Fits Evolution TrackSaw
After buying Evolution’s replacement strips I was very disappointed. These, however, are a brilliant replacement. Being rubber they are more pliable and adhere much better. They are also a lot cheaper being sold on Amazon. Recommend HG Sticker Remover and a good plastic scrapper to remove the previous gum.
Not 3 metres
Bought to replace splinter guard on 2 x 1.5m Makita guide rail / tracks.
Tracks were connected together and new splinter guard applied (old adhesive removed with stanley blade) . Quick check before fitting and length seemed to be OK, however upon fitting and despite starting dead size (no overlap) found it was approximately 25mm too short. Laid in place to avoid stretching – perhaps stretching is required?
Typically with rails this long 2 passes are needed where the track is split and joined together again to pick up the untrimmed start/end of each track.
This means that the gap is in the centre adjacent to the track joint.
There is nothing wrong with the adhesion of this product!
As I’m sure a few of of us have, I caused a significant amount of damage to the guard strip that came with the saw, and baring in mind that’s the reference point for a cut, it made cutting square a guessing game.
Finally located a replacement that I felt was a fair price for what it was, and noted some reviews complained about the strip not adhering properly.
To those I would ask, did you properly clean the track before affixing the new one?
And I doubt some did!
After removing the old I used a microfibre and mentholated spirits to thoroughly clean any old residual and used a second microfiber to ensure it was completely dry.
Line up and apply the strip and then using a thin strip of ply (or what ever wood you have) place over the strip and clamp up and down the track and leave for half an hour.
The strip is permanently attached to my saw. There are no gaps for the dust to get underneath (even the joy of MDF dust) and once I did a ‘dry’ cut with the saw, I was left with a perfectly trimmed guard edge and back to square cuts.
Perfect replacement for track saw splinter guard. I have an erbauer track saw and there was some chunks out of my splinter guard. I bought this and it was s perfect replacement. I now have a straight fresh splinter guard for my tracks.
Bought this to replace the splinter guard on my erbauer saw tracks. Works an absolute treat. Had no problem with adhesion but I did spend a bit of time cleaning the previous glue residue off the tracks before sticking this o
Good value for money.
Replaced the worn rubber edge on my track-saw guide, nick simple and at a fraction of the cost of the OEM replacement. even have enough leftover to to do it again, when needed.
Great. Better than the original in my opinion as it removes without leaving any sticky residue. I’ve even unpealed it when the edge is damaged, moved it out a couple mm and restuck it… BOOM ! I’ve done this twice so far on my Makita track and reckon I’ll get another one out of it.
I’ll definitely be buying this item again.
