The AirTAC Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12N1X95S10CH 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.
This is the LRM12N1X95S10CH, a ready-to-fit miniature linear guide: one 95 mm stainless-steel rail, 12 mm wide, carrying a single standard-length ball carriage. The C in the preload position means medium preload - the firmest of the three grades offered on this series - and the H accuracy grade covers most general precision work. The code has no trailing T, so the rail mounts from the top with screws through its counterbored holes.
The carriage runs on Japanese-made ISO 3290 G10 balls (a ball grade, not an assembly standard), enclosed behind a double-lip seal that scrapes oil back and excludes dust, with an outer cover shielding the seal strip and hiding the fixings. Medium preload C trades a little running drag for reduced play - the choice when a stage must not rock under a tipping component. The ambient limit is 80 C with peaks to 100 C. One caution: ball retention helps but does not make the carriage immortal - slide it on square and never rush removal, or balls can escape. Load and moment figures are confirmed per model rather than published; ask us via RFQ before you finalise the design.

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.
A small pick-and-place head running on a 12 mm rail; medium preload limits head rock at the end of each move, and the compact 95 mm rail suits tight gantry spacing.
Component-placement jigs on electronics assembly lines use short, precise slides; the H grade and medium preload keep the jig seated through fast, repeated indexing.
A benchtop dispensing axis moving a syringe barrel over a short travel; preload C reduces play so the dispense point lands where it did on the last cycle.
A 95 mm rail at size 12 puts you in the deepest part of our stock: LRM12 accounts for 924 of 988 stocked sets, and price across the range tracks rail length far more than rail width, so trimming travel is the cheapest way to cut cost. If the load is heavy or overhung, LSH publishes dynamic, static and moment ratings per carriage that you can size against - LRM cannot, so we confirm its rating for you instead. For very short travel where crossed-roller stiffness matters more than travel length, LGC is the alternative. Checklist: complete set, 12 mm rail, standard carriage, one block, 95 mm rail, preload C, accuracy H, top-mount, and a confirmed load rating from us before ordering.
Quick checklist
In the box: one 95 mm stainless-steel rail, 12 mm wide, with one standard carriage fitted, medium preload C, high accuracy H, top-mount fixing. Screws torque to 196 N.cm in steel, 127 in cast iron, 98 in aluminium (M3), or 58.8, 39.2 and 29.4 N.cm (M2). Keep ambient temperature at or under 80 C, peaks 100 C. Re-grease after each 100 km of travel or every 3 to 6 months. Dynamic, static and moment load ratings are not published for LRM - we confirm them for this exact model on request.
Yes - it is a complete set with rail and one carriage delivered assembled, pre-greased with Kyodo Yushi PS No. 2. It is not a spare carriage and needs no pairing code; that applies only to carriage-only codes ending in BK, of which we stock just a handful, so most replacement carriages are a special order. Before first use, wipe off the rust-preventive oil and apply lubricant of the same type.
