"One" package contains two bars
They fit my laguna table saw perfectly, no slop. and will be great as this material doesn't change size with temperature and humidity like wood can.Just note that one package of this contains two bars.

Worked well and allowed for adjustment.
I used a pair of these as runners for a table saw sled. The were a little snug, but a few swipes with a hand plane made everything copasetic. The fact that I could plane these a bit, made them much more desirable than metal runners.

Perfect fit and very slick, but...
These sticks worked great for the sliders on my table saw sled. They were a perfect fit out of the package and slid really really well in my miter slots. My only negative is that you have to be VERY careful when attaching them to the jig because they will mushroom/bulge if you over tighten the screws, even ever so slightly. I predrilled and countersunk my screws and still had bulging issues, despite my efforts. Fortunately, with a little paste wax, they are still operating fine, but I do have a sticking point because of it. I figure the more I use the sled, the bulge will wear down over time for a really good overall fit. Overall, I would recommend them, but just be aware of that. I do like that they won't change shape with seasonal weather changes and all that.

Consistent width
These will be used as miter slot runners, so the width is critical. Just out of the package, mine measure 0.747 - 0.748 wide, over their entire lengths.This is good, but it would be even better if they were the full 0.750 - it's easy to remove a thousandth or two with a block plane, but not so easy to add.

Works well in the slots on my Dewalt DW7480 table saw (Crosscut sled)
No issues. When you tighten the screws (I went bottom up into the sled), the material will bulge slightly and tighten in the miter slots. I'd countersunk the holes, but I'd screw to just snug and tighten only if you get lateral freeplay.

Simple product, difficult to use
This product is exactly what it says it is, and I really want to like it, but..... The simple idea behind this product is to locate these strips in the miter channel of your table saw, and then build a square (or angled) cutting platform on top of them. First, the strips are tight in my saw, and even though they are smooth and slick, they don’t slide easily in the channel (saws might vary of course). I tried to use both channels on my table, but with two attached it literally would not budge. I had to remove one of them. I also ruined one length while using a 1/2 drill bit tip to make a screw countersink. The bit grabbed the strip and instead of a little digit, I made an oblong 1/2 hole. Did it twice in fact. That was with a drill press - you need to clamp them down. For the small through hole, I ended up drilling all those twice. This material melts when drilled, so the hole fills back in a little. I found it best to drill the holes larger than normal, so there is some slight wobble in them. This helped in two ways. As other reviewers mention, if the screw or screw head is too tight, it makes a bulge in the channel. They are already so tight that even the slightest bulge puts the brakes on the movement. Also, if your holes are not EXACTLY aligned, and the channel has the slightest curve, again it will not move. If your holes are just a little larger than normal, and you don’t overtighten the screws, then it allows just a tiny movement of the channel side to side - TINY, but enough that the channel runs straight overall. You want to be able to push the shoulder of the screw through the hole with no effort. On a 24” deep sled with 24” strips, I used 4 countersunk screws. So, as simple as this application is, they are fairly tricky to get just right. Do NOT overtighten, it is hard to get that bulge removed. My final sled works fine, and is square. I am going to put a square of clear acrylic on the near edge, as a blade guard at the end of the cut. One mistake I made for sure, on the bottom side of the sled, be sure to run the strip with the grain of the wood. I didn’t, and I think that makes my sled a little ‘stickier’ than it should be because of the extra friction.

Perfect fit for a Rigid 4513 table saw
Perfect fit, height and zero slop/play in the miter slots of my Rigid 4513 table saw. They glide so slick yet I've never waxed the slots. These are going to be perfect for the 3x3 cross-cut sled I'm building.

Bad stuff for miter bars.
Terrible material for miter bars. Glue doesn't stick to this stuff so your left with lining it up but the material is so floppy it's hard to keep it straight. Also the counter sink screws distort the edges of the screw is driven just a hair to deep.I'm sending this worthless garbage back.

Milled bar
Have not used it yet but looks like they will work for what I purchased them for

Measured with digital caliper and the size was right
1 The problem is in the track on the saw itself that is not accurate, I bought some UHDP tape and trying to adjust the thickness but not sure how long before it peels2 since the description states the material has molecular memory, that means the way it is attached to the jig determine how straight it will be, if you count on alignment of the bar itself and screw everything together , you won’t get a good result, it needs a metal guide when attaching to the jig
