Make your own zero-clearance throat plate and save! This kit includes two phenolic plates for only a little more than the cost of one pre-cut plate! Just rout to the size you need with a Shear Cutting Flush Trim Bit (#24740, sold separately). Also works great for band saws, scroll saws, jigs and fences. Phenolic is extremely hard for optimum durability and provides friction-free sliding. It's so hard that traditional drill bits have a hard time getting through. No problem!

1) Submitted by Byron Bingham, from Honeyville, UT on 4/11/2009 Customer Rating: I followed the instructions and the insert fits perfectly.
2) Submitted by David Elkow, from Lexington, KY on 11/15/2008 Customer Rating: I often wondered why a phenolic insert has not been available for the Bosch 4000 Table Saw, from anywhere. When I spotted this kit in the Rockler catalog, I said "Great, now I can make one!" Well, now I know why they have not been available. It took quite a bit of machine work to the underside of the insert to make a fit to the Bosch table (see photo). But, alas, I got-r-done and have a nice zero clearance insert. Thanks Rockler !

3) Submitted by Dave Freiberg, from Rocklin, CA on 9/21/2008 I purchased the new Jet Proshop Hybrid. The insert is 15". Therefore this product does not work on this saw. I have to a friend who is using it on his Dewalt.
4) Submitted by rawdawgs, from Orlando, FL on 5/20/2008 Customer Rating: Excellent product. Phenolic is super hard. Forget trying to use regular drill bits. They makes a mess of this stuff. I broke down and bought the special bits from Rockler. Works much better.
5) Submitted by Chris Cloutier, from Bridgton, ME on 2/26/2008 Customer Rating: Worked great.
6) Submitted by Greg, from Clinton, MA on 2/18/2008 Customer Rating: I bought this kit and had problems at first with the Countersink drill bit breaking after doing only one hole. Rockler was great at replacing these and after some experimenting with the drill bit speed, I can recommend using a speed of 250 RPM. If you use higher speeds, the bit may break.
