XT4 L-Fence System
Transform your XTender Fence into a precision pattern and taper cutting system with full visibility and control.
XT4 L-Fence for the Bow XTender Fence System
The XT4 L-Fence turns your Bow XTender Fence into a precision pattern-cutting and guiding system for the
table saw and bandsaw. Rigid dual L-brackets, a clear acrylic guide plate, and an integrated
follower deliver safer duplication cuts, repeatable tapers, and controlled curves—without building a jig.
Key Benefits
- XTender-only precision fit: Slides into the XTender T-track with T-bolts for fast install, rigid mounting, and repeatable alignment.
- Blade capture for safer pattern cuts: On the table saw, the blade runs captured beneath the fence and behind the workpiece for controlled duplication.
- Clear acrylic visibility: Transparent guide plate keeps the cut line visible while supporting the workpiece.
- Adjustable height control: Simple vertical slot adjustment; set about 1/16″ above your stock for smooth feed.
- Built-in stop capability: Position it in front of the blade for repeatable crosscuts while keeping material clear of the rip fence.
- Short-fence advantage: Fence stops at the blade (sliding-saw style) to help reduce binding on short parts.
- Bandsaw-optimized divot: Acrylic plate includes a relief divot to correctly position the bandsaw blade for guided cutting.
-
Adjustable guide follower for curves: Follower installs under the fence to help prevent drifting into layout lines in heavy-grain material.
Dual compatibility: 1/4″ and 3/8″ blade support.
- Rough-out + router workflow: Leave 1/64″–1/32″ on the bandsaw, then clean up fast at the router table with reduced tear-out and burning.
- On-tool follower storage + factory rigidity: Follower stores on the device; precision brackets deliver repeatable results without jig building.
Compatibility
Works exclusively with the Bow XTender Fence System.
Not compatible with standard rip fences or third-party fence systems.
What’s Included
- Two precision L-brackets
- Clear acrylic L-Fence guide plate (with bandsaw relief divot)
- Adjustable dual-position guide follower (1/4″ & 3/8″ blade support)
- Two T-bolts
- Three Bow knobs
- Four small machine screws
- One large machine screw
- All required XTender mounting hardware
Ideal Applications
- Template and pattern duplication on the table saw
- Tapered edge and face cuts
- Repetitive short crosscuts using stop positioning
- Safe duplication of small angled parts (use a miter gauge for angle control)
- Bandsaw rough-out prior to routing (leave 1/64″–1/32″)
- Controlled radius and curved cuts with the follower
- Cleaner results in materials prone to burning or tear-out
FAQs
Do I need the XTender Fence for the XT4 to work?
Yes. The XT4 is engineered specifically for the Bow XTender Fence System and will not mount to standard fences.
Can I use the XT4 on both table saws and bandsaws?
Yes. Use it on the table saw for pattern duplication, tapers, and stop work. On the bandsaw, use the relief divot and follower for guided rough-out and controlled curves.
Why choose XT4 over a DIY L-Fence?
XT4 delivers factory-precise rigidity, blade capture design, integrated follower control, and stop capability—faster setup, safer cuts, and repeatable accuracy without building a jig.
