Extra large OFF paddle switch is perfect for a table saw. Simple to install and it works great. Best thing is it adds extra safety for a quick shut off if needed.

Necesitaba seguridad en mi herramienta sobre todo la sierra de inglete y este apagador me la da así como facilidad de colocación ya que funciona como una extensión.Se que mi seguridad no tiene precio pero esta un poco caro para lo que es, sin embargo no encontré nada mejor en el mercado.

I bought a similar item but different brand a few years ago. It was cheaper. And far more difficult to set up. The old one came with no wiring, and required the use of wire clips. I had to use 12 gauge cable coming in and going out of the box. The old one made a loud humming noise that got worse over time. And when I disassembled it to install the new one, I saw that a lot of the contacts had overheated. This new one had generous three prong cords coming and going, very easy to connect to table saw. Well made. Worth the extra cost.

Quality is great! I use it for my custom router table. ON button is raised from switch body making it easy to access without looking and OFF paddle is big and easy to hit. Great value!

I added a router table extension to my table saw and use this switch to safely turn the router on and off. It's very plastic, but seems to work okay. I would prefer more of a solid click when turning on and off, but the off is reliable, which is the most important part. There are two holes for mounting the switch, one on the top and the other on the bottom. Since these are nearly always mounted under a table of some kind, it would be better if the mounting supported that direction instead of requiring that you make a bracket to mount onto. Also, the bottom hole is directly behind where the cords come out of the box, so you can't reach it with a screwdriver at all. I had to fasten it from the back and use a bolt through with a nut on the front side.

5th one for my woodshop power tools now. MAYBE a little on the light side if you put it on a 2hp table saw and rip 8/4 continuously, but I have seen no issues on my '95 craftsman 113, twin '57 MBF RAS, or a Delta 14" BS.I appreciate the size, ability to fit in a spot, functionality, and the similar" emergency bump stop" on my sharps. There is no "lockout" key or tab on this style - which is OK and works in my shop, for me anyway.This one went on the vintage Craftsman router table recently dug out from the nether regions to use on multiple router table setups, for things like rails and stiles.She's a screamer from '85 for sure...

Beware this does have an 18 awg (American Wire Gauge) gauge power cord. You can run 10 amps on an 18 awg cord, according to U.S. laws and NEC code. The NEC code does not allow a 15 amp circuit for a house or building on anything smaller than 14 awg, which is significantly larger (visibly 50% larger) than 18 awg. So if you're running a power tool, generally your cords, power cord, extension cord, and wiring in the wall, should be a 14 gauge, or 12 gauge.You can use 16 awg for a short power cord, from the tool, to the wall outlet, because the manufactures consider that some loss of power is ok, but the risk is, a small power cord can create significantly more heat if run at or near 15 amps. The general rule is, for 15 amp saws, induction motors, planers, jointers, sanders, routers, pipe threaders, 1/2" drills, should be run on a 15 amp power cord, meaning 14 awg wire.Using 18 awg for a heavy duty power tool, even for the power cord, is not really acceptable. An 18 gauge wire, although of course it will work, it does introduce some risk of melting or overheating in extreme use cases. The wire will likely get warm, at least warm to the touch, and potentially hot if you're doing vacuuming or running a large dust collector motor with a 1.5 hp 17 amp motor, or using a steady state sander or router, or something with a high amp draw.For short, quick bursts, like a nailer with a small pancake air compressor that only runs for 1 minute, it doesn't matter what kind of cord you use, you can use a wisp of trash for the wiring. But for continuous duty tools, you cannot use 18 gauge wire, because it's not approved by the NEC for building wiring specifications, and it's really not safe. It's actually not safe, it can overheat and cause a fire hazard.Regarding this switch, if you could replace the cords with 14 awg wire, it would be ideal. But the switch is high quality, it has a good solid feel when you push the start button. And it's very easy to shut off, requiring very little effort. I have the switch mounted sideways and it works fine, although you do need gravity to pull the "STOP" paddle down, because it's not spring loaded.I mounted this switch under a radial arm saw, on the edge of the table, so you can do rip cuts without trying to fumble with the radial arm power switch which is located near the motor.This is a really good product, and for the money, I will be buying another one, because it's a good value. Be careful opening the package, it was shipped in a loose bag, and I didn't realize there were wires inside, so I cut open the bag with a razor knife and cut into the 18 awg power cord on this switch. That's my fault. But just be careful opening it, there isn't' any padding in the package.Good product. Search Amazon for 14 awg "SO CORD" or 14 awg 12 foot power cord. Try to find one that is flexible and soft. Or cut a cord off an old power tool you are throwing away, and then you can upgrade the cord to this.I've used it with no problems, and it doesn't affect the performance of a radial arm saw with a 10 amp motor.

I like the fact that it was literally plug and cut. No working on connections and most importantly I now have a safe panic button when using the old saw that has rithing knife. Will be buying another for my next project.
