The AirTAC Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12N1X395S10CP 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.
LRM12N1X395S10CP is the precision-grade version of the 395 mm LRM12 set: a 12 mm stainless-steel rail with one standard-length ball carriage, delivered assembled and greased, with a 10 mm end-hole offset and medium preload C. The plain top-mount format bolts down from above through the standard counterbores.
The P suffix is the tighter of the two LRM accuracy grades, so travel over the full 395 mm rail sits closer to nominal than an H set - a reason to pick this code for optical or measuring axes. Ball retention keeps the ISO 3290 G10 balls inside the carriage during handling, though the maker cautions that fitting the carriage at an angle can still drop balls, so take it slowly. Double-lip seals scrape oil and exclude dust, and an outer cover shields the seal strip and screws. The ambient limit is 80 C with 100 C transients. Load and moment ratings are not published for this series - request them per model and we will confirm the figures for your exact code.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC LRM catalogue. The catalogue does not publish load or moment ratings, running parallelism, speed limits, or carriage base material for LRM. We will not quote a figure we cannot source — ask us and we will confirm it for your model.

Rail and carriage(s) supplied together, matched as a set. If you are not sure which form you need, send us the machine or the original part number and we will confirm it before you order.
Serve as one axis of a small positioning stage; precision P grade keeps a 12 mm rail true over 395 mm of travel for light optical positioning work.
Carry a low-weight sensor head on a bench rig; medium preload C reduces play so the head returns to position between alignment shots.
Advance trays or reel edges a short pitch in a small assembly cell; the stainless rail and sealed carriage cope with everyday workshop dust.
Choose LSH when load is the deciding factor: it is the larger series whose catalogue states per-carriage dynamic, static and moment ratings you can size against, something LRM does not offer. Choose LGC when the travel is short and crossed-roller stiffness matters more than ball smoothness. For this code, confirm the checklist first: complete set rather than carriage only, 12 mm rail width, standard-length block, block count 1, 395 mm rail, preload C - the rigid choice, at the cost of installation sensitivity - precision P grade, top-mount rail. If you are instead replacing one part of an existing axis, work from the pairing letter on the old component. Send us your load case and we will return the confirmed rating for this exact model.
Quick checklist
Hard data: 12 mm stainless-steel rail, 395 mm long, one standard-length block, preload C (medium), precision P accuracy, top-mount rail, 10 mm end offset. Temperature ceiling is 80 C with transient peaks of 100 C. The grease interval is 100 km of travel or 3 to 6 months - on a fast 200 mm stroke the distance binds first, in roughly three weeks of continuous cycling - and grease volumes vary per model. The catalogue lists mounting-surface flatness rows without size labels, so treat them as a set. Dynamic load, static load and moment are not published for LRM; ask us and we confirm them for this exact code.
It is a complete set: the 395 mm stainless rail and one standard-length ball carriage arrive as one assembled, greased unit ready to bolt down from above. It is not a carriage-only code, so no pairing letter applies here. Be aware that LRM carriage-only spares are only thinly listed and most carriage replacements for this size are ordered specially, so plan any field swap around a dummy rail to avoid dropping balls.
