I'm trying to source a T track slider for my table saw but maybe the track is an odd size (see illustration). Every one I can find (including the adjustable ones) seem to be geared up for the a 23mm wide track rather than the 19mm I need. Does what I want exist as or is it a weird manufacturer only specific part?

Regards

Looks like an unusual size to me, (3/4"x3/8") 19mmx10mm is a standard size.

We usually have AUKTools UHMW Mitre Bar is stock 6mm thick and either 17mm or 20mm wide, its a plastic that you can plane or machine to the correct size to suit your application. I see we are out of stock so I will have to machine some more :)

You may be able to buy a sheet on Ebay and make your own.
 
Many thanks Peter. You confirmed what I suspected. I reckon I will use some 5/8 x 1/4" (15.9 x 6.35) ally bar for the sliders and lose the locking benefit of the 'T'. Wouldn't life be simple if there were standard threads, units of measurement, pitches, T track sizes, tube sizes etc etc?

Regards
