Assembly tool for Cross Cut Sled with ball bearings

Finally building a sliding sled that really works

If you want to build your own sliding sled on the Bosch GTS 10 XC, you need one thing above all else: play-free guidance. Without it, the carriage wobbles, the cutting angles are incorrect, and all the work was in vain. This is exactly where these roller rails come into play.

The rails are inserted into the recessed grooves of the GTS 10 XC table and form a ball-bearing, play-free guide for your self-built sliding sled, also known as a Cross Cut Sled.

What is included in the set

• 2x fixed bearing rails, adjustable without play, for precise guidance
• 2x floating bearing rails ensure smooth running and no jamming
• 44x ball bearings in total for buttery-smooth, play-free operation
• 16x M4x20 countersunk screws and matching nuts for 12 mm plates

Backlash-free thanks to fixed bearings and floating bearings

The principle comes from mechanical engineering. The fixed bearing provides precise, play-free guidance in all directions. The floating bearing compensates for manufacturing tolerances and slight distortions. Together, this creates a sliding carriage that moves cleanly and without play across the entire table.

Safety when pulling out

An integrated tipping protection takes effect as soon as the sliding carriage is pulled out far enough. It doesn't fall down or tip over from the table. Work safely even with long boards.

Get started straight away

All mounting hardware is included. Insert the rails, align them, put the sliding carriage on, done. No separate accessories required. Ideal for a 12 mm thick carriage plate.
