O'SKOOL Miter Bar Slot Runner – 17-Inch, 2-Pack PTA024 for Table Saw Sleds

Overview

Enhance precision and consistency in your woodworking with the O'SKOOL Miter Bar Slot Runner set. This 17-inch, two-bar kit is designed to glide smoothly in standard miter slots, providing a stable foundation for table saw sleds and crosscut sleds. Crafted for real workshop use, the bars feature a precise aluminum alloy that resists dents and flex over time. The roundover entry minimizes snagging as you guide the bars into position, while the expansion collars help maintain near zero clearance between the bar and track. The result is a predictable, quiet glide that lets you focus on cut lines rather than fit adjustments.

Durability is at the core of these bars. The premium aluminum alloy stands up to repeated clamping, tapping, and a variety of jig configurations. The standard 3/4 x 3/8 inch dimensions ensure compatibility with many T-slot and U-slot tracks found in common table saw setups. Installation is straightforward: the bars fit securely into both tracked styles and stay aligned during operation. The 2-pack format is convenient for paired runners on larger sleds or keeping a spare ready. The included hardware adds value, so you can start mounting with minimal setup time.
