Its dual-edged design enables straight cuts in both directions, allowing the saw to be positioned on either side of the rail.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis added flexibility makes it particularly useful when working with larger panels or when approaching a cut from different directions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEdge strips positioned along both sides of the rail help prevent splintering and tear-out, contributing to cleaner finished edges. Low-friction strips help the saw travel smoothly and securely along the track, while high-friction strips underneath help keep the guide rail securely positioned on the material while protecting the workpiece surface.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAn edge protector also helps prevent deformation of the rail edges and reduces the possibility of a saw cable or extraction hose catching on the rail.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFor projects requiring an even longer cutting capacity, two compatible guide rails can be joined and accurately aligned using a suitable rail joining bar. Tightening holes positioned on the top of the rail allow the joining bar to be secured without needing to turn the rail over.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFor example, when cutting a full-size timber panel for cabinetry, the 2.6m rail can provide a continuous guide across the workpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOnce positioned along the required cutting line, a compatible DEWALT saw follows the track while the low-friction strips support smooth movement and the edge strips help minimise breakout. The result is a long, straight and cleaner cut without repeatedly stopping to reposition a shorter guide.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dewalt","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49565340926142,"sku":"dewdws5102xj","price":247.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/9939\/0398\/files\/DEWDWS5102XJ__59690.jpg?v=1793824583","url":"https:\/\/yestore.co.uk\/products\/its-dewdws5102xj-dewalt-dws5102-xj-2-6m-guide-rail","provider":"Yestore ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
