Pros & Cons
Pros
Really sturdy tracks in a nice case. Life can be broken down into, before track saw and after track saw. Currently using this track with a wen track saw.
Highlights
Quality
I like that it is of excelent quiality although i have to get the clamps because it tends to slightly move when cutting, but ov... Read More
It holds the xps01 track saw and slides with no issues and supports the anti-tip lock needed for bevel cuts.
The powertec uses a single spline and the set screws deform the aluminum of the track itself.
Both of these problems should have been caught with a better quality inspection.
Price
They are awesome and half the price.
Joining these two works perfectly, plus you get the case for about 2/3 the cost of one long makita track.
I didn't want to pay the extra $ for the long makita track.
00 for the powertec - way more than double the price.
Shipping
The rails arrived true and connected together with no issues.
Packaging/appearance
As it was delivered the box was slightly damaged at the corners and there were opening /space for items to slip out.
The problem is that one of the tracks arrived sticking out of the box, screws were rattling around inside and some were missing.
Competitiveness
One difference from the makita oem version is the design of the guide connector splines.
I purchased the makita track saw as a tool only and purchased the power tech tracks because they were less expensive.
This powertec track has all of the same features as the more expensive makita version.
I was sceptical by the price point, but these tracks are almost identical to the makita tracks.
