RA1129 2-Piece Quick-Change Router Template Guide Adapter Kit for Threaded Template Guides

Works great

Made for Bosch Routers so they fit perfectly. They offer ease of use for changing different guide bushings on demand. The installation of the adapter minimizes the need to center the bushing for each use, making the cut more accurate.

Very pleased with this purchase from HeltonToolandHome. The quick change router template guide made by Bosch was good quality and functions perfectly, as expected. But I was particularly pleased with the rapid delivery, excellent packaging, and low price from the vendor, HeltonToolandHome. This was one of those purchases through Amazon that was NOT shipped by Amazon and came instead directly from the vendor. I’m usually wary of these transactions as my past experience hasn’t always been good, but HeltonToolandHome were excellent and I’ll be pleased to buy from them again through Amazon.

Treated myself to a new 1617DVS router to use with my dovetail jig. Needless to say, standard guides are not compatible with the 1617 so this adaptor is a necessity. It's a 2-piece assembly, adapting the Porter Cable guide. The standard Porter Cable guides fit perfectly in the adapter plane and the cam lever locks the guide in place and allows quick removal of the adaptor, leaving the locking mechanism in place. My only complaint is (and the only reason for 4 stars), with the locking assembly (the one with the locking lever) in place and you are using a large cutter (a 3/4" for example), you cannot see where the bit aligns where you plan to cut. Needless to say, mine will be removed and stored safely until have the need for a guide. Not a big deal for me as I don't do a lot of jig work. Personally, I would rather Bosch offer replaceable baseplate that allows the use of the standard adapters directly; similar to the one they offer for the Colt Trim router.

Man. I got one and ended up buying 2 more for anything I could put my full sized router in. Using templates becomes so easy. The fit of it is flawless, and the quality is truly top notch. I think it will last as long as the router and then some. You can't go wrong.

Don't buy the RA1100 this set is all in one two pieces it includes the RA1100 it will allow you to attach any brush guide like porter cable or comparable to it . The website has very poor description of it they want you to buy the entire Bosh brush guide . Save money this set is perfect . I use it on my combi Bosh 1617evsz router it works with my own porter cable guide brush . Make sure to buy the self centering point to align the base of your router on center before you use it . This is why I am giving a 4 star just because the info drove me crazy to buy the RA1100 separately because they didn't mention it was ready included so then I returned it and just kept this set as it was ready to be use as it is !

Fits 1617 perfectly. Includes both screws needed for installation... i mention this because that wasnt clear in description.

This is easy to install and also works with the dust collector attachments. I liked the fact that I could use my existing guide bushings using the adapter that is comes with this product. I'm pleased.

Works as it should. Perfect fit for my Bosch router. This adapter makes changes quick and easy.

PARFAIT

Great piece of kit, a must for the Bosch router

L'adaptateur rapide est déjà présent sur la Bosch POF 1400, et les séries pro, alors pourquoi l'avoir pris? Pour la plaque adaptatrice qui est livrée avec, et qui permet de monter toutes les bagues standard de marque Katsu. Du coup on a une gamme de bagues à copier énorme, pour un coût très intéressant. Pour le prix de deux bagues de la marque d'origine, on a les coffrets complets en mesure métrique et impériale. Juste indispensable...

Have the new Bosch Professional 18V System Cordless Router GKF 18V-8 hand held router? Want to use a guide collar on it? Be prepared to pay out some money. First, buy this: Bosch Professional TE 600 plunge unit. Then you can get this adaptor set to fit the TE 600. I emailed Bosch Europe about this, and they were very unhelpful. They don't support or sell this adaptor set, you will not find it in the EU Bosch website. So I took a plunge (router based pun intended!) and ordered this RA1129 set from Amazon to be shipped from the USA, where Bosch there is a bit more helpful. So now, I have the Bosch 30mm guide collar fitted to my 18v router, so I can use my Axminster precision router jig contraption. I can also fit Porter Cable style guide bushes using a adaptor that is in the RA1129 set. So the TE 600 fits the 18v router, then the RA1129 fits the TE 600 and the guide bushes fit in to the Quick-change template guide adapter of the RA1129 set. I spent far too long figuring this out, and Bosch Europe, you can be more helpful than cryptic one line replies to customers via email trying to buy your products. As to why this is Bosch USA only, I have no idea but Amazon sells it in the UK so I don't care!
