SawStop: The Leader in Table Saw Safety and Quality
Every cut, every project, every piece of craftsmanship begins with trust — trust in your skill, your tools, and your safety. SawStop has earned that trust by centering its entire philosophy around one unwavering promise: protect the woodworker. In a craft where a single moment can change a life, SawStop stands alone as the brand that refuses to accept preventable injuries as “part of the job.”
A Safety System Designed to Shield What Matters Most
At the heart of every SawStop machine is a technology created for one purpose: to stop a life-changing accident before it happens. SawStop’s Active Injury Mitigation (AIM) System constantly monitors the blade, sensing the difference between wood and human skin in real time. The moment skin contact is detected, the saw reacts immediately, slamming an aluminum brake into the blade and dropping it beneath the table in less than five milliseconds.
It’s not just innovation. It’s protection you can feel.
It’s peace of mind you can’t put a price on.
And SawStop’s safety doesn’t stop at the skin-sensing technology. Blade guards, anti-kickback pawls, and thoughtful physical safeguards create a layered defense system designed to prevent danger long before the AIM system ever needs to activate.
How the Technology Protects You
- Detect: The blade carries a small electrical signal that changes when it contacts skin. This changes activates the brake.
- Stop: An aluminum brake springs into the path of the blade. The blade comes to a complete stop and power to the motor is shut off.
- Drop: After the blade comes to a stop, the blade’s angular momentum drives it beneath the table, removing the risk of subsequent contact. All of this happens in less than 5 milliseconds.
- Reset: Resetting the saw yourself is easy. Simply inspect the blade (and change if damaged) and replace the brake cartridge. The saw is ready to be used again within minutes.
This isn’t theoretical. It’s proven. And it has saved thousands of woodworkers from devastating injuries.
Strength, Precision, and Protection in Every Detail
Safety is the soul of SawStop, but quality is its backbone. These machines are engineered to stand up to years of demanding work — from jobsite saws that travel from truck to site, to industrial cabinet saws built for the heaviest workloads. Massive trunnions, rigid construction, and finely machined components ensure accuracy that doesn’t drift and performance that doesn’t compromise.
Every fence, every dust collection feature, every accessory is designed with the same care: to make your work smoother, cleaner, and safer.
Because Your Craft Deserves a Tool That Protects You
Woodworking is more than a trade, it’s a passion, a livelihood, a legacy. SawStop understands that behind every project is a pair of hands that are irreplaceable. That’s why SawStop builds saws that don’t just cut beautifully. They protect fiercely.
Frequently Aske Questions:
I have a table saw made by another company. Do you sell a kit to retrofit your safety system into other table saws?
- No. It is not economically practical to retrofit other manufacturers’ table saws. The structural changes necessary to incorporate the safety system into another saw and the cost to have it installed would exceed the co of a new saw.
Can the blade be reused if the safety system brake is activated?
- When the safety system activates, it will sometimes damage one or more teeth on the blade. Some users discard and replace the blade, while others choose to have their blades inspected/repaired by a qualified specialist.
What happens if the blade comes in contact with a nail or staple in the wood?
- Generally, the safety system will not activate when a nail or staple is cut. Although conductive, these objects are not large enough to cause the safety system to activate unless they are grounded to the table or operator when they contact the blade.
Is there a way to check if a material is conductive before I cut it?
- If you are unsure whether the material you need to cut is conductive, you can make test cuts using Bypass Mode to determine if it will activate the safety system’s brake. The red light on the control box will flash to indicate conductivity.
Do I need to use a blade guard with a SawStop Saw?
- Yes. SawStop strongly recommends that you use a blade guard whenever possible.
Can I use any 10” standard blade or 8” dado set with a SawStop saw?
- Any standard steel blade with steel or carbide teeth can be used. You should not use non-conductive blades or blades with non-conductive hubs or teeth (example: diamond blades). They will prevent the SawStop safety system from applying the electrical signal on the blade that is required to sense skin contact. Steel blades and dado sets with a lacquer finish or other coating on the teeth should not be used as the coating may inhibit or slow the speed at which the safety system detects skin contact. However, most coated blades do not cover the blade teeth. Those blades may be used on SawStop saws. Further, blades with depth-limiting (or anti-kickback) shoulders may take longer to stop in the event of an accident than standard blades, and you could receive a more serious injury. Therefore, SawStop recommends using blades without depth-limiting shoulders.
- SawStop recommends only using 8” stacked dado sets, with a maximum thickness of 29/32”. "Wobble” and “Dial-A Width” dado sets are not recommended, as they may not engage correctly with the dado brake cartridge and/or cause issue with your saw in the event of an activation. Do not use dado sets with solid-plate interior chippers or blades with molding heads, as neither brake cartridge is designed to stop those blade types. Please note that the Compact Table Saw (CTS) is unable to support the use of Dado blades.
