Great retrofit for older Delta table saws
By A. Weed
Getting a table saw with a riving knife would be the ideal situation, but is cost prohibitive for me at this time. I currently have a Delta Unisaw made in 1998 that did not come with a blade guard or splitter when I bought it used. I looked at many of the splitting options available on the market and did not like the function of most of them. I especially did not like the tiny inserts that pin into the blade plate. I wanted something that would stay on the saw, but not be in the way. I don't like the splitters that have to be removed and put back on since it leaves an extra piece in the shop that has to be shifted around until you need it again. This Delta splitter was the perfect compromise.It mounts very easily with no modifications needed. It is very durable and not wider than my standard blade. It extends and retracts easily without setting any mechanisms, simply slide up and down and it will stay in place. It has a tab on top of it so you can pull it up easily with one finger and so you can push it down easily with your palm.I don't use thin kerf blades, so I cannot speak for its compatibility with them.Lining it up with the blade was no trouble since the holes are a little wider for that fine adjustment. Even though the holes are a little wider, this device has not shifted and maintained it proper position.It came with all hardware needed. It ships with a greasy coating on the cast iron mounting plate, but it can be easily cleaned off.This item may seem expensive for how much material went into it, but I bit the bullet and have not regretted it since. It's either spend money on this splitter or spend $1k to $3k on a new cabinet saw.

By StainlessSteel
I purchased this disappearing splitter for my right tilt Unisaw for 2 reasons: 1 This splitter moves up and down verticaly allowing you to not have to remove it for dados. Just remove your throat plate to move your splitter up or down. 2 This splitter works in conjunction with my HTC Brett Guard with NO clearance issues- I could not do that with the Biesemeyer removable splitter. Remember, this is for RIGHT TILT SAWS!!!

This is, by far, the best safety device I've ever used on a table saw. It installs quickly and does exactly what it is supposed to do - act as a 'riving knife' to keep boards being ripped from pinching the tablesaw blade and kicking back at the operator. I used three of these for thirteen years running a high school cabinetmaking shop program, and never had a board kick back at me or any of my students - and here we're talking about literally thousands of operations performed by high school students just learning how to rip safely. I'm no longer a teacher, but just bought one of these for my own Delta Unisaw at home. Best insurance policy I could buy. Highly recommended.
