The AirTAC Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12N1X195S10APT 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.
The LRM12N1X195S10APT combines the two specialist choices of this series in one part number: accuracy grade P for precision travel, and a T-suffix rail threaded for bottom-mounting, so fixings are driven from below and the working surface above stays uninterrupted. The set comprises a 195 mm rail in 12 mm wide stainless steel and one factory-fitted standard-length recirculating-ball carriage, pre-greased and assembled.
A note on budgeting: across our stocked range the price spread runs from roughly 66 to 831 dollars while the rail width changes only between 12 and 15 mm - so what you pay is driven overwhelmingly by rail length and carriage count, not by the width column. This 195 mm, single-carriage set sits comfortably at the economical end. The carriage rolls on ISO 3290 G10 Japanese balls in a retained circuit, sealed by a double lip and shielded by an outer cover. Ambient must not exceed 80 C, peaking at 100 C briefly. AirTAC publishes no load or moment ratings for LRM, so we verify the figures for this specific configuration once you send an RFQ.

Validating magnetic scale read heads calls for travel whose repeatability you can trust; the P grade plus a bottom-mounted rail leaves the top free for the scale strip and read head wiring.
During a maintenance rebuild of a servo-driven label applicator, fitting this complete P-grade set refreshes the whole guide in one step - no separate carriage ordering, no dummy-rail juggling during assembly.
A feeder that indexes blister packs in light packaging machinery moves small, predictable loads; the standard carriage keeps the head compact and the ball-retention design survives routine handling.
This SKU suits a precision fixture that must be bolted from underneath, with light loads and repeatability on the specification. If the load is substantial or cantilevered, size against LSH instead - its published per-carriage dynamic, static and moment ratings make verification straightforward in a way LRM cannot, since LRM ratings are confirmed model by model. Short travel demanding crossed-roller rigidity belongs with LGC. Work the checklist: complete set (rail included), rail width 12 mm, standard carriage, one carriage, 195 mm rail length, preload A (none - choose B or C if you need a firmer feel, accepting more drag and more sensitive mounting), accuracy P, bottom-mount direction, and a load rating confirmed with us before ordering.
Quick checklist
Stay with this set when the job is light-duty, precision positioning in a 12 mm envelope - the P grade, preload A and 195 mm bottom-mount rail cover repeatability and clean-surface mounting. Move to LSH when the load is heavy, offset or cantilevered: LSH publishes basic dynamic, static and moment ratings per carriage, so you can calculate margins directly, whereas LRM has no published ratings and we confirm them per model. For short travel where crossed-roller rigidity beats ball circulation, LGC is the alternative. Either way, confirm the load rating with us before committing.
Rail width 12 mm, stainless steel; rail length 195 mm; one standard-length carriage; preload A (none); accuracy P (precision); bottom-mount rail (T suffix). Torque the screws correctly: M2 - 58.8 N.cm into steel, 39.2 into cast iron, 29.4 into aluminium; M3 - 196, 127 and 98 N.cm. 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. Load and moment ratings, running parallelism and speed limits are not published for LRM - send an RFQ and we will confirm the load rating for this exact configuration.
