Fulton Safety Push Block 2 Pack, Orange Color for High Visibility Ideal for Use On Router Tables, Jointers, Shapers and Band Saws

Product Description

Control stock while keeping your fingers away from danger…

Push blocks are an essential part of workshop safety. Whenever we need to push stock through on router tables, band saws, jointers, shapers and in some cases table saws, it is always a good idea to keep our fingers away from the blade or cutter. This push block has been designed with exactly that in mind. The block is made from a heavy polyethylene plastic that absorbs any sort of shock. It won’t crack or shatter if dropped and it won’t crack or shatter if it comes into contact with a blade or cutter. This makes the push block the perfect safety accessory for any work shop environment.

Push Blocks can be used on multiple machines, in multiple ways

Router Table

One of the more common uses, the push block works exceptionally well when feeding stock through on a router table. Simple downward and inward pressure keeps the stock up against the fence while at the same time keeping your fingers away from harm.

Free Hand Routing with Two Push Blocks

Free hand routing can be a little tricky. Typically free hand routing is done on curved or round stock and keeping your fingers away from the cutter can prove to be a challenge. Using two push blocks not only keeps your fingers away from danger, but allows you to control your stock when feeding it though the cutter.

Band Saw Re-Saw Applications

Re-sawing is a common use for band saws. Using a push block to feed your stock through the blade makes this process safer by keeping your fingers away from the blade at all times.

Double Up for More Power on the Jointer

When jointing or planing wider stock on a jointer, it can be tough to feed the stock through the cutters. The jointer generates a lot of power. Using two push blocks at a time on your stock helps you place the much needed downward force to feed your stock through the cutters.

Heavy Duty Material for Everyday Workshop Use!

Stands up to the everyday workshop environment!

The push block is made from a heavy duty, injected molded, polyethylene plastic material. This material is very thick or dense and provides the user with a substantial feel in there hand when using it. This along with the angled, molded handle grip gives you more leverage than straight vertical style push blocks.

Soft, Receptive Foam Rubber Pad for Gripping Your Stock

Soft, receptive, rubber foam pads line the base of the push block. The rubber pads make pushing, gripping and controlling your stock much easier and safer than doing it free handed. The pad is is approximately 3/16″ thick and works on many different types of materials

Keep it clean

The rubber pads are easily washable with warm water. The pad must be completely dry before using againDo not use paper towels to wipe off the pad. We recommend using a microfiber or cotton cloth.

Ideal for router tables, band saws, jointers and shapers. Made from heavy duty material to stand up to the everyday workshop enviornment.
Push blocks are designed to be one of your essential safety devices to help provide protection and prevent your fingers from getting too close to cutters or blades on a router table, band saw, shaper or a jointer. Push blocks work well in multiple situations throughout your woodworking projects and are intended to be used any time your fingers are close to being in harms way.
Push blocks can be used one at a time like when feeding stock through your router table with a fence or you could use two at a time for extra downward pressure like when you would feed stock through on a jointer. They also work well on band saws for re-saw applications and can also be used on shapers much in the same way they are used on router tables.
This Push Block has been intentionally made in a bright SAFETY ORANGE color for high visibility when in use. This provides the user the ability to see exactly where their hands are at during the cutting or milling process. The bright SAFETY ORANGE color also allows you to easily find the device when it’s not in its normal location.
The 3″ x 6″ soft, receptive, rubber sole foam pads line the base of the push block. The rubber soles make pushing and controlling your stock much easier and safer than doing it free handed. The rubber soles are easily washable with warm water. You must let the rubber soles completely dry prior to using them again after cleaning them.
Each push block is made from a thick, injection molded polyethylene plastic. This makes ideal for workshop or wood shop working environments where things tend to go through heavy wear and tear on a daily basis.
