The Flip Stop, Perfected
Material stops are often overlooked, but they set the exact dimension of every rip — and that makes them one of the most important parts of the system. The new Flip Stop Pro takes that role seriously, giving you zero-deflection strength, zero-parallax accuracy, and a redesigned calibration system that sets once and holds — making it easier than ever to dial in precision.
Two Flip Stop Pros come standard with each Parallel Guide System Gen 2 kit, but extra stops let you pre-set common dimensions and switch between them without repositioning. They’re also backward-compatible with the original Parallel Guide System, making them an easy upgrade if you’re still using the first version.
A Closer Look at the Flip Stop Pro
Key Features
- Zero Parallax Cursor: A machined recess eliminates parallax, so readings are crystal-clear and precise from any angle.
- Dual-Arm Strength: Rock-solid and planted, minimizing deflection even when registering heavy sheet goods.
- One-Time Calibration, Done Right: A fine-thread, zero-backlash plunger lets you creep into alignment with natural, clockwise turns of a 3mm driver. Once set, it stays locked in calibration, even with repeated contact. No fussing, no drift.
- Longer Contact Arm: Provides more positive engagement against your workpiece edge.
- Spring-Loaded Base: Glides smoothly when unlocked, but remains “planted,” only moving when you want it to.
- Backward Compatible: Works with both Parallel Guide Systems (Gen 1 and 2).

PRO TIP: Multiply Your Efficiency
Keep multiple Flip Stop Pros on your Parallel Guide Tracks, pre-set for common cut dimensions. This saves setup time, eliminates re-adjustments, and keeps your workflow moving at full speed.

EXTRA FLIP STOP PRO FOR TSO PARALLEL GUIDE SYSTEM
I have version 1 and then saw these new versions, and I’ve used V1 a lot and they are good. But I just used the newest version on my V1 rails, and I’ve got to say that there a drastic improvement! It’s amazing on how well they work also calibrating them to the rails are fantastic. I’m going to keep the V1 rails but it would’ve been nice if there was a way to use the new mounts for the rails. But I’m in a project now and the accuracy of the product is perfect.

Having an extra set turns you into a measuring demon
I use the old flipStops along with the V2’s. The V1 i was able to line up exactly on the hash mark. The V2 i calibrated it where it just covers the hash. It’s definitely easier to get to the desired measurement being i have low vision. Price seems high for me but understandable if you ever bought cheaper alternatives.
