SKF LPAR series linear units are guide assemblies with carriage and rail designed for precise, repeatable linear motion. They are used in machine axes, gantries and positioning systems where rigidity and low friction are required. MR Accesorios Industriales carries this line as an official brand, with technical advice to select the right size according to the load and travel of each application.
The series designation is read in blocks: the letters identify the family and the number that follows indicates the size of the unit. In the examples LPAR 12, LPAR 16, LPAR 20, LPAR 25, LPAR 30 and LPAR 50, that number increases from smaller to larger and defines the load capacity and the rail width. Before requesting a quote, it is best to have on hand the complete code engraved on the carriage or on the label of the assembly.
These units are used in industrial automation, machine tools, packaging equipment, material handling and test benches. In Argentina they appear in production lines, robotic cells and positioning tables where stable guidance along the entire travel is sought. They are also chosen in retrofits of existing equipment when a sliding system needs to be replaced with a rolling one.
To select correctly, take into account the load per carriage, the tilting moment, the length and parallelism of the rails, and the working environment. In areas with dust or chips, it is advisable to provide protections and adequate lubrication; in applications with a high cycle frequency, check the clearance and alignment before mounting. A poorly seated rail shortens the life of the assembly even if the unit is the right one.
Among brands, linear units are compared by size, carriage type, load capacity and mounting method. There is no universal equivalence table: two similar codes can differ in height, holes or preload. If you are replacing an existing assembly, send us the rail and carriage measurements, or the complete code, and we verify interchangeability before quoting.
If you already have the LPAR code on hand, write to us on WhatsApp and we'll send you the quote. At MR Accesorios Industriales we have more than 80 years in the trade and can guide you on the size, protections and lubrication for your application.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the number in LPAR 20 or LPAR 30 mean?
- The number indicates the size of the unit within the series: the higher the number, the larger the rail section and load capacity. That is why LPAR 20 and LPAR 30 are not interchangeable with each other. To confirm the size of your equipment, compare the code engraved on the carriage with the rail measurement.
- How do I request a quote for an LPAR unit?
- Send by WhatsApp the complete code shown on the carriage or on the label, for example LPAR 25. If you don't have it, send the rail and carriage measurements and a photo of the mounted assembly. With that data we verify the variant and send you the quote.
- Can a linear unit from another brand be replaced by an SKF LPAR?
- Sometimes yes, but it is not decided by nominal size alone. Height, distance between holes, carriage type and preload must be compared. Send the measurements of the old assembly and the code if you have it; at MR we check compatibility before quoting and avoid returns due to mounting issues.
