Notes
- HIWIN HG is the heavy-load square-block profile rail family (HGR rail, HGH square block, HGW flange block); sizes 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35 are the rail size. Dimension letters follow HIWIN's catalog: W / WR block and rail width; H / HR block and rail height (H from the rail bottom to the block top); H1 clearance under the block; N distance from the rail side to the block side; B x C the four block holes (B across the rail, C along it); L1 body length, L length with end caps; K1 / K2 grease nipple and end-cap details; G grease nipple; M x l thread and depth; T block hole depth; rail D x h x d the counterbore diameter, depth and through hole; P hole pitch; E end distance from the rail end to the first hole.
- Numbers: every HGH CA, HGR_R and the HGW 15 / 30 / 35 value is printed identically in three HIWIN catalog documents (the HG catalog hosted by Letromec, catalogue GW-10-1-EN-1701-K hosted by Ignera, and a HIWIN DE catalogue hosted by Unitech). HGW20CC and HGW25CC are complete in the Letromec catalog only; the other two documents print their C, L1, L, K1 and (as shared with the SC rows) the other columns consistently. Rail bolt length differs by edition: M4 x 16, M5 x 16, M6 x 20, M8 x 25, M8 x 25 (Letromec, Ignera) against M4 x 20, M5 x 20, M6 x 25, M8 x 30, M8 x 35 (Unitech); both are shown. HGH30CA and HGW30CC length L is 97.4 mm for the standard block and 98.8 mm for the steel-deflector /SE version. The HGR_T (tapped from below) rows: S, h, P, E and weight are from the Letromec catalog only.
- End distance: E = 20 mm is the standard end distance for all sizes; the Ignera catalog lists the allowed E1 / E2 range as 6 to 54 (15), 7 to 53 (20), 8 to 52 (25) and 9 to 71 (30 and 35), with E no greater than half the pitch for cut rails. Pitch P is 60 mm for sizes 15 to 25 and 80 mm for 30 and 35. Maximum single rail length 4000 mm.
- Numbers only, no CAD files: the catalog prints the rail and block envelope and the hole pattern, but not the rail groove or block cross-section, so a box-with-holes would not be the part. For the real STEP of the rail and block use HIWIN's own CAD configurator (linked under sources). Dimensions are nominal catalog values; accuracy class (N, H, P, SP, UP) and preload change tolerances, not these nominal sizes.
- Left out: HGH / HGW SA, HA, HB, HC, SC types and the HGL / HGW-CB variants (not read), HG 45 and 55, load ratings, moment capacity and weights of blocks, the QH / QW series.

15 mm wide, 15 mm high, holes every 60 mm (P) with the first at 20 mm from the end (E), counterbore 7.5 x 5.3 deep, through hole 4.5, for M4 bolts.
What are the mounting holes of an HGH15CA block?
Four M4 x 5 holes, 26 mm across (B) by 26 mm along (C); block width 34, height 28 (rail bottom to block top), length 61.4.
What is the hole pitch of HGR30 and HGR35?
80 mm, first hole at 20 mm; sizes 15, 20 and 25 are on 60 mm.
What is the difference between HGH and HGW?
HGH is the narrow square block with four tapped holes in the top; HGW is the wide flange block (47 mm for size 15) with holes through the flange and a lower height (24 mm for size 15).
Can I download a STEP file?
Not here: the catalog prints envelopes only; HIWIN's CAD configurator (linked) gives the real rail and block.
