Einhell circular saw guide rail

Updated: 21 October 2026

You want a straight cut, and an Einhell circular saw guide rail sounds as if it should be in the box because a bullet mentions one. It is not. None of the eight amazon.co.uk listings includes the rail. A guide-rail sentence means a separate rail may be used, and only four of these listings actually write that sentence. The [Einhell circular saw comparison](/hub/power-saws/einhell-circular-saw) is the set of saws. This page does not rank them and does not test a rail for straightness. Peter F. used the amazon bullets from 19 October 2026 and Einhell’s UK accessory page. If you buy through our links, a qualifying purchase can earn us a commission at no extra cost to you.

Not in the box

Read the include line before the compatibility sentence. The box is the saw, usually a blade, and sometimes a hex key, a rip fence, or a parallel stop. The rail is absent from every include line. The 190 mm bullet says the saw works with all Einhell guide rails, and the rail is still not in the box at £136.98. The 150 mm and 165-1 bullets say the rail is sold separately. The TC-CS 1410 names the system and does not put a length of rail in the carton. A rip fence is easy to mistake for a rail in the photo. The 89 mm box includes a rip fence. The TP-CS 18/165 includes a parallel end-stop. The 136 mm box includes a parallel stop. The 165-2 line prints “Parallel Fail”, which is not a fence you can specify. A fence bears against the edge of the board. If the sheet has no straight edge, the fence copies the error. Setting depth once the saw is on the board is the how to use an Einhell circular saw page.

What the amazon bullets say

Four listings use the rail words. B083X4K8S8, the 190 mm body, says all Einhell guide rails. B0853SGR52, the 150 mm Solo, says the rail is compatible and sold separately. B0853SS8N3, the 165-1, says the same. B08LQG8GGF, the TC-CS 1410, names the guide-rail system. A UK review in the shared 150 mm and 165-1 text mentions a channel and says the rail was not supplied. One reviewer used a 2 m rail they already had. Four listings leave the rail unstated. The 89 mm mini, the TP-CS 18/165, the 165-2, and the 136 mm saw do not claim one on amazon. A non-UK comment about play on a 136 mm rail is not UK opinion, and the bullet does not claim a rail, so this page does not use it. Depth and Solo still come first on the Einhell circular saw buying guide.

The separate rail

Einhell UK sells guide rail article 4502118, 2 x 1,000 mm, at £51.95 on the page used here. Wickes has listed the same article around £49, still separate from the saw. Einhell’s sentence says the rail suits all Einhell hand-held circular saws and plunge saws. That claim does not name these eight ASINs, and it does not fill their boxes. About £52 on top of a Solo body is the cost of the track, plus a battery if you do not own one. A brand-wide sentence is not a test of the 89 mm shoe. The mini never claims a channel, and its depth stops at 28 mm. If the bullet is silent, you are guessing. Plunge saws are named on that rail page and they are not in this hand-held set. TE-CS 190/1 is a different corded saw and it is not one of these eight.

Where the sources disagree

Einhell’s UK page for the TP-CS 18/165 says the guide rail is available separately. The amazon bullets for B0DX71B1JN do not say that. If you need the sentence on the order page, this listing is the one without it. A German kit, article 4326753, includes a rail, a case, a battery, and a charger. That kit is not ASIN B083X4K8S8. The UK 190 mm page claims compatibility and still sells the rail separately: saw and blade, no pack, no rail. Nothing in these eight listings says a Makita or DeWalt rail will fit, so this page does not say it. Whether you should be on 18 V or 230 V is the Einhell cordless or corded circular saw page.

Common questions

Which of these eight saws say they fit an Einhell guide rail?
On the amazon bullets, four do. The 190 mm Solo says all Einhell guide rails. The 150 mm and the 165-1 say the rail is sold separately. The TC-CS 1410 names the system. The mini, the TP-CS 18/165, the 165-2, and the 136 mm saw do not say it on amazon.
Is the rail in the box at the Solo price?
No. The include lines list the saw, a blade, and small parts such as a hex key or a fence. They do not list article 4502118. A UK review on the shared 150 mm and 165-1 text says the rail was not supplied. The rail is an extra on every row that mentions it.
What does Einhell charge for the rail?
Einhell UK lists article 4502118, 2 x 1,000 mm, at £51.95 on the page used here. The compatibility line covers hand-held circular saws and plunge saws, and it does not itemise these eight ASINs. Wickes has sold the same article separately, around £49. That price sits on top of the saw.
Does the all handheld saws line cover the 89 mm mini?
The accessory page says all Einhell hand-held circular saws. The 89 mm amazon listing does not claim a rail, and this comparison did not fit that shoe on 4502118. The mini is also capped at 28 mm. If the amazon file is silent, do not assume a channel is there.
Why does Einhell mention a rail for the TP-CS 18/165 when Amazon does not?
Einhell’s UK page says the rail is available separately. The amazon extract for B0DX71B1JN does not include that sentence. The 150 mm, the 165-1, the 190 mm body, and the TC-CS 1410 are the listings where the amazon bullets do say it.
Does a parallel stop replace a rail?
A parallel stop or rip fence references the edge of the board. A rail is a separate track, and these boxes leave it out. If the edge is not straight, the fence copies it. The 165-2 line that says “Parallel Fail” is not a usable fence specification.
Will another brand’s rail fit, or is the German kit the same listing?
These listings do not say a Makita or DeWalt rail fits. German article 4326753 includes a rail, a case, a battery, and a charger. ASIN B083X4K8S8 is the UK Solo body without those parts. Do not import the kit contents onto the Solo price.
