POWERTEC 71579 Router Table Setup Bars - 7 Piece Precision Set POWERTEC USA 7-PIECE PRECISION SET - 1/8\" TO 1/2\" RANGE - ANODIZED ALUMINUM - CASE INCLUDED Professional Router Table & Table Saw Setup Bars (71579) High-Precision Calibration for Error-Free Joinery
The POWERTEC 71579 is a professional-grade set of 7 Router Table Setup Bars, specifically precision-engineered to eliminate the frustration of trial-and-error machine calibration. This set is the definitive choice for woodworkers who need to set bit heights or fence offsets to within 1/128 of an inch without using a standard ruler or tape measure. Featuring a specialized 3-in-1 gauge design, each bar allows you to set the depth of a bit, the height of a table saw blade, or the exact distance between the fence and the cutter. By using these physical reference blocks, you ensure absolute repeatability across multiple workpieces, maintaining a consistent laminar flow in your production schedule.
Constructed from premium soft-metal anodized aluminum, the 71579 bars are designed to be \"edge-friendly.\" Unlike steel gauges, aluminum will not chip or dull your expensive caroffere router bits or saw blades if accidental contact occurs during setup. Each bar features laser-etched, high-contrast markings for rapid identification and is precisely 5-7/8\" long to provide a stable reference base. The set covers a comprehensive range from 1/8\" to 1/2\" in 1/16\" increments. Whether you are setting up a precision dado or calibrating a raised panel door bit, these setup bars deliver the axial accuracy required for showroom-quality results.
