Festool FS-FB Guide Rail Limit Stop for Repeat Cutting and Routing – FES485827

Overview

Festool FS-FB Guide Rail Limit Stop At a Glance: Adjustable stop for compatible Festool FS guide rails, providing a repeatable starting or finishing position for suitable rail-guided operations. Make repeated rail-guided operations easier to set up with the Festool FS-FB limit stop. Positioned along a compatible guide rail, it provides a physical reference for limiting tool travel. This is useful when several components require the same stopping point or when a routing operation must remain within a defined section of the workpiece. Set the stop, check the actual cutting position and retain the setting for subsequent operations. For work requiring both a starting and finishing limit, two appropriately positioned stops can establish the working range. A physical reference for repeatable tool travel The stop establishes where the guided tool or its compatible guide arrangement meets a fixed reference. The position of the blade or cutter relative to that contact point must be allowed for during setup. Product Highlights • Repeat positioning: Provides a consistent reference along the guide rail. • Adjustable location: Position the stop to suit the required operation. • Cutting and routing applications: Useful with suitable rail-guided equipment. • Start or finish reference: Use one stop for a single limit or an additional stop to define both ends. • Genuine Festool accessory: Identified by article number 485827. Product Compatibility • Festool FS guide rails: Intended for compatible original FS and FS/2 rail arrangements. • Rail-guided saws: Use only where the tool’s instructions permit this stop and contact arrangement. • Rail-guided routers: Requires the appropriate router guide attachment and a suitable stop contact point. • Other guided equipment: Confirm rail fit, clearance and effective contact before operation. Check the Exact Stop Required Article 485827 is a different design from the FS-RSP stop, article 491582. For plunge-saw safety applications, use the stop specified in your saw’s operating instructions rather than assuming the two designs are interchangeable.
