BOW Products FP5 Portable Saw Featherboard — EVA Feathers for Reduced Kickback and Safer Table Saws

Enhance control and safety with the FP5 featherboard

Designed for portable and contractor table saws, the BOW Products FP5 uses EVA high-density foam feathers for durable, repeatable grip. The feather foam is engineered to minimize marring when high tension is applied, helping you maintain precise control as you work through stock. This featherboard is built to support steady guiding, enabling smoother passes along the blade and reducing chatter during cuts.

Compatibility and package alongside thoughtful hardware ensure quick setup. The FP5 ships with one unit, replaceable feathers, mounting hardware, 5/8" and 3/4" Miter Bars, and a large hexagonal Adjustment Knob for confident tensioning. It is crafted to fit common slots found on many portable and contractor saw setups, helping you expand your toolkit without added complexity.
