SawStop Dado Lock Down Insert

Needed a zero-clearance insert for making half-half-half drawers. Worked perfectly. It’s the only one of my inserts that I don’t need a lever to remove. Smooth operation. Well worth the price.

Easy to setup & allows for accurate joints.

This is a SawStop Dado Insert blank, as described in the description. Works well with the saw, as designed. Just as good as buying from the manufacturer, but buying here saves on shipping cost and time.

I thought about making one as I did for my Jet contractor saw but decided to purchase this for convenience sake.

fits as expected

A necessary replacement when I accidentally damaged the original insert. Actually, have two and this one has only a 90 degree slot to make it a near zero clearance slot. Another is cut for angled cuts and that means a slightly wider slot. The zero degree clearance seems to give smoother edges. The design makes changing blades or adding or removing the dust shield a snap. Love almost everything about my SawStop including this insert

I recently bought this as zero clearance insert for crosscut blade. A little pricey but I like that it locks down like all the SS inserts do. Will buy another when I buy a dado set. Sawstop quality justifies spending a little more in my opinion.

I was a little iffy cutting through this at first with my new dado not knowing if it would set of my cartridge but all went well. In case you don't know you have to put on your dado blades, lower it all the way down, turn it on and then crank the blade up into the insert for a custom fit. If you don't have room on the bolt for all your dado blades I was told by their great costumer service to take off the washer after a half inch. Hope this helps someone because I was unsure at first
