Festool FS-WA Angle Stop

At a Glance: Precision angle stop for Festool FS/2 guide rails, allowing accurate and repeatable angled panel cuts from -60° to +60° with quick-clamping, tool-free adjustment and self-aligning rail attachment.

The Festool FS-WA angle stop is a high-precision guide rail accessory designed for fast, accurate and repeatable angled cuts with compatible Festool FS/2 guide rails. It is ideal for panel cutting, trim work, cabinetry, furniture making, site fitting and any application where angled cuts need to be made cleanly and confidently with a portable circular saw or plunge-cut saw.

With an angular range from -60° to +60°, the FS-WA gives users excellent flexibility for straight, angled and repeated cuts. The quick-clamping lever attaches the stop to the guide rail quickly and without tools, while the self-aligning design helps ensure the system sits correctly on the rail. A long contact edge and viewing window make alignment with the workpiece easier, and additional positioning bolts provide a safer support area, including when working with materials that have rounded workpiece edges. For even more repeatable cutting to length, the system can be extended with the optional FS-WA-VL guide extension.
