Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12L2X295S10CPT
The AirTAC Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12L2X295S10CPT is a miniature linear guide on a 12 mm stainless-steel rail with recirculating-ball carriages. 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 LRM12L2X295S10CPT
The trailing T in LRM12L2X295S10CPT marks a bottom-mount rail: the fixing holes sit in the rail's base so the guide bolts on from beneath, which suits frames where the screw heads are unreachable from above - a sealed machine base or a slotted table being typical cases. The set pairs a 12 mm wide stainless-steel rail, 295 mm long, with two long recirculating-ball carriages and a 10 mm end-hole offset.
Medium preload C is the rigid, less forgiving choice on this series: it takes up clearance firmly for a defined, no-play feel, but it demands a properly prepared seat - ground or finish-milled surfaces - and tolerates misalignment less readily than a lighter grade. The recirculating balls are Japanese-made to ISO 3290 G10 for roundness and wear, a double-lip seal scrapes grease and excludes dust, and an outer cover keeps the seal strip clear of larger debris. Keep ambient temperature at or below 80 C, peaks to 100 C. AirTAC publishes no load or moment figures for LRM; tell us the load case on the RFQ and we confirm the ratings for this configuration.

Where the Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12L2X295S10CPT Is Used
Optics bench carrier
A carrier sliding along a bench-mounted optics rail gains from medium preload C removing play, keeping a lens or mirror steady between adjustments.
Small pick-and-place head
A compact pick-and-place head on a 295 mm axis keeps its grip path predictable when two long carriages hold the bracket square to the rail.
Electronics assembly cell
Inside a benchtop electronics assembly cell, the bottom-mount rail disappears into the frame, leaving the working surface clear for fixtures and parts.
Is the Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12L2X295S10CPT the Right Guide?
Two long carriages sharing one rail resist tipping along the direction of travel better than a single block, and specifying the long body costs nothing in availability here - long carriages are held as deeply as standard ones (512 against 475 across the stocked range). If the load is heavy, offset or cantilevered, move up to LSH: its catalogue lists per-carriage dynamic, static and moment ratings, the numbers LRM deliberately omits. For short, rigid strokes where crossed rollers outperform balls, LGC is the cross-series alternative. Confirm the whole spec before committing: complete set with two long blocks, 12 mm rail, 295 mm length, medium preload C, precision P accuracy, bottom-mount fixing, plus the load rating - which we verify per model when you enquire.
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 LRM12L2X295S10CPT FAQ
The published facts: 12 mm rail width, 295 mm rail length, two long carriages, 10 mm end-hole offset, preload C (medium), accuracy P (precision), bottom-mount rail. Screw torques per the catalogue are 58.8 N.cm into steel for M2 (39.2 cast iron, 29.4 aluminium) and 196 N.cm into steel for M3 (127 cast iron, 98 aluminium). The ambient limit is 80 C with transient peaks to 100 C; re-grease with Kyodo Yushi PS No. 2 every 100 km of travel or every 3 to 6 months. Basic dynamic, static and moment ratings are not published for LRM - we confirm them for this exact model on request.
Choose LRM when the envelope is tight and the duty is light-precision: a 12 mm rail, long carriages and precision P accuracy at a fraction of the cross-section of LSH. Choose LSH when the load is substantial or hangs on a cantilever, because LSH publishes per-carriage dynamic, static and moment ratings you can plug into a calculation, while LRM leaves those to be confirmed per model. If the travel is short and rigidity under vibration matters more than stroke, crossed-roller LGC is the third option to weigh. Send us the load case either way and we will verify the numbers.
