A guiding device of an apparatus for producing sanitary articles for applying at least one thread onto a substrate intended to produce said sanitary articles, comprising:
- a first body movable along a linear direction and configured to guide said thread,
- at least one second body at a fixed distance with respect to said first body,
- a spacer assembly configured to space said first body apart from said at least one second body by means of a magnetic force, wherein said spacer assembly comprises at least one air dispenser configured to dispense air so as to hinder access and/or deposition of contaminants between said first body and said at least one second body;
- and
- a magnetic movement assembly associated with said first body and with the at least one second body for moving said first body along said linear direction by means of another magnetic force.
