POWERTEC connector set

Robust and well made. They work great with my Festool instructions. The only difference between them and Festool connectors is that they use hex set screws whereas Festool connectors use set screws with a simple blade screwdriver.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • No

Fits perfectly on my Makita chainsaw

I recently bought a Makita chainsaw and a second guide (55 inch 194368-5). I dared and I'm glad I did. Back then, Makita wanted $45 for their car, that was $14! I got this and it worked great. It's well made, easy to use, powerful and accurate. It connected the two 55 inch lanes perfectly and was dead straight. It worked so well I couldn't imagine buying a Makita kit for triple the price.

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • Some cons

Good in the accessory kit

When I first ordered the rail connector it was great. I use it on my Makita chainsaw bars and they fit great. I have a different gauge so I decided to order the same plugs but this time the plug was missing 3 set screws. Additionally, it had a different hex size so I couldn't use the same hex wrench, which was a little annoying. Overall, this is a great product if you have the appropriate adjusting screws, and it's $10 cheaper than a single Makita plug.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • I won't say anything

Interested in carving? - Great for Powertec and also for my Dewalt track

Hi guys this is a quality connector set. I plan to make some chainsaw attachments with these. I can use it with Dewalt Track thanks to a reviewer who already knew about it :) What made me more interested in buying it was the thread size of the nuts. Inside! It's M6-1.0, in other words, 6mm x 1.0 bolts will work with this if you plan on multiple jigs for your chainsaw.

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Nothing here

Fits perfectly! for power tool parts and accessories

Bought them for me to experiment with. I have a chainsaw and a set of two 55 inch Powertec guides. Love her by the way. I was going to use them to make square rails, which I still plan to do, but what I did was cut one of these in half and use these parts to modify the Festool rail mount and mount for the MFT3. These connectors fit perfectly on the Woodriver T-rail (the only T-rail that I know of that fits). Now I use it to create my own MFT worksheets. Festool is great but I'm mostly aโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Very impressive

Works with Dewalt Track Saw Tracks

After looking for a Dewalt OEM connector that only returned UK sources which included exorbitant postage/duties on top of the high cost of the item I decided to give these Powertec units a try. Instead of a Dewalt connector about $50, they cost about $8.19 each. The questions and answers in the Revain review regarding the use of these devices with Dewalt splints were ambiguous to say the least, so I ordered them with the possibility that I might have to return them. After receiving them I canโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Several competitors
Cons
  • Lots of stuff
