About This Product

Precision Guide Rails for Cutting, Beveling and Polishing

The Alpha® Guide Rail System provides a straight, stable reference for precision stone fabrication. The redesigned rails feature an integrated track for compatible Alpha carriage assemblies, allowing the carriage wheels to travel smoothly along the rail for controlled cutting, beveling, grinding, and polishing applications.

Cast Aluminum Rails for Countertops and Slabs

The guide rails are constructed from sturdy cast aluminum and are available in 4', 7', and 12' configurations. The 4' rail is well suited for countertop trimming at the job site, seamless countertop preparation, and side-edge bevel grinding and polishing. The longer 7' and 12' rails provide the working length needed for slab cutting and fabrication along the main edges of countertops.

Carriage Compatibility for Straight and Miter Cutting

The system works with application-specific carriage assemblies for compatible Alpha stone cutters. The ASC-5CSM carriage supports straight cutting with the ESC-125 Wet/Dry Stone Cutter, while the ASC-6CSM carriage supports straight and miter cutting with the PSC-150 Wet Stone Cutter. The guide rail can remain positioned on the material while the cutter setup is configured for precise edge fabrication.

Bevel Grinding and Edge Polishing Applications

When paired with the BAB-CASM Carriage Assembly and BAB1590 Beveling Auxiliary Base, the guide rail supports controlled grinding, beveling, and polishing for straight edges, chamfers, and more complex edge profiles. It can also support precision miter grinding for laminated waterfall edges on thin porcelain panels up to 1/2" thick, providing an alternative to technically demanding miter cutting.

Individual Rails and Complete Guide Rail Bundle

The system is available as individual 4', 7', and 12' guide rails or as a bundle containing all three sizes. Individual rails include two clamps, while the 12' configuration consists of two 6' sections and includes a connector and four screws. The complete bundle includes the 4', 7', and 12' rails, six clamps, one connector, and four screws.
