Reminiscent of the design of European table saw fences the SawStop T-Glide Advance Rip Fence delivers unmatched accuracy, versatility, and ease of use.

Featuring a dovetail-shaped slot for secure mounting of feather boards, sacrificial fences, and jigs, the T-Glide Advance adapts to any project while keeping safety at the forefront.

The fence face slides forward of the blade for repeatable crosscuts while reducing the chance of the offcut pinching and kicking back. The Hi-Low aluminum extrusion and separate scale indicators ensure precise, dependable alignment every time.

Smooth operation is guaranteed with twin rollers supporting the tail end of the tube, making adjustments effortless and repeatable. Whether your work involves fine woodworking or heavy-duty projects, the SawStop T-Glide Advance Rip Fence delivers confidence, precision, and durability in every cut.

The T-Glide Advance Rip Fence is available with any SawStop Industrial Cabinet Saw, Professional Cabinet Saw, or Contractor Saw.
The upgraded fence is also available as an aftermarket retrofit, dropping directly onto existing T-Glide rails. Since no modifications are required, the changeover takes only seconds.

Available in two sizes for the PCS and CNS, or ICS which has a deeper table.

There was a discussion at another forum about this product, whether, for the price, it included the rail.

The product photos are surely misleading as not one single photo there shows the fence alone by itself, conveying the impression that the fence and the the rail are what a buyer will get.

A simple fix to avoid misunderstangs is to add a note of "Rail not included" in the photos.
 
It appears the 349/399 price is the fence only, which makes sense. To include the rails, you would have to choose length.


It's in the "build and price" page on the web site with a $147 price difference between the regular T-Glide and "Advanced".
 
SawStop has always been to buy the Fence seperately. What is REALLY weird, if you buy the rails, you don't get the hardware kit to attach them to the machine - that bolt kit comes IN the fence box. All you get with the rails is the actual rails.

I changed from a 36 to a 52" setup and when I sold the 36" setup the person was confused why they didn't get the bolts and I showed them when they bought the fence they get it. I told them i would refund if they didn't get it - got a FB message a few days later saying the bolts were in the Fence box.
 
Hey @ChuckS! The photos that SawStop originally provided left a lot to be desired, but currently, the lead image does show just the T-fence, which is what you get if you purchase the fence on its own. That's how it can be installed in seconds - you simply drop it in (recommended to check and adjust it, too). In other words, if you already have a SawStop with a T-Glide fence, you can buy the T-Glide Advance as well and you'd end up with one table saw with two fences - perfect for if you happen to have a router in the wing, so you can have one fence dedicated for the saw and one for the router.
