12-Inch Straight Line Rip Saw, 15 HP, 230/460V 3Ph (SLR12)

The Powermatic SLR12 Straight Line Rip Saw is built for high-output woodworking environments that demand consistent accuracy, clean edges, and production-level reliability. Designed for face frames, glue-line ripping, and long production runs, the SLR12 delivers straight, repeatable cuts with minimal operator intervention. A powerful 15-HP main motor drives a 12-inch blade mounted on a precision-ground, heat-treated arbor for stability under continuous load. Material control is handled by a heavy-duty feed system featuring hardened V-way guides, cast iron feed chain blocks, and seven pressure rollers that keep stock flat and aligned throughout the cut. Variable feed speeds allow operators to match throughput to material type and finish requirements. Built with full cast iron construction and front-mounted controls for fast setup changes, the SLR12 is engineered for accuracy, safety, and long service life in demanding shop environments. Backed by Powermatic’s 5-year warranty, it is a dependable solution for straight-line ripping at scale.
