Thk SHS25LC1SSGKBLO Linear Motion Guide Block

Product Description

The THK SHS25LC1SSGKBLO is a 4-way load caged ball linear motion guide block designed for precision linear motion applications. Part of the THK SHS series, this block accepts load in four directions - radial, reverse radial, and both lateral directions - making it suitable for demanding positioning and traversing systems. It delivers a dynamic load capacity of 36.8 kN and a static load rating of 64.7 kN. The caged ball design reduces ball-to-ball contact friction, improving travel smoothness and extending service life. Licensed HVAC, industrial automation, and mechanical systems technicians commonly install this type of linear guide component in machine tool, conveyor, and precision motion assemblies.

This guide block is used in linear motion guide systems across industrial automation, machine tool, and precision positioning equipment. It is suited for both horizontal and vertical rail orientations where consistent load capacity and dimensional accuracy are required. With a 36-inch high assembly specification, it fits applications where extended vertical travel is needed. The M8 x 6.8 mounting hole pattern and defined transverse and lateral hole spacing allow for straightforward integration into standard machine frames and sub-plates.

Key Features

• 4-way load rating supports radial, reverse radial, and lateral load directions
• Caged ball retainer reduces friction and ball-to-ball wear for longer service life
• Dynamic load capacity of 36.8 kN for high-cycle motion applications
• Static load rating of 64.7 kN for rigid, high-force positioning
• M8 x 6.8 mounting holes with 45 mm transverse and 57 mm lateral hole spacing
• 23.5 mm overhang dimension for precise rail engagement geometry

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for THK SHS25 series linear motion guide rails in industrial motion control systems.

Installation Notes

Installation of linear guide blocks is typically performed by mechanical technicians or industrial maintenance personnel. De-energize and lock out all machine power before handling any linear motion components. Mounting surfaces should be clean, flat, and free of burrs to ensure proper seating and alignment. Follow the machine manufacturer torque and alignment procedures using the specified fastener size for the M8 hole pattern.
