The AirTAC Airtac LRM Miniature Linear Guide LRM12N2X120S10BHT 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.
LRM12N2X120S10BHT is a complete AirTAC LRM miniature linear guide set in size 12. The box holds one stainless-steel rail, 120 mm long with a 12 mm profile and a 10 mm end-hole offset, and two standard-length carriages already fitted to it. The trailing T in the code marks a bottom-mount rail: the rail bolts down from underneath, which suits a machine deck where you cannot reach the screw heads from above.
Light preload (code B) takes up the clearance between balls and raceways for repeatable motion while keeping running friction low, and accuracy grade H is the high class of the two LRM offers. Inside each carriage, Japanese-made balls graded ISO 3290 G10 - a grade for the balls alone, not for the assembled guide - are held by a ball-retention design, sealed by a double lip and shielded by an outer cover over the screws. Ambient temperature must stay at or below 80 C, with brief peaks to 100 C. Load and moment ratings are not published for LRM; we confirm the figures for this exact model before you order - just send the RFQ.

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 benchtop camera inspection station where the top plate must stay completely clear - the bottom-mount rail bolts on from below, so no screw heads stand proud of the datum surface under the optics.
Servicing a small glue or solder-paste dispenser whose original slide is worn: the set form lets the whole 120 mm axis be replaced in one operation without disturbing the covered deck above.
Laboratory automation that carries a sampling head across a microplate tray - a light, precise duty where the 12 mm rail width fits a cramped instrument chassis.
If the load is substantial or overhung, step up to AirTAC LSH: it publishes per-carriage dynamic, static and moment ratings you can size against, which LRM does not. Where travel is short and crossed-roller rigidity matters more than stroke, LGC is the cross-over choice. Size 12 is also the heart of the LRM range - 924 of the 988 sets listed are LRM12 - so sourcing this width is the most straightforward path in the series. Before ordering, check the form (complete set with rail), the 12 mm rail width, standard carriage length, two carriages, the 120 mm rail, light preload B against the trade-off that any preload adds friction, accuracy H, bottom-mount fixing to match your deck, and confirm the load rating with us before committing.
Quick checklist
It is a complete set: one bottom-mount stainless rail, 12 mm wide and 120 mm long with a 10 mm end-hole offset, carrying two standard-length carriages, light preload B and high accuracy H. Fastening uses M3 screws torqued to 196 N.cm in steel, 127 N.cm in cast iron or 98 N.cm in aluminium. Ambient temperature must stay at or below 80 C, peaking briefly at 100 C, and re-greasing is due every 100 km of travel or every 3 to 6 months. Load and moment ratings are not published for LRM; we confirm them for this model on request.
Yes. This SKU is a complete set, so the 120 mm stainless rail and both standard carriages arrive assembled and pre-filled with Kyodo Yushi PS No.2 grease. Nothing pneumatic is involved - this is a plain mechanical slide. Spare carriages on their own use a different code shape (LRM12BK-...) matched by a pairing letter, and only a handful of carriage-only parts are listed, so plan any field swap with us early.
