Powermatic pm9-64b-406 Anti-kickback Pawl

Product Description

The POWERMATIC pm9-64b-406 is a replacement anti-kickback pawl designed for use with Powermatic table saws. Anti-kickback pawls are passive safety devices that mount to the blade guard assembly and engage the workpiece if the material begins to travel backward toward the operator. The toothed pawl catches the wood and prevents it from being thrown rearward with force. This part is installed by woodworking professionals and experienced shop technicians performing routine safety component maintenance or replacing worn pawl assemblies.

This pawl is suited for workshop environments where table saw kickback protection must be maintained in working order. Kickback pawls are considered a required safety component on most guarded table saw configurations. Replacing worn or damaged pawls restores the saw's passive kickback defense and supports compliance with standard shop safety practices. This part is a direct Powermatic replacement component intended to restore OEM-level function.

Key Features

• Passive anti-kickback design engages workpiece automatically if rearward movement occurs
• OEM replacement part sourced directly from Powermatic
• Compatible with Powermatic table saw blade guard and splitter assemblies
• Toothed pawl geometry grips the workpiece to prevent rearward ejection

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM replacement anti-kickback pawl for Powermatic table saw models. Refer to your saw's parts diagram to confirm fitment for your specific model before ordering.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified woodworking equipment technician or experienced operator. Disconnect the saw from its power source completely before servicing the blade guard or pawl assembly. Confirm the replacement pawl pivots freely and the toothed edge contacts the workpiece correctly before returning the saw to service. Always verify that all guard components are properly reinstalled and functional prior to operation.
