They are for Festool rails. If you want the Mafell versions, you have to buy the Mafell!

Hey gang!
If I rummage around I might have an extra pair of bonafide Mafell rail clamps to spare. I hardly ever use them and I think I have two pairs. They are also a few still in stock over here in Sweden last I went past that shelf.

They are for Festool rails. If you want the Mafell versions, you have to buy the Mafell! The t-block is plastic. Couple passes with a plane and they will fit into Mafell/Bosch track.

Hi all!
Yes, I mean that I might have an extra pair and also yes, there might be a dealer or two that has a few in stock over here. You have to have a registered account, the don't sell online or ship overseas but I am a well known customer for many years so I can swing by and check the inventory or just call them. They have a few stores so they can survey the stock on their computer.
I could hopefully arrange something for you, let me look into it!

Might as well get the Mafell if it's for planing some plastic to make it fit - that might break as it's not designed to be so thin - pretty much the same price too.

I often wonder with all these little shops dotted around, no online presence, all these end of line Mafell tools and accessories - there is probably even a brand new LO50E sitting somewhere waiting for a buyer!

I checked my personal stash yesterday and I "only" have the one pair of clampus bonafidus left. I was probably generous enough to include the other pair last time I sold off stuff.
I was hoping I would pass the vendor yesterday but ran out of time. Might pass by tomorrow and will see what they have left. Maybe I should snag what's left if there is any?

Ok, checked today and all sold out and replaced by a stack of Bessey clamps that are the wrong clamp size, the size of the Festool rails.

I have both of those!.. I modified the Bosch and cut the loop off.

Over the weekend I took a Bessey ratchet clamp (same as the festool) and a Mafell screw clamp. I filed off the 'bump' on the bars, so I could remove the ratchet/screw, and swapped them over. I was worried because the ratchet clamp pad extends past the end of the bar that fits the rail, but then noticed that the Bosch clamps are like that as well. Works well, so will do the other one and have a pair.
