Description
Overview:
This plastic sole (base plate) is a genuine DeWalt/Black & Decker replacement part for selected cordless jigsaws. Made from tough, wear‐resistant plastic, it provides a flat, stable and low‐friction base to keep cuts accurate and controlled. It replaces worn or damaged bases to restore smooth tracking and square cutting. Designed for an exact OEM fit, it matches the original mounting points and geometry on compatible machines. Ideal for DeWalt DC308K and DC318KL models, and also used across several other DeWalt jigsaws, it helps protect delicate work surfaces from scuffs while improving glide over timber, laminates and other sheet materials. Genuine DeWalt part number 581268-00 ensures reliable compatibility and long service life.
Key Features:
- Genuine Part: OEM DeWalt/Black & Decker component for assured fit and performance
- Durable construction: robust plastic resists wear from frequent cutting and jobsite use
- Stable base: maintains flat, square contact with the workpiece for cleaner, straighter cuts
- Smooth glide: low‐friction surface helps the jigsaw travel evenly across timber and sheet goods
- Surface protection: plastic sole reduces marking on finished or delicate materials
- Accurate alignment: preserves cutting angle settings and reduces wobble and chatter
- Easy to fit: direct replacement using the original fixings and standard hand tools
- Cost‐effective repair: restores tool accuracy without replacing the whole jigsaw
- Engineered compatibility: matches the original footprint and screw pattern on listed models
- Reliable performance: designed to withstand daily trade and DIY use
Typical Applications:
Replacing a worn, cracked or heavily scuffed jigsaw base to restore cutting accuracy when trimming doors, sizing sheet materials, cutting worktops, flooring, cabinetry components, plastics and non‐ferrous sheet (with the correct blade).
