SYS-GRP - FS Rail Vacuum Pods

Track saws have transformed accuracy and versatility in the shop and on the job site, but critical cuts often require clamping. While track-style rail clamps are common, they can be cumbersome, and sometimes the workpiece doesn’t accommodate standard clamping solutions.

Enter our SYS-GRP FS Rail Vacuum Pods. Designed for quick deployment on a Festool-style Guide Rail, our SYS-GRP FS Rail Pods allow you to place and secure the rail without the need for clamps.

Our SYS-GRP FS Rail Pods can be used in conjunction with standard parallel guides, rail squares, or even the Festool LR32 system to quickly and reliably secure your rail exactly where you need it.  We have even tested and developed the FS Rail Vacuum Pods for vertical applications where securing your rail against a wall or other vertical surface is required*

By pairing our SYS-GRP FS Rail Pods with our Grabo Pro Adapter Kit and Grabo Pro-Lifter, you have a mobile solution suitable for job sites or when you need to bring the tool to the workpiece instead of the workpiece to the tool.

* For vertical applications it is recommended you perform pre-operation testing to assure the pods create enough vacuum clamping force due to wide variances in materials.  For long rail applications >1700mm it is recommended that an extra pod is added for additional clamping force, in the case of Maximus this means three (3) total pods and for Hydraeus this means four (4) total pods.

For long rail applications where work is being conducted by a single operator it is recommended that you employ our accessory valve kit to be able to position and engage the rail from the center of the rail before engaging the outer rail pods.
