Makita 423360-7 Rubber Splinter Guide

I bought this for my Festool 1400/2 guide rail, I was initially skeptical about not choosing the genuine Festool version. However, at a third of the price, it was worth a try, and there’s enough to cover two 1400mm guide rails too. After removing the old splinter guard, I cleaned the rail with a Big Wipe, but the residue prevented proper adhesion. I then used rubbing alcohol on a microfiber cloth to remove the residue, and it then adhered perfectly. When trimming it down with the track saw, I noticed a difference from the Festool version. Instead of cutting off a strip, this one turned into crumbs which made a rite mess despite being attached to the extractor. First use was on 6mm MDF, it was easier to line up and delivered results that, in my opinion, were better than the genuine Festool version. It’s also noticeably sturdier.

Excellent. I have tried a few of these and most have frayed during cutting. This one doesn't fray at all. It still retains a nice clean edge after mulitple cuts. I don't think I will buy anything other than this brand going forward.

Genuine makita easy install, just clean the track with alcohol and good to go.!!

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.

Brilliant. Used to replace damaged lips on my evolution tracks and these are better quality than the original.

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.

Better then some others available

Excellent item

produit identique au neuf .

goed

Passt perfekt auf die Makita Führungsschiene. Habe das neue Band in 3 m bestellt, passt so auf die 1,4 und 1,0 er Schiene und ist günstiger als fertig zugeschnitten. Außerdem hat man beim aufkleben mehr Spiel. Das entfernen des alten Kantenschutzez wahr aufwendiger. Das Gummi ging leicht ab, aber für den Kleber empfehle ich Bremsenreiniger und einen Klingenschaber mitPlastikklinge. Zeitaufwand für beide Schienen ca 1 h.

Does what it's supposed to do

Reçu rapidement il s'adapte parfaitement à mon rail (Métabo) et même le Parkside !
