Use your Festool circular saw on the TrueTrac track system for straight, controlled, repeatable cuts on large material.
The TrueTrac track saw kit is designed to integrate a Festool circular saw into a rigid, parallel guide rail system. Once mounted, the track controls the cut path, reducing drift and keeping the blade aligned from start to finish. This makes it easier to produce clean, straight cuts across panels, slabs, and sheet goods.
Manufactured in the USA and backed by a lifetime warranty, the TrueTrac system focuses on rigidity, alignment, and long-term reliability. It is built for users who care about accuracy without relying on improvised guides or one-off setups.
Why Choose our Track Saw Kit for your Festool Track Saw?
Festool saws are known for precision, but long cuts still depend on stable guidance. The TrueTrac system adds a fixed guide rail, allowing the saw to move smoothly while staying square to the cut.
Pinpoint accuracy. Forget wobble or misalignment. TrueTrac locks your Festool saw into place for razor-straight cuts every time.
Rugged durability. Built tough to handle real work, this parallel guide system doesn’t flinch under pressure.
Effortless precision. Glide through panels and slabs with control you can feel, delivering pro-level results without overthinking.
Lifetime warranty. You break it, we replace it. That’s how confident we are in our gear.
Stop settling for “good enough.” Upgrade your Festool circular saw with the TrueTrac Track Saw Kit today and make every cut count.

Festool Circular Saw with Guide Rail FAQs
What is a track saw good for?
A track saw is perfect for making straight, accurate cuts on large sheets of material like plywood, MDF, and doors. Using the TrueTrac Track System with your Festool Circular Saw ensures clean edges, ideal for cabinetry, furniture making, and other precision woodworking projects.
Can I use my Festool Circular Saw with the TrueTrac Track System?
Yes, the TrueTrac Universal Guide Rail System is compatible with Festool Circular Saws. You can convert your existing circular saw into a precision track saw, gaining the benefits of improved accuracy and safety.
Is a track saw better than a circular saw?
A track saw offers superior control and cleaner edges compared to a standard circular saw, especially on large panels. With the TrueTrac Track System, your Festool Circular Saw achieves precision similar to a dedicated track saw, making it ideal for detailed work.
Does my Festool Circular Saw fit the adapter plate?
Yes, almost any 6-1/2", 7-1/4", or 8-1/4" bladed Festool Circular Saw can be adapted to our system. The adapter plate is designed to fit virtually all models by aligning the flat surfaces of the plate and saw base.
Do I need to drill holes in the adapter plate?
Yes, you will need to drill custom holes for mounting your Festool Circular Saw to the adapter plate. Just ensure that you do not drill on the beveled edges, as they are used to guide the track.
Can I still use my Festool Circular Saw without the track system?
Yes, you can leave the adapter plate attached to your Festool Circular Saw and use it free-handed. The plate provides extra stability, making it even better for cutting off a 2x4 or similar tasks without using the track.
Should I countersink the holes I drill in the adapter plate?
Yes, countersinking the holes on the bottom side ensures the mounting hardware does not catch or scratch the track during use, maintaining smooth operation.
Why use bolts instead of clamps to mount the saw?
Bolting the Kreg Circular Saw to the adapter plate provides a consistent setup every time, ensuring accuracy. Clamps can be inconsistent, while bolting ensures that the saw and blade remain precisely aligned.
What kind of blade should I use with the TrueTrac Track System?
We recommend using a 40-tooth Diablo or CMT orange blade. These blades provide a balance between smooth plywood cuts and general-purpose use, making them ideal for most woodworking projects.
Is a track saw more useful than a table saw?
A track saw can be more practical for cutting large, heavy materials that are difficult to maneuver on a table saw. The TrueTrac Track System paired with a Kreg Circular Saw is portable and provides precise long cuts, making it a valuable alternative for many woodworking tasks.
What is a Festool track saw alternative?
A Festool track saw alternative is typically a guide rail system that allows you to use your existing circular saw with track-guided accuracy. Systems like Truetrac offer a similar outcome without requiring a dedicated track saw.
What is the difference between a Festool track saw and a guide rail system?
A Festool track saw is a purpose-built tool designed to run on a specific track system. A guide rail system allows you to use your existing circular saw with a track, offering more flexibility across different tools.
What is a Festool compatible track system?
A Festool compatible track system refers to a guide rail that works with a Festool circular saw. Some systems are brand-specific, while others focus on broader compatibility. Universal systems allow more flexibility across different saws.
