Your Table Saw Has Two Miter Slots, So Use Both Of Them!

The Infinity Tools TCS-200 Professional Saw Crosscut Sled leverages the relatively universal design of the table saw—trimming a bit of the fat but also taking advantage of some of that machine’s basic attributes to maximize efficiency. With 12 inches of cutting capacity, this new sled keeps things relatively simple, but has features that even the most complex systems seem to overlook.

Features:

Dual Zero Clearance Throat Plates - The TCS-200 has two replaceable HDPE Zero Clearance Throat Plates on either side of the sled and will work on both miter slot of most saws.* Move from a zero clearance 90° cross cut to a zero clearance cut of a different blade bevel or kerf—or even a dado stack—simply by switching slots.
Replaceable Parts for Endless Zero Clearance Setups - If two zero clearance options isn't enough, we also offer the TCS-200.CRP Replacement Kit. The Replacement Kit includes another sacrificial rear fence and two additional throat plates. You could even switch between a cabinet saw in the shop to a contractor saw on the jobsite. Quick Tip: mark and retain your extra fences and plates with the blade kerf and angle, to easily switch between tailor-made zero clearance set ups on every cut you make.
Flip Stop - Make quick work of repetitive cuts with the included flip stop. It slides along the t-track top rail, allowing it to be positioned anywhere along the fence. When you’re done, just flip it up and out of the way.
Toggle Clamp Hold Down - Helpful for longer workpieces or where you want to prevent a drop off piece from tilting, negating the need for a separate offcut platform. Like the flip stop, it is mounted to the top rail for variable positioning. 100-660 Toggle Clamp Kit also available separately
- Heavy Duty Vertical Toggle Clamp - 500 lb. clamping force
- Oversize Swiveling Clamp Foot - swivel mounted foot over an inch in diameter with a 6-inch spindle, accommodates a vast array of shapes and sizes.
Zero Play Miter Bar - Spring loaded ball detents set into the miter bar ensure the sled will fit tightly in most any miter slot, with very little slop
Blade Guard and Handle - The Removable Blade Guard deflects chips and helps keep your hands safely away from the blade. The robust handle provides secure grip for handling the sled and also doubles as a convenient hanger.
Sturdy Plycore Construction with MicroDot Laminate - Constructed from ¾” void free plycore with MicroDot laminate on all top and inner surfaces and melamine laminate on the bottom and outer surfaces.
Cut Capacity - The TCS-200 is 12" deep for cross cuts on wide pieces. The sled’s nearly 24” width provides support on both sides of the blade.

*Let us beat you to the punch: yes, you can probably find a saw with which our sled is not compatible. Rest assured, however, we have meticulously tested this sled on every table saw we could get our hands on, and tried to gather as many specs as possible from manufacturers to make sure our sled works with the most makes and models, within the given dimensional parameters. This sled is designed to work with table saws with standard ¾” x 3/8” miter tracks 4-½” to 7-1/2” measured from the center of the track to the saw blade. If uncertain, please get in contact with us and we'd be happy to help you out.

Infinity Tools TCS-200 Pro Crosscut Sled Instructions

Table Saw Crosscut Sled

The Infinity Tools TCS-200 Professional Crosscut Sled is packed with features that set it apart from other cross-cutting platforms currently on the market. Our sled is accurate straight out of the box so no adjustment is needed to make square cuts. It is the embodiment of innovative design thoughtfully applied to a very simple concept.

The "right"-sized crosscut sled features multple cutting locations and lots of extras!

Do you need a table saw crosscut sled? Every table saw I've purchased came with a very nice rip fence, and a barely adequate miter gauge. Should I assume that table saws are designed more for ripping? Seems like I do an awful lot of crosscutting and mitering on my saw! And while a better miter gauge is a good idea, I like an upgrade to a crosscut sled.

I’ve worked with simple sleds that were a piece of plywood, a screwed-on hardwood fence, and a miter bar on the bottom. And also some very fancy sleds with more add-ons than a Swiss Army knife! I think the new Professional Crosscut Sled from Infinity finds the sweet spot in the middle!

Able to cut a 12" wide board, the table saw crosscut sled offers capacity and stability.

Start with a Stable Base

You want a stable platform that’s large enough to support a good sized-board, both in capacity and while cutting. The TCS-100 is deep enough to crosscut a 12”-wide board. And the nearly 24” width provides support on both sides of the blade. I’d call that a perfect size. Wider than that and you could simply use your rip fence. But less than that width you need the safe and stable support of a crosscut sled.

The MicroDot finish on the table top and fence surface provide a low-friction contact when moving workpieces.

The core of the sled table is constructed from ¾”-thick, void-free, high-density plywood (the best and most stable option for jigs and fixtures!). The underside sports melamine laminate to let the sled move more easily over the table saw’s surface. And the top side of the table has a MicroDot laminate coating that creates a low-friction surface for easily adjusting workpieces.

Lots of Cutting Options for Best Performance

The TCS-100 has one miter bar that uses spring-loaded ball detents to adjust for a tight fit in nearly any miter slot. The table saw crosscut sled can be repositioned to the miter slot on either side of the blade allowing for two cutting areas on the sled. Both of these cutting locations feature replaceable HDPE Zero Clearance Throat Plates. One plate can be set up for 90° cross cuts, while the other can be set up for miter cuts — or even a dado stack — simply by switching slots.

Lots of helpful accessories easily attached to the aluminum fence rail.

The front and rear fences mount in precisely-machined slots in the sled base. These slots are squared to the sled, providing even greater accuracy. A sacrificial (and replaceable) fence is mounted to the rear fence and a quality extruded aluminum top rail is mounted to that. Our unique deep-throat hold-down clamp solidly mounts to the top rail — with 500-lbs of holding power — to keep your cuts accurate and prevent drop-off pieces from tilting, negating the need for a separate offcut platform.

The deep-throat hold-down clamp will accept a 6"-thick piece.

Accessories Make the Sled

The top rail also provides mounting locations for the removable blade guard. The guard is great for deflecting chips and helps keep your hands safely away from the blade. The precision flip stop can be positioned anywhere along the fence for accurate repeat cuts.

The oversized handle makes it easy to store the sled out of the way.

The robust handle makes it easy to move the table saw crosscut sled. And when you're done using the sled, the handle will even double as a convenient hanger for storing!

A replacement kit (Part # TCS-200.CRP) is available for more variety in set cuts, or just for when the table saw crosscut sled needs a little sprucing up.

Replenishable Resources

Table saw crosscut sleds get cut up in use. That’s why I’m particularly fond of the available replacement kit (Part # TCS-200.CRP). The kit includes another sacrificial rear fence and two additional throat plates. Not only good for when the sled is showing wear, but the extra throat plates make it easy to keep zero clearance tolerances for a number of cutting operations.

If you’re looking for a sensible upgrade for your table saw, look no further. The Infinity Table Saw Crosscut Sled has the capacity and features you need, and the accuracy you require!
