Bow Products FeatherPro Portable Saw Featherboard
Portable saw featherboard now brings the safety and performance benefits of the world’s safest featherboard “FeatherPro” to DIY and contractor saws with smaller table surfaces. A single 6 In. travel slot and single knob actuation for fast set up. The portable saw featherboard features EVA feathers which have revolutionized featherboard performance and safety. EVA feathers virtually arrest kickback, something you don’t get from plastic feathers. EVA has slight pliability which combined with our patented living hinge design press the board against the table and absorb kickback forces immediately as the board moves backwards. EVA feathers provide excellent infeed and outfeed control for the cleanest cut. As feather tension is applied, the feathers lay down for greater surface contact holding wood secure against the table and minimize wiggle. Even under high feather tension, wood feeds easy and smooth, yet firm. EVA feathers dampen vibration and will not mar even the softest woods. If these aren’t enough reasons to never use a plastic feather featherboard again, here is the next major advantage: If the EVA feathers make accidental contact with a blade or router bit, they cut through and can be replaced; no violent reaction. Plastic feathers can shatter and become dangerous projectiles that can cause serious injury, and your featherboard is ruined. And if you’re using cutters with carbide tips, they could be damaged as well. EVA is a high density closed cell material. Our EVA Feathers are made from a unique blend ideal for woodworking and are extremely durable. Feathers are replaceable and reversible. Feathers are water jet cut for precision. Comes with a comfortable ergonomic knob. Comes with a 5/8 In. and 3/4 In. miter bars. Also mounts to T-track.
Kickback Prevention: The portable saw featherboard virtually arrests kickback, EVA material combines with our living hinge design to pinch board against the table and absorb kickback forces, 5x greater kickback resistance versus plastic or wood feathers
Ultimate Feed Control: EVA feathers increase the amount of surface contact on the work piece, ensuring a smoother glide and superior infeed control, substantially reduces wiggle you get with plastic feathers
Cleanest Cut: EVA feathers absorb vibration and minimize chatter for a cleaner cut, feathers are non-marring on even the softest woods
EVA Feather Features and Safety: Feathers are reversible and replaceable, feathers will not harm carbide blades or router bits in case of accidental contact, feathers conform slightly to the wood, EVA will NOT set off saw stop, EVA will NOT absorb fluid as it is a closed cell material, EVA will NOT bleed color or shed material, single knob actuation: ideal for small table surfaces
