17-Inch Miter Bars and Slot Runners for Crosscut Sleds, 2-Pack - PTA024

Aluminum Miter Bars and Slot Runners for Crosscut Sleds

Build a crosscut sled or workshop jig around a pair of O'SKOOL PTA024 aluminum miter bars. These miter slot runners come as a pair of 17-inch bars with adjustable expansion discs. Fit them to compatible table saw miter slots to reduce side-to-side play in your sled or jig.

What the Runners Add to Your Build

• ✓Adjustable fit: use the included 2.5mm hex key to adjust the expansion discs.
• ✓Aluminum construction: the anodized-aluminum bars provide an alternative to wooden sled runners.
• ✓Mounting options: countersunk holes provide attachment points for custom jigs and fixtures.
• ✓Two bars per kit: plan the runner layout around the sled or jig you are building.

Dimensions and Included Hardware

• ✓Two 17-inch miter bars, with a stated 3/4 × 3/8-inch profile
• ✓Twelve #8 wood screws, 3/4 inch long
• ✓Eight 1/4-20 UNC countersunk machine screws
• ✓One 2.5mm hex key and an instruction manual

Fit the Runners to Your Table

Measure your slot's width, depth and profile before ordering. The stated bar size does not establish compatibility with every table saw or general-purpose T-track. During setup, adjust the expansion discs and check for side play and binding along the full working length.

Miter Bar Fit and Adjustment Checklist

1. Compare your slot with the stated 3/4 × 3/8-inch bar profile, including the slot depth and shape.
2. Plan the position of both 17-inch runners and the mounting hardware for your crosscut sled or custom jig.
3. Use the included 2.5mm hex key to adjust the expansion discs as described in the PTA024 user manual.
4. Check for side-to-side play and binding along the full working length before using the completed jig.

Common Questions

Can I use these as table saw sled runners?

Yes, for a crosscut sled designed around compatible miter slots. Choose the mounting position and hardware to suit your sled construction.

Are miter bars and miter slot runners different products here?

Both terms refer to the two aluminum runner bars in this PTA024 kit.

Can I build other jigs with them?

The mounting holes also support custom fixtures such as box joint and tenon jigs. The runner bars are components for your build; a completed jig is not included.
