Key Features

Repeatable Rip Widths Set your measurement once and make repeated rip cuts up to 13 inches wide without measuring and marking every board or sheet. That saves time and cuts down on layout mistakes. Fast On, Fast Off These guides attach quickly to the Kreg track saw guide track when you need them, then come off without losing calibration. You get faster setup without starting over each time. Built for Sheet Goods Adjustable leveling pins help position the 62 inch guide track on different material thicknesses, so ripping plywood, solid wood, and panels stays consistent and controlled.

Overview

Kreg ACS405 Adaptive Cutting System Rip Guides are precision measuring guides made for the Kreg Adaptive Cutting System. This is a track saw rip guide accessory designed for accurate, repeatable ripping in sheet goods and solid wood. Model Number: ACS405. If you are tired of measuring, marking, and double-checking every rip cut, this setup gives you a faster way to lock in a width and cut to that dimension again and again.

The big advantage here is repeatability. These rip guides let you make clean, straight rip cuts up to 13 inches wide using the Adaptive Cutting System 62 inch Guide Track. Instead of laying out each cut line by hand, you set the guides to the width you need, place the track, slide until the stops contact the workpiece, and cut. On cabinet parts, shelving, panel breakdown, or trim stock, that kind of repeatable setup can save a real amount of time over the course of a day.

Kreg built these with adjustable guides and hairline measurement indicators, which matters because this type of accessory only earns its keep if adjustment is easy to read and easy to trust. The aluminum workpiece stops extend under the guide track to create a physical reference point against the material. That helps remove guesswork and makes it easier to hit the same finished width across multiple pieces.

Another practical detail is how the guides mount and store. The Kreg ACS405 Adaptive Cutting System Rip Guides attach quickly when you need them and can be removed without losing calibration. That is a useful feature on a busy bench or jobsite because you can switch between guided rips and standard track use without turning setup into a project of its own.

They are also designed to work across varying stock thicknesses thanks to adjustable leveling pins that position the 62 inch guide track correctly. That matters when you move between plywood, solid wood, and other sheet goods and want the track to sit consistently while the saw travels over the material. It is a small detail, but it is the kind of detail that keeps cuts predictable.

Construction is listed as ABS plastic and aluminum, which makes sense for an accessory like this. You want something light enough to handle easily, but stable enough to hold its setting. The aluminum stop bars provide the reference edge, while the body keeps the guides manageable and straightforward to adjust.

Compatibility is important here. These are not universal rip fences. They are made specifically for use with the Kreg Adaptive Cutting System 62 inch Guide Track, and they also work with the Adaptive Cutting System Plunge Saw. If you already run that Kreg track saw cutting platform, these guides are a smart add-on. If you do not own that system, this is not the accessory to buy first.

Who should buy them? Woodworkers, cabinet installers, trim carpenters, remodelers, and serious DIY users who break down plywood or make repeated narrow rip cuts will get the most from this accessory. If your work involves one-off cuts only, you may not need dedicated rip guides. But if you do repeated panel sizing and want faster setup with fewer measuring steps, these guides make the Kreg system a lot more efficient.

Dial In Repeated Rip Cuts

When you are cutting multiple parts to the same width, the value is simple: less layout time and more consistency from piece to piece. These guides turn the Kreg track saw system into a more efficient ripping setup for cabinet parts, shelves, panels, and other straight cuts.
