Essential if you want to break down full panels.
These are great for using to extend the base 55" track that comes with the Makita plunge saw. Very stable and easy to put on and off.

Makes a very nice solid connection

Best connector for my Makita track saw guides
After seeing how these compare to the Festool connectors I believe these are superior. TheseMakita connectors are two parts verses the Festool one part connectors. This means that the locking set screws push the two pieces apart to lock the connectors in place unlike the Festool design where the set screws push directly into the guide rail and potentially damage it. I totally recommend these Makita connectors.

2-piece design saves track surfaces
The 2-piece design allows the set screws to press against the bottom part of the connector rather than against the relatively soft aluminum track. Seems a lot to spend but I think they're worth the price.

It works, but felt kinda like winning a raffle
Important things first: it works. Yeah, there was an issue with threads, they weren’t clean enough. I didn’t had a tap, so I took a setscrew from the set (there’s an extra one) and carefully run it all the way through the thread making 3/4 a turn forward and a 1/2 backwards, adding a drop of oil into every hole. If you try it, make sure you start from the correct side - the one opposite to small indented tabs.I shouldn’t be doing this for a 50$ set that essentially is 4 holes in a steel bar (hey Makita, you had just one job with this one)Other than that it worked. I couldn’t find any instructions on Makita website, but YT came rescue. Two parts of rails aligned perfectly, the connection was straight and rigid. It would be just awesome if Makita would add a few inches to every rail, so that a standard 55” rail + the short one would give 8’, but yeah, gotta make those sales numbers somehow.

No instructions
No instructions but YouTube “University” has a video as to how to put the pieces together. Makita could have put an explanation of which rod went on top and which rod went on the bottom.
