Anti-kickback fingers
Anti-kickback fingers are standard safety equipment on most new table saws. The anti-kickback fingers are incorporated into the blade guard and prevent the stock from being thrown at the operator by biting into it when kickback occurs. As long as the stock if fed through the blade in a normal fashion the anti-kickback fingers don't come into play. It is only when the stock binds and kickback occurs that they are important.

Company Information	Australian Timber Products Pty Ltd (Austim) is a market leading supplier of quality timber based products, sourced from many global regions. It is led by a passionate team committed to exceeding customers' expectations through the empowerment and development of its staff. The business constantly focuses on growing its activities in products outside of the commodity arena. By engaging in discussion with new suppliers and new supply regions, the business can create new market offers for products that can enter the Australian market at the start of the product life cycle and thus create new interest and demand, which leads to new innovation and design options. During recent years, the company has focused on improving the overall performance of its core business. This not only has added value to the business, but also allowed the business to look much closer at how it services its customers. This in turn allowed management to make improvements to the service offer and examine the true needs of the businesses customer base. In order to further enhance its ability to provide superior customer service levels, in December 2009 Austim passed the necessary requirements to obtain certification under the Quality Assurance system ISO-9001. Today, timber is imported from Canada, U.S.A., Europe, Africa and Asia, with exports going to New Zealand and Asia. The company carries more than 30 species in stock with an inventory close to 2000m3.
