Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12N1X295S10CHT
The AirTAC Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12N1X295S10CHT 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 LRM12N1X295S10CHT
Specify LRM12N1X295S10CHT when the rail has to be fixed from underneath: the trailing T code means the fixing holes are arranged for screws driven up through the base, leaving the rail top completely clear for tooling, covers or product. This is a complete set - one 295 mm stainless-steel rail, 12 mm wide, with end holes 10 mm in from each end, and a single standard-length recirculating-ball carriage shipped pre-greased on it.
Medium preload (code C) removes play under reversing motion, and on a bottom-mounted rail it pays to get the seating right before tightening: the catalogue requires a ground or finish-milled mounting face, and either side of the rail can serve as the datum. The balls recirculating in the carriage are Japanese-made ISO 3290 G10 grade; a double-lip seal holds the Kyodo Yushi PS No. 2 factory grease in place, and the outer cover keeps chips off the seal strip. Ambient temperature must stay at or below 80 C, with brief peaks to 100 C. LRM has no published load or moment ratings, so confirm the figures for this model with us before you commit the design.

Where the Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12N1X295S10CHT Is Used
Lead-forming fixture slide
Feeding component bodies into a small lead-forming die on a bench press, with the bottom-mounted rail leaving the die area unobstructed from above.
Workshop height gauge rebuild
Replacing worn slides in a rebuilt small height gauge or measuring stop, where a stiff medium-preloaded carriage restores repeatable indication.
Vial sorting shuttle
A shuttle stepping vials between lanes on a compact pharmaceutical sorting bench, cycling continuously between grease intervals.
Is the Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12N1X295S10CHT the Right Guide?
If the load is heavy or hangs off a lever arm, move up to LSH, whose published per-carriage dynamic, static and moment ratings make sizing possible - something LRM cannot offer. If travel is short and stiffness is everything, look at LGC's crossed-roller guides. For this SKU, verify: form (complete set), rail width 12 mm, standard carriage length, one carriage, 295 mm rail, preload C, accuracy H, bottom-mount fixing, and a confirmed load rating from us before the design is frozen. Maintenance is worth planning too: re-greasing every 100 km sounds generous, but a 200 mm stroke cycling once per second covers that distance in roughly three weeks of continuous running, so the distance binds well before the calendar's 3 to 6 months.
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 LRM12N1X295S10CHT FAQ
The configuration: 12 mm rail width, 295 mm rail length, end holes 10 mm from each end, a single standard-length carriage, medium preload (C), high accuracy (H) and bottom-mount fixing. Torques are 58.8 N.cm for M2 screws into steel (39.2 cast iron, 29.4 aluminium) and 196 N.cm for M3 into steel (127 cast iron, 98 aluminium). The environment must stay at or below 80 C with peaks no higher than 100 C, and grease is renewed every 100 km of travel or every 3 to 6 months. Load and moment ratings are not published for LRM, so ask us and we confirm them for this exact model.
You get one complete assembly: a 295 mm stainless rail plus one standard carriage, pre-greased and ready to mount. The trailing T changes the mounting, not the contents - the fixing holes are arranged for screws coming up through the base, so nothing protrudes above the rail. Not supplied: mounting screws and grease for topping up. LRM carriages share one rail profile, so a long carriage would also fit this rail if you ever re-spec; spare carriages alone are a special order for us, as our carriage-only stock is very small.
