The AirTAC Airtac LSH Linear Guide Rail LSH30HN1X360S20AN-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.
One AirTAC LSH30 square carriage on a 360 mm rail, supplied as a complete matched set - that is LSH30HN1X360S20AN-M6. Size 30 means a 28 mm wide rail with M8 mounting holes and a 6.5 mm mounting shoulder, so measure your datum before drilling. Inside the block, four ball rows meet the X-pattern arc raceways at 45 degrees on each side, giving identical capacity upward, downward and sideways plus a measure of self-alignment against minor surface error.
Accuracy N and preload A make this the most forgiving and most economical grade in the range. Ratings per carriage: 37.4 kN dynamic, 55.0 kN static, moments 0.66/0.67/0.67 kN.m. With roughly 1.5 times as much static as dynamic capacity, the guide takes shock at stroke reversal well, but travel life is governed by the dynamic figure. The 360 mm rail leaves generous headroom below the 4030 mm maximum for this size, and an M6 nipple keeps greasing simple.

| 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. |
| N | Standard carriage. |
| 1X360 | 1 carriage on a 360 mm rail. |
| S… | End-hole offset from the rail end, in mm. |
| A | A — no preload — higher preload raises rigidity and tightens how flat the mounting surface must be. |

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 food packaging line uses this 360 mm stroke to swing a divert gate across a conveyor, where the single square carriage carries the gate weight through thousands of cycles between grease top-ups.
A quality cell moving a camera over 360 mm of extruded aluminium profile relies on N-grade accuracy to keep the field of view level along the whole stroke.
An engineering lab builds a fatigue test carriage on this set, taking advantage of the static margin - 55.0 kN against 37.4 kN dynamic - to survive shock loading at stroke reversal.
This is the workhorse configuration, so the sizing question is usually moment, not raw load. A single block on a 360 mm rail can tip under an overhung load; a second carriage on the same rail is the standard cure, and complete sets with up to ten blocks can be ordered. Going to the long LSH30 carriage lifts moment capacity from 0.66 to 0.88 kN.m - about 33 percent - against only 22 percent more dynamic rating, so for cantilevers the long block usually wins. Lighter compact duties may suit LRM, whose ratings we verify by enquiry since they are not published; short-travel high-stiffness jobs suit LGC rollers. Confirm form, size, carriage style and length, block count, rail length, accuracy, preload, fitting - and the pairing code for replacements.
Quick checklist
Catalogue values per carriage: dynamic C 37.4 kN; static C0 55.0 kN; moment limits MR 0.66, MP 0.67, My 0.67 kN.m. Normal accuracy grade running parallelism: 12 to 37 um according to rail length. Rail fixing: M8 screws, 3040 N.cm steel / 2010 cast iron / 1470 aluminium. Lubrication: 5.4 cm3 initial charge per carriage, 1.7 cm3 top-up, re-grease every 100 km travelled or every 3-6 months.
Yes - the box holds the 360 mm rail and one square carriage, factory-matched, pre-greased and interchangeable within LSH30. One block alone can tip under an overhung load, so keep the centre of gravity close to the rail or add a second carriage on the same rail; two blocks share the moment and resist tipping along the travel. If your cantilever is long, the long LSH30 carriage raises MR to 0.88 kN.m without changing the rail.
