Not the best in power tool parts and accessories

They came in a much larger box with no protection. The two pieces came in a plastic bag that was opened clean and not torn, so I can only assume it was returned.

From now on I will stay with Powertec. I messed up installing the other rails listed.

I install rails in my shop. I've tried Powertec before and haven't encountered any problems. Then I tried two other brands that Amazon sells and got frustrated with them. Now I regret not having ordered and installed other brands. T-bolts just won't slide in. I could really go back to them and use Powertec when I have the time and money. It would also look better than the black and silver rails. The blue looks really good on my desktop, drill press, band saw, and table saw sled.

Good product. A possible weakness.

Overall 5 stars. BUT what size screw to use? The answer seems to be #6: the #8 flathead from the product description doesn't quite sit under the rail. The head of the screw sticks to it a little. You have to juggle to get the head of the screw to be above the head of the screw. The #6 oval head worked, but also caused the screw head to momentarily stick on the rail. The #6 flat head makes for smooth operation, but feels like it's sitting deep in the countertop. No obvious problems, but I'd be…
