THK SHS35LCSSC1 - Linear Guide Carriage for SHS35 Series

Features & Technical Highlights

The THK SHS35LCSSC1 linear guide carriage is a premium component from the globally recognised SHS series, engineered for high performance in demanding industrial environments. With a 35 mm rail size, the “LC” long-block series provides enhanced rated load capacity, while the “SSC1” designation indicates a version optimised for compact height and superior rigidity. The carriage features a four-row ball-recirculating design oriented at 45°, delivering uniform load rating in radial, reverse-radial and lateral directions - the hallmark “4-way equal load” capability of the SHS family.
Its self-adjustment feature absorbs minor mounting misalignments, enabling smooth linear motion even under preload. This makes it a strong choice for systems where precision and durability matter.

Industrial Applications & Business Benefits

Designed for high-end industrial applications, the SHS35LCSSC1 performs reliably in CNC machining centres, automated production lines, robotics, logistics equipment and long-travel gantries. Its construction reduces friction and wear, supports sustained high-speed operation and lowers total cost of ownership. The unit supports both retrofits and new installations, fitting standard SHS 35 rails and enabling quick integration as a bearing unit in linear systems. Keywords often searched by professionals include “linear guide carriage 35mm”, “THK SHS35 LC”, “SHS35LCSSC1 block”, “industrial linear guide 35 mm”.
Business advantages include:

• High durability and low maintenance thanks to robust internal geometry and precision engineering.

• Ready-to-install unit for minimised machine downtime and fast deployment.

• Versatile compatibility across different machine types owing to standard 35 mm size and global availability.

• Enhanced system performance - lower friction, higher rigidity and consistent motion translate into better output quality.

Why Choose SHS35LCSSC1 for Your Facility?

Opting for the SHS35LCSSC1 delivers measurable improvements in equipment reliability and process stability:

• Uniform load capability in four directions ensures predictable performance in multi-axis systems.

• Self-adjusting design mitigates misalignment issues - beneficial for large machines or less-than-ideal mounting conditions.

• Standardised SHS platform - widespread global support and part availability reduce procurement risk.

• Scalable solution - fits alongside other SHS sizes, aiding modular design and spares management.

FAQ

Q: What rail size does the SHS35LCSSC1 fit?
A: It is engineered for the SHS 35 series rail size, meaning a 35 mm profile width, offering compatibility with standard LM rails labelled “35”.
Q: Does the carriage handle loads in multiple directions?
A: Yes. Thanks to the four-row ball design angled at 45°, the SHS35LCSSC1 provides 4-way equal load capacity - radial, reverse-radial and lateral loads are uniformly supported. THK+1
Q: Is misalignment a concern when installing this carriage?
A: No. The SHS35LCSSC1 includes a self-adjustment capability that compensates minor mounting deviations, enabling smooth and accurate linear motion. THK+1
Q: What types of machines use this component?
A: Typical applications include CNC machines, conveyance systems, robot axes, large format routers and precision inspection equipment, where high rigidity and smooth motion are vital.
Q: Are there different variants of SHS35 carriages?
A: Yes. Variants include standard (C), long-block (LC), compact width (V) and others. The LC variant offers higher load capacity while maintaining the same footprint.
