This fence fits like a glove. It's perfect for my ryobi BS 900 I don't know what everybody's talking about, but that's what it says it fits and my ryobi was by made in 94, so it's an old one, it's perfect. It's easy to use you, just take it out of the package. Unwind the handle, put it on it, wind it back up. So you think it's tight, but when you think it's tight. It's probably too tight so you want to back it off. If you wantna have a about a quarter of an inch to maybe 3/8 of an inch from the stop to the table and it should fit perfect. Just be careful, don't over tighten it because it's not a table sawfence.

While a little flimsy feeling, for the price and size, it works. There is a chance of it not clamping parallel self aligning so I only lock it when I have a square against the platform, mine has a rough surface and not surface ground which may be the cause. The plastic fingers don't seem to have enough precision to not go a half degree one way or the other off square, not really something that can be adjusted out with the screws on the top which allow that. It does clamp square by not allowing to clamp when not perfectly square and it might be my rough edges on the table and not slippery enough causing it.For the price and what I need it for, I'm very happy, just don't expect it to be as smooth as a table saw fence clamp for squareness accuracy if you have a ridged/rough table edge.I recommend this anyway due to value for money and doing what is needed as a square to be sure is always a good idea anyway.

I wanted to do one fairly small-scale re-saw job on my Hitachi CB6Y. The boards were 3/4" x 5" x 36", and I was hoping to get boards between 1/4" and 3/16" thick from them. This fence works okay for short items, it is adjustable (with some effort) and locks down reasonably well. But it will tip a significant amount if you are trying to use it to re-saw, it is just not made for that. Now I will have to try something else, maybe make my own fence that I can clamp to the table.

First off, let me just say that I don't own the 9" Powertec saw that this BS900RF rip fence is actually made for, but instead bought it to adapt to my older 9" Delta 28-150 saw, since Delta stopped making the 28-181 fence for their bench top saws several years ago and the Kreg KMS7200 band saw fence won't work on my model. I did quite a bit of research comparing specs on different manufactures table sizes and fences and as it turned out, the Powertec BS900 with its 11-3/4" square table was the closest match to the Delta, which has an 11-1/2" square table. Also based on pics from the internet and my owner's manual, the Powertec fence was the closest looking match to the discontinued Delta 28-181 fence, although I was fully prepared to have to extensively modify it if necessary. I ended up just needing to remove maybe 1/16" from the upper edge of the lower front cast aluminum guide with a file to allow it to fully slide underneath the table and also had to straighten the hook on the steel rear clamp a tiny bit with a hammer and vise to allow it to engage the bottom lip of the table. Once that was done the fence fit in place almost as if it were made for my saw.The fence only measures a little over 12" long X 2" high and I think it is severely overpriced for what it is, but since it was the best option I could find, for my needs I feel it was worth it. The fence does work well and once I got it adapted and adjusted properly it sets square, clamps down firmly and stays securely in place. Before I got this fence I had just been using a board and clamps, which worked fine, but often required me to use a square on both ends to set it accurately, so was sort of slow and a pain to work with when I needed to change position multiple times to make several different width rip cuts. This fence is much faster and easier for me to setup and remove, so I'm now actually glad that I took a chance and spent the money on it.The product description says that guide bars and mounting screws are included, but none came with mine, so not sure if that is just a typo, but I didn't need them for my application anyway.BTW, if you happen to own a 9" Delta 28-150, SM400, BS100 or Black & Decker BDBS100 and are looking for an OEM style rip fence for it, these saws apparently all have the same size table with the same part number, so this Powertec BS900RF fence should be able to be adapted to any of them.

These should be standard issue for any band saw. Half of the use in having a band saw is to making rip cuts and resawing boards, and this is just what you need for those tasks.Does it fit your saw? Very likely. I wish I had measured the table on my saw, but I can say that the model I have is extremely common, and sold under a dozen or so different brand names. If your saw looks like the one pictured, this fence fits it. If it doesn't look like that model, the fence probably will still fit if it is a 9" band saw (has 9" wheels in it). If you have an oddball saw, such as a three wheel band saw, this fence may still fit. I wish I could be more help, but you can always return it if it doesn't fit.In use, the fence aligns itself decently, but you should check it with a square for...well, squareness. Unlike with a table saw, a slightly out-of-square fence isn't a big deal on a band saw, but there's no reason not to have it dialed in just right. Not a big deal, and for the price, I'm more than happy to take the extra step to check accuracy.I do wish the fence had some holes in it to accommodate attaching a waste board or a taller board to help stabilize tall cuts, such as when resawing. No worries, though. Chances are that if you own a band saw, you also own a drill, and you can easily drill a couple of holes through the aluminum housing to bolt or screw a wasteboard to the fence.

Good product and packaging

I bought this about a year ago and maybe used it 3 times. When attempting to lock the fence to my bandsaw the plastic base of fence broke. I attempted to contact the company to see about a warranty or replacement, but they never replied.

Had to adapt but works great

Worked very well. Got it for the Ryobi 9" bandsaw. Requires manual adjusting as it's not incredibly tight or right-angle aligned by default, but it does the job well once adjusted. Sits snugly on the table.

Buen producto me sirve para mi sierra Powertec y para mí sierra Proxxon

This is a good replacement for my Record BS9 band saw rip fence. I was pleased to find it as it appears Record will not sell a replacement rip fence-Go figure?

Fence does everything it is supposed to. Fits tight to the table, attaches and moves easily and sits square. Works perfectly.

por el costo esperaba algo más robusto.
