The Rip Kit for 12″″ Radial Arm Saws must be ordered when purchasing a new Radial Arm Saw, as it requires factory installation for proper functionality. This add-on is not sold separately from the saw.
Order online, contact Original Saw Company at (800) 733-4063 or email customerservice@originalsaw.com.
The Rip Kit is installed during the manufacturing process and shipped as part of your 14″ or 16″ Radial Arm Saw order.
A Rip Kit is an accessory for Radial Arm Saws, allowing the saw to perform rip cuts. Rip cuts involve cutting a board lengthwise or parallel to the grain. This kit includes components such as an anti-kickback assembly and adjusts the saw’s motor to swivel parallel to the fence, expanding the saw’s functionality for woodworking projects.
Woodworkers make rip cuts when they need to resize wider boards into narrower pieces or when creating precise, parallel cuts along the length of a board. Rip cuts are commonly used in cabinetry, furniture making, and general woodworking to customize material dimensions.
Rip Kits require factory installation to ensure proper alignment and functionality. Order a Rip Kit when you order your saw.
No, the Rip Kit does not include a guard assembly. If you need a new guard for your Radial Arm Saw, it must be ordered separately. The Rip Kit consists of the anti-kickback assemblies and screws, as referenced in the product diagram.
The anti-kickback assembly is a safety feature included in the Rip Kit that helps prevent the material from being thrown back toward the operator during rip cuts. It provides safer operation by reducing the risk of kickback, which can occur when cutting materials along the grain.
Ask about sending in a material sample to Original Saw. We will cut your material on our shop saw and make a video. Afterwards, you can review the videoed test cuts and make informed decisions. Most importantly, we want you to feel comfortable with your solutions before your purchase.
