Festool Splinter Guard Replacement Strip FS-SP 5000 for Track Saw Guide Rail

The Festool Splinter Guard Replacement Strip is designed to prevent edge splintering during cutting operations. This accessory helps ensure accurate application of the guide rail along the scribed line, and regular replacement is necessary to maintain its effectiveness.

One of the key benefits of the Splinter Guard is its ability to deliver a splinter-free cut. The rubber lip presses the material directly onto the cutting edge, minimizing splintering of the workpiece. When the Splinter Guard is initially cut during use, it perfectly matches the precise cutting edge, allowing for accurate alignment with the marked cutting line.

The replacement Splinter Guard is self-adhesive and can be easily trimmed to size, making it compatible with Festool's FS, FS/2, and FSK guide rails. This transparency allows for clear visibility of the cutting line during use.

To ensure optimal performance, it is important to maintain a clean working surface and remove any debris or adhesive residue before applying the new Splinter Guard. By carefully following the installation instructions, users can ensure a secure and accurate fit, which is crucial for maintaining the integrity of the cutting line.

One of the standout features of the Festool Splinter Guard Replacement Strip is the comprehensive 1-year warranty. Customers can request a full refund or a free replacement if they are not satisfied with the product, without the need to return the old one. Festool's responsive customer service team is available to address any questions or concerns within 12 hours.

In terms of compatibility, the 495209 Splinter Guard Replacement Strip is designed to replace the 495207 model and is compatible with Festool's FS/2, FS/2 KP, and FSK guide rails, as well as their rail saws. Regularly replacing the Splinter Guard is recommended, especially when switching between different blades or using the guide rail with multiple saws, to ensure consistently splinter-free cuts.

Overall, the Festool Splinter Guard Replacement Strip is a high-quality accessory that enhances the precision and safety of your cutting operations. Its strong adhesive, excellent visibility, and hassle-free replacement process make it a valuable addition to any woodworking or DIY enthusiast's toolbox.
