rail. Tighter grades reward flat, well-torqued mounting - whether the rail sits pulled hard against its datum face decides how much of that 3 to 21 um band you actually see.
Quick checklist
Each long block is rated C 45.7 kN dynamic and 73.1 kN static, with MR/MP/My of 0.88/0.91/0.91 kN.m. The P accuracy grade gives 3 to 21 um running parallelism depending on rail length. Mount the rail with M8 bolts at 3040/2010/1470 N.cm on steel/cast iron/aluminium. Lubrication is Mobilux EP2 or equivalent: 7.2 cm3 to charge, 2.2 cm3 to top up, on the 100 km or 3-to-6-month cycle.
Only if the rail carries the matching C pairing code - that letter is how separately ordered blocks and rails are matched, so quote the code from your original part when ordering. Within the LSH range, a carriage of a given model runs on a rail of the same model; nothing here implies use on another manufacturer's rail. No rail is supplied with this SKU - order a C-coded LSH30 rail separately or choose a complete-set code.
