BOW FP5 Portable Saw Featherboard – EVA Feathers for Kickback Reduction

Overview

The BOW FP5 Featherboard is a compact, purpose-built safety accessory designed for tables saws, contractor saws, and smaller work surfaces. It uses EVA high-density foam feathers that provide a firm grip on stock without excessive pressure, helping you maintain control as you feed material through the blade.

Engineered for dependable performance, the FP5 works with common 5/8-inch and 3/4-inch slots found on many portable and mid-size saws. The unit ships with all the hardware needed for quick setup, so you can get to work with less downtime.
