Track Saw Guide Rails by Brand and Length
Guide rails give a track saw a straight path for splinter-free cuts in plywood, doors, and countertops. This collection holds rails from Festool, Makita, Milwaukee, and DeWALT. Festool offers FS rails from the 32 in. FS 800 to the 118 in. FS 3000, 32mm hole drilling rails, and FSK cross cutting rails in 250, 420, and 670 sizes. Makita sells 39, 55, and 118 in. rails, Milwaukee 31 and 55 in. rails, and DeWALT 46, 59, and 102 in. tracks. Limit stops, non-skid strips, and Incra T-Track Plus are here too.
What to Look For
- Saw match. Rail profiles differ by brand. Buy rails made for your saw or confirm compatibility with the saw maker.
- Length. Pick one rail for crosscuts and one longer than your longest rip.
- Joining. Two short rails joined with connectors can replace one long rail, but long single rails stay straighter.
- Crosscut rails. Festool FSK rails spring back after each cut for repeat crosscuts.
