Lightweight yet durable, it’s the essential upgrade for professionals demanding flawless straight or bevel cuts on extended workpieces. ## Description The Makita 194638-5 55" Guide Rail Connectors are designed to join guide rails together to allow the user to make longer cuts while maintaining the accuracy they desire. The connectors install quickly for added convenience. These versatile connectors work with Makita guide rails as well as select competitor rails. Review: works great, but no instructions - Makita did a crap job of documenting or explaining this product. The "kit" comes with two bars, 5 set screws (one spare) and a hex wrench. The two bars both go into one of the t-track sections on the track, and you use the set screws from one to push against the second bar. This creates a nice tight fit, without gouging the set screws into the aluminum track. Since there are two t-track areas on the tracks, it is ideal to connect the tracks with two "kits". The kit is a bit overpriced for what it is, and there's an alternative Festool track joining bar that is cheaper. It works fine, however the festool doesn't use the two bar design, so the sets screws will screw directly onto your track and potentially gouge it if you're not careful. Another nice feature of the festool is the set screws use just a flat head, so no need to keep up with a hex wrench when you're joining track. Both work well, but I think the Makita is a better product. I'd spend the extra $10-20 for both makita kits over the festool and be done with it. Review: The connector works very well; but, it pays to look it over and think before you use it. - You use this to join two Makita Track Saw Guide Rails together. It works well when installed correctly. It seems obvious to just slide it in and tighten the screws; but, you may not be lucky with that approach. There are two plates and 4 set screws (and one spare set screw in the one I received). The plate without holes in it (#1) goes at the bottom of the groove in the track, the plate with the holes (#2) goes in on top of the first. There are some bumps on one of the plates to assist you in keeping the plates aligned with one another. Those bumps need to face the gap between the plates. The screws go into the holes of plate #2 and bear on plate #1. This is important because it prevents the hard steel screws from digging into the soft aluminum track. The screws effectively increase the space between the plates jamming #1 against the bottom of the groove and #2 up against the flanges at the top of the groove. Each screw needs to be bearing on plate #1 and plate #1 should be centered on plate #2 between the bumps. If the plates do not seem to fit into the groove it is likely because a screw is in too far or that one end of a plate is resting on a bump instead of between the bumps. Leverage is normally your friend; but, not in this case !!! Once you have the tracks joined; be careful while handling the assembly. The tracks are long and a little heavy. The connector is thin and it is only those little aluminum flanges at the top of the track groove and the strength of two thin steel plates that are keeping everything together. To avoid bending the track and/or connector plates, handle the track assembly with care. Try to minimize the load on the connector and adjacent flange surfaces. I recommend separating the track from the connector as soon as practical. If you are leaving it together for a long time, I'd consider buying the longer track and eliminating the risk to the rest of the system. ## Features - Joins Guide Rails for making longer dead-on straight or bevel cuts - Durable steel construction for long life - For use with Makita 118" Guide Rail (194367-7), 55" Guide Rail (194368-5), 39" Guide Rail (199140-0), as well as select competitor rails - Compatible with Festool, Bosch, and DeWALT track saw rails ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Brand | Makita | | Color | Black | | Connector Gender | Male-to-Female | | Item Length | 39 Inches | | Item Weight | 0.18 Kilograms | | UL Listed | No | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Makita - **Color:** Black - **Connector Gender:** Male-to-Female - **Item Weight:** 0.18 Kilograms - **UL Listed:** No ## Images ![P-45777 Guide Rail Connector Kit, Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41MQKMa7RGL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: The two bar is a system to use for the guide rails, rather than having the set screw tighten to the rail the set screws tighten up to the other plate** A: Yes the bars spread as you tighten the set screws Works better than the Festool bars **Q: Does anybody know where I can go to get instruction to put the track together?** A: Putting two tracks together for a longer track is real easy. Insert the rail connectors into the combined tracks use a straightedge alongside the tracks to keep them in line and tighten up the rail connector screws. I find leaving a business card space between the rails aids in the alignment **Q: Do you have to clamp the guide rail for cutting** A: In general I would say no need to clamp the rail guide. I got clamps just in case and have yet to use them and yet to have the rail slip on me. The nonslip back works, and the saw glides smoothly on the rail under it so there is no tendency for the rail to move. **Q: Does the kit come with extra set screws?** A: Yes it did. Make sure you purchase two connector kits. They come only as one and you will need the two to sufficiently hold the rails stable. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ works great, but no instructions *by T***M on December 13, 2018* Makita did a crap job of documenting or explaining this product.

They work just fine. Perfect customers across the joint every time. Even when I did a pour job aligning them vertically and the saw sort of hung up slightly the rip was flawless. The best part is now I don't have to store this massive long track someplace where it won't get bent. There is no free space in my shop so likely would have been stored near the wood stack which could have resulted in a bent and useless track.unless you woodwork professionally, and the extra 5 minutes of track setup over and over each day would hurt business, this is the way to go. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/4577060-p-45777-guide-rail-connector-kit-black](https://www.desertcart.in/products/4577060-p-45777-guide-rail-connector-kit-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
