Guide Rail Applications.

Making precision cuts with our plunge cut circular saw or creating straight grooves and dados with our routers has never been easier. Taking the tool to the material instead of the material to the tool is the best way to save time, energy, and money. With Festool guide rail systems, you do not need to use an expensive panel saw or worry about pushing a heavy piece of material through a table saw or across a router table. Getting splinter-free cuts, and perfect edges is as simple as laying the guide rail on the workpiece, aligning it to your cut-line, and pushing the tool effortlessly across the rail.

Lengths - Guide rails are available in sizes from 32" to 16.5' to match any application and can be joined together for additional lengths.
Splinter Guard - The integrated splinter guard and glide strips provide smooth, splinter-free operation.
Gecko - The gecko suction adapter is one of the many brilliant accessories for Festool guide rails.

When used with our TS 55 or TS 75 plunge cut circular saws, you can get cuts that are splinter-free and absolutely straight in wood and other materials like plastic, composites, solid surface and other related materials. Cutting accurate, straight grooves could not be any simpler than when using a Festool router with the optional guide stop. An optional hole drilling set and one of our hole series rails make fast work of placing perfect 32mm shelf pins and 35mm holes for European hinges in cabinets.

A special non-slip strip helps to prevent guide rail movement as well as protect the workpiece surface. Two continuous T-slots serve as channels that allow clamp and limit stop connection at any point. These same T-slots serve as connection points when joining two rails together. Or attach Festool’s Gecko suction cup clamp for secure alignment on non-porous materials.

Used the DOMINO machine to hold elevation between two different tongue & groove patterns in pre-finished flooring. By cutting the groove & using a DOMINO Tennon I was able to maintain a level top surface without unsightly face nailing or set up time to match the groove to the tongue.Andy G., Connecticut
