CMT 1-3/4 in. Plunge Cut Blade for Wood and Metal - BIM Starlock - 5-Piece Pack delivers versatile oscillating tool performance for contractors and woodworkers tackling a wide range of cutting tasks. Engineered with a bi-metal (BIM) construction and a Starlock arbor interface, this 44mm blade is built to cut through sheet metal, wood products, plasterboard, soft plastics, and non-ferrous pipe and profiles such as copper, aluminium, and brass - all with a single tool setup. The 5-piece value pack ensures you always have a fresh blade ready for demanding job site work.

Key Features

• Starlock Arbor Interface - provides a secure, rattle-free connection to any Starlock-compatible oscillating multi-cutter, maximizing power transfer and reducing vibration during plunge and flush cuts.
• Bi-Metal (BIM) Construction - combines the flexibility of a spring-steel body with high-speed steel teeth, delivering durability across wood, metal, and composite materials without blade fatigue or premature breakage.
• 44mm (1-3/4 in.) Blade Width with Narrow Waist Design - the narrow waist geometry promotes outstanding cutting speed and efficient swarf evacuation, keeping the cut path clear for cleaner results with less effort.
• 1.4 TS - 18 TPI Tooth Configuration - a tooth pitch engineered for aggressive material removal in both wood products and metals up to 2mm thick, making this blade effective across a broad spectrum of substrates.
• 2-11/64 in. Cutting Height - generous cutting depth allows the blade to reach into deeper stock, increasing versatility for plunge cuts in thicker panels and structural materials.
• Wide Material Compatibility - rated for sheet metal up to 2mm, wood products, plasterboard, soft plastics, and non-ferrous profiles including copper, aluminium, and brass, reducing the need to swap blades between tasks.
• 5-Piece Pack - multiple blades included per pack extend your productivity on long projects and provide replacements without requiring a separate order mid-job.

Why This Product

• The Starlock arbor system is directly compatible with Starlock oscillating multi-cutters, meaning no adapters are required - the blade seats firmly and transfers maximum tool energy straight to the cut.
• The narrow waist design actively channels cut debris away from the blade path, which means less clogging and faster progress when cutting through wood products, plasterboard, or non-ferrous pipe in renovation and remodeling applications.
• BIM construction makes this blade a practical all-in-one choice for mixed-material jobs - from copper and aluminium profiles to chipboard and soft plastics - without needing separate specialty blades for each substrate.
• Buying a 5-piece pack provides immediate backup blades on hand, which is especially valuable on multi-phase projects where blade wear from cutting sheet metal or hardwood can occur before the job is finished.
