Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12L1X470S10AHT
The AirTAC Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12L1X470S10AHT 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 LRM12L1X470S10AHT
LRM12L1X470S10AHT is a complete AirTAC LRM12 miniature linear guide set: one 12 mm wide stainless-steel rail, cut to 470 mm, carrying a single long-profile recirculating-ball carriage. The trailing T in the code marks a bottom-mount rail, fixed by screws driven from beneath the mounting surface, so the top face of the rail stays clear of fastener heads. The carriage ships fitted to the rail, pre-greased and ready to slide.
The set uses the LRM common-rail profile, ball-retention construction that stops the balls from spilling during handling, double-lip seals for oil scraping and dust exclusion, and an outer cover hiding the screws. The balls inside the carriage are ISO 3290 grade G10, Japanese made - a ball-quality grade, not a standard for the assembly. Ambient temperature must stay at or below 80 C, with brief peaks to 100 C, which matters near heated fixtures. LRM carries no published load or moment ratings; we confirm the figures for this exact model before you order, so send us the RFQ.

Where the Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12L1X470S10AHT Is Used
Compact XY inspection stage
A benchtop camera station indexing small PCB assemblies under a vision system: the 470 mm rail gives useful travel, and the bottom-mount fixing keeps the plate above the rail flat and unobstructed.
Optics bench translation stage
Moving a photodiode or lens along one axis on a laboratory optical table, where the long carriage resists the pitch of an overhanging sensor head without demanding a wide twin-rail layout.
High-cycle parts feeder shuttle
A small pick shuttle indexing parts into a test socket shift after shift; at 100 km between re-greases, a 200 mm stroke cycled once a second reaches the interval in roughly three weeks of continuous running.
Is the Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12L1X470S10AHT the Right Guide?
Size upward when the duty is real: LSH publishes per-carriage dynamic, static and moment ratings you can plug into a calculation, which LRM does not, so any substantial or cantilevered load belongs on LSH. Where travel is short and you need crossed-roller rigidity, LGC is the cross-grade choice. For this set, check: complete set with one long carriage, 12 mm rail, 470 mm rail length, preload A (none, easiest to install and most forgiving of surface finish), accuracy H, bottom-mount rail, and the load rating confirmed with us before ordering.
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 LRM12L1X470S10AHT FAQ
Rail width 12 mm, rail length 470 mm, one long carriage, preload A (none), accuracy grade H (high), bottom-mount rail fixing. Recommended screw torque: M2 - 58.8 N.cm into steel, 39.2 N.cm into cast iron, 29.4 N.cm into aluminium; M3 - 196, 127 and 98 N.cm respectively. Ambient temperature limit is 80 C with transient peaks to 100 C. Re-grease every 100 km of travel or every 3 to 6 months. AirTAC publishes no load or moment ratings for LRM, so we confirm those figures for this exact model through your RFQ.
The box holds the complete assembled pair: the 470 mm stainless-steel rail and the long carriage already fitted and pre-filled with Kyodo Yushi PS No. 2 grease - mounting screws are not included. Bottom-mount (the T in the code) means the rail is secured by screws driven from below the mounting surface, the right choice where you cannot reach fixings from above or need a clear top face. Work on a ground or finish-milled surface for rated accuracy.
