Safety Woodworking Push Stick 2 Pack, Each Has a Contoured Handle Embedded with Two Rare Earth Magnets, Ideal for Pushing Stock Through on Table Saws, Router Tables, Shapers and Jointers
Brand: Fulton
When you need to cut a narrow piece of stock on a table saw we know that it can be a little dicey or intimidating. Many of us try to cut the piece we need on the outside of the blade rather than dealing with narrow cuts. However, cutting narrow stock is sometimes unavoidable. In this case it is recommended that you use a safety device such as a push stick to help feed the stock through. Push sticks also help you safely push a workpiece, keeping it flat against a table top while it is being cut.
Designed to keep your hands away from blades or cutter, this push stick is an essential tool for your safety. The push stick prevents your hand from getting to close to the cutters or blades on table saws, router tables, shapers and jointers. The push stick has a 90 degree notch on the end with a relief circle to accept the 90 degree corner of your stock. The notched end is designed to be at the ideal angle to the handle and allows for even pressure while pushing stock through the blade.
One of the “handiest” features of this push stick is that we have embedded two magnets into the handle. We have done this because many of us have a hard time keeping track of our tools once we are done with them. The embedded magnets remedy this issue by allowing you to place the push stick directly on metal surfaces like the side of a table saw cabinet. We have embedded not just one, but two separate magnets on to the handle to keep the push stick from sliding or inadvertently rotating.
The push stick end has been intentionally colored a bright “safety orange” for the simple reason of being able to see the stick at all times when in use. This ensures that you can see exactly where you are placing the push stick in relation to the blade or cutter. The bright color also makes the push stick easy to locate when it stored away.
The Magnetic Handle Push Stick measures approximately 12” long and has an ergonomically designed handle that delivers more precise control and a comfortable grip. The push stick also has a hole drilled into the handle just in case you don’t have any metal surfaces to place the push stick. The hole allows you to hang the push stick just a like the rest of your tools . Includes 2 Safety Push Sticks.
