Axminster table saw sliding fence 'lubricator'

[skeetstar]

Gentles all I have an Axi table saw, and the alloy fence runs on an alloy track at the front of the saw.
Smooth movement of the track is facilitated by some (looks like PTFE) tapes affixed to the under side of the fence slider.
These move and wear out and lose their stickiness over time... any one got an idea of who might offer something that
would act as a suitable replacement? Axi can't help.

You can buy replacement tape. You'd have to google it, that's as much as I know.

my greenhouse has something similar on it to help the sliding glass slide, stuck on with double sided tape. I had assumed it was the same banding as used on pallets. may do the job.

I used a spray whilst in france - 'glissant' - have been meaning to find similar here because it works a treat

It’s available in Amazon. UHMW tape. I too have the same issue with my iTech saw.
