Product Description
CMT 2-9/16" Plunge Cut Blade for Wood and Nails - BIM Starlock (50-Piece) is a professional-grade bi-metal oscillating blade engineered for fast, reliable plunge and flush cuts in demanding jobsite conditions. Designed with a Starlock arbor interface, this blade fits directly onto any multi-cutter with a Starlock system, delivering a secure, play-free connection that maximizes power transfer. Whether you are cutting through softwood framing, plasterboard ceilings, plastics, or wood embedded with nails up to 5mm, this blade handles the task with consistent performance across a full contractor bulk pack of 50 pieces.
Key Features
- Bi-Metal (BIM) Construction - tough high-speed steel teeth bonded to a flexible spring-steel body means the blade resists wear when cutting through wood with embedded nails, reducing the need for frequent blade changes on the job.
- Starlock Arbor Interface - a positive-locking mount that fits all Starlock-compatible multi-cutters, eliminating slippage and ensuring full oscillation energy is transferred directly to the cut.
- 2-9/16" Blade Width with 2" Cutting Height - a wide cutting profile suited to plunge cuts in materials like plasterboard, porous cement, plastics, and nail-embedded wood, reducing the number of passes needed to complete a cut.
- 1.4 TS - 18 TPI Tooth Configuration - a tooth geometry optimized for clean, controlled cuts across a range of materials from softwood and chipboard to plasterboard and plastics.
- 50-Piece Bulk Pack - a high-volume contractor pack that keeps replacement blades on hand throughout extended projects, reducing downtime and per-blade cost.
- Compatible with Wood and Nails up to 5mm, Porous Cement, Plasterboard, and Plastics - broad material compatibility means a single blade SKU covers multiple common renovation and construction tasks.
Why This Product
- Contractors tackling demolition, renovation, or remodeling work encounter wood framing with embedded nails regularly - the BIM construction of this blade is specifically rated for nails up to 5mm, so you do not need to switch to a specialty blade mid-task.
- The Starlock mount is a tool-free, click-in arbor system compatible with CMT, Metabo, and other Starlock multi-cutters, making this a versatile blade choice across a mixed-brand tool fleet.
- At 50 pieces per pack, this bulk option is practical for high-production environments where blade turnover is frequent - stocking a single pack covers an extended scope of plunge-cut and flush-cut work without repeated reordering.
- The wide 2-9/16" blade width combined with a 2" cutting height gives you reach and clearance for plunge cuts in plasterboard, porous cement, and plastic panel applications - materials commonly encountered in interior finishing and mechanical rough-in work.
