They are sold as a set with <strong>LM</strong> guides.Note5) The openings of <strong>LM</strong> rail mounting holes are not chamfered. Take care not to injure your hands while working.Note6) After fitting GC caps, the upper surface of the <strong>LM</strong> rail must be flattened and cleaned (wiped).Note7) If you wish to fit GC caps for a single rail, use the sample model number configuration shown below.• Mounting methodThe procedure for inserting a GC cap into amounting hole consists of using a flat aligningfitting to gradually punch the cap into the holeuntil it is level with the upper surface of the <strong>LM</strong>rail, as shown in the figure. Fit GC caps withoutremoving the <strong>LM</strong> rail from the <strong>LM</strong> block.<strong>LM</strong> <strong>Guide</strong> model numberSHSHSRHCRSCRCSRSHWHRWSRGSRN SRW GSR HR NSR-TBCGC5 M5 20 20 25 25X 20 20 — 20 — 20 2042 20GC6 M625Y 25Y2530 30 25 25 35 25 — 25 —30 3030GC8 M8 35 35 35 3530 3030255550— 3035 3535306540GC10 M10 — 45 — — — — 60 — 70 35 3575 50GC12 M12 — 55 45 45 45 45 — 45 85 — 4085 70GC14 M14 — — 55 55 55 — — 55 100 — — —GC16 M16 —708565 65 65 65 — 65 130 — 50105 —GC22 M22 — — 85 85 85 — — 85 150 — — —GC24 M24 — 120 — — 100 — — 100 — — — —SNR45 LR 2 QZ KKHH C0 +1200L P - GCModel No.Type of<strong>LM</strong> blockWith QZLubricatorNo. of <strong>LM</strong> blocksused on the same railContaminationprotection accessorysymbol(Example) SNR45LR2QZKKHHC0+1200LPGC<strong>LM</strong> rail length (in mm)Radial clearance symbolNormal (No symbol)Light preload (C1)Medium preload (C0)With GC cap (Note5)Symbol for No. of rails used on the same plane (Note5)Accuracy symbolNormal grade (No Symbol)/High accuracy grade (H)Precision grade (P)/Super precision grade (SP)Ultra precision grade (UP)With GC cap* Add the symbol (GC) to the end of the model number.Plastic hammerFlat metal piece<strong>LM</strong> <strong>Guide</strong> (Options)<strong>Industrial</strong> <strong>Technologies</strong>A1-341
