Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12L1X295S10AP
The AirTAC Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12L1X295S10AP is a miniature linear guide on a 12 mm stainless-steel rail with recirculating-ball carriage. It is the small end of the range, for light-duty precision positioning in a tight envelope — compact stages, small pick-and-place heads and inspection fixtures.

About the Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12L1X295S10AP
LRM12L1X295S10AP is a complete miniature linear guide from AirTAC's LRM range: a 295 mm stainless-steel rail, 12 mm wide, carrying one long recirculating-ball carriage with no preload (code A) and precision accuracy grade P, drilled for conventional top-mounting. Everything needed for the guide function arrives in this one SKU.
Grade P is the reason to pick this code over the H version: if your drawing tolerances on straightness of travel are tighter than high accuracy covers, precision is the grade to specify, and it costs nothing in availability here. The long carriage lengthens the bearing span and spreads contact across more recirculating balls, useful when a single-carriage stage could rock. AirTAC equips the LRM with a double-lip seal that scrapes oil back and excludes dust, an outer cover protecting the seal strip and hiding the screws, and ball retention so the ISO 3290 G10 Japanese balls stay captive during handling. Keep the ambient temperature under 80 C, with transients to 100 C. One caution: no load or moment figures are published for LRM. Tell us the model and the duty, and we will confirm the rating before you order - the RFQ is the fast route.

Where the Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12L1X295S10AP Is Used
Fiducial alignment stage in a PCB router
Precision grade P keeps the board-holding slide tracking true along the 295 mm rail so the vision system finds its fiducials without re-teaching between batches.
Wire-bond head trim slide
A light, unpreloaded long carriage lets the bond head advance smoothly on a 12 mm rail, where stick-slip would show up as placement scatter.
Optical bench detector traverse
The detector on a small optical test bench is nudged along the stainless rail by hand or microscrew; grade P limits lateral wander of the beam spot over the stroke.
Is the Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12L1X295S10AP the Right Guide?
Size honestly: LRM carries no published load table, so for a substantial or cantilevered load move up to LSH, whose catalogue gives per-carriage dynamic, static and moment ratings you can calculate against. For short travel where crossed-roller rigidity matters more than long stroke, LGC is the cross-series alternative. Before ordering this code, run the checklist: complete set, 12 mm rail, long carriage, one carriage, 295 mm rail length, preload A (smoother and cheaper to install, but the least stiff choice), accuracy P, top-mount holes, and confirm the load rating with us first.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Complete set, carriage only, or rail only?
- ✓ Load and moment confirmed with us
- ✓ Travel length and mounting space
- ✓ Accuracy grade and preload
- ✓ Mounting surface ground or finish-milled
- ✓ Pairing code, if replacing a part
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Mounting surface must be ground or finish-milled.
- check Torque the rail screws per the recommended figures, in sequence.
- check Keep the mounting corner radius inside the stated R maximum.
- check Do not angle the carriage onto the rail; balls can drop out.
- check Drive the supplied bolt caps into the mounting holes.
- check Re-grease every 100 km of travel or every 3–6 months.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12L1X295S10AP FAQ
Complete set with one 12 mm wide stainless rail, 295 mm long, one long carriage, preload A (none), accuracy grade P (precision), top-mount rail. Install into a ground or finish-milled surface; M2 screws take 58.8 N.cm into steel, 39.2 N.cm into cast iron, 29.4 N.cm into aluminium, and M3 screws take 196 / 127 / 98 N.cm in the same order. Ambient temperature limit is 80 C with peaks to 100 C. Re-lubricate every 100 km of travel or every 3 to 6 months. Load and moment ratings are not published for LRM - we confirm them for your exact model before ordering.
Choose LRM when the envelope is tight, the duty is light and smooth miniature travel matters most - this 12 mm rail with a long carriage fits machines where a full-size guide cannot. Choose LSH when the load is heavy or overhung, because LSH publishes dynamic, static and moment ratings per carriage that you can plug into a calculation, which LRM does not. If you are unsure which side your application falls on, send the load, speed and stroke details with your RFQ and we will confirm the LRM rating for this model or recommend the larger series.
