Product Description
CMT 1-3/4 in. Precision Cut Blade with Japanese Toothing - BIM Starlock - 5-Piece Pack delivers fast, accurate cutting across a wide range of materials including wood products up to 50mm, blockboard, plasterboard, and soft plastics. Built from bi-metal (BIM) construction and fitted with a Starlock arbor interface, this oscillating multi-tool blade is engineered for plunge cuts and flush cuts where precision matters most. The 5-piece value pack is ideal for tradespeople and DIYers who demand consistent performance from blade to blade.
Key Features
- Starlock Arbor Interface - locks directly and securely into all Starlock-compatible oscillating multi-tools, eliminating adapter play and improving control during precision cuts.
- Bi-Metal (BIM) Construction - combines a flexible spring-steel body with high-speed steel teeth for durability and resistance to wear, allowing the blade to withstand demanding cutting conditions without premature failure.
- Japanese Toothing Geometry - the radial tooth profile produces clean, precise cuts with reduced tear-out, making it well suited for finish work in wood, plywood, chipboard, laminate, and soft plastics.
- 14 TPI / 1.75 TS Tooth Pitch - provides a balance between cutting speed and surface finish, so you get through material quickly without sacrificing cut quality.
- 50mm Cutting Height - accommodates material thickness up to 50mm, covering typical applications in blockboard, solid wood products, and plasterboard.
- Medium Width Waist Design - the blade geometry is engineered for outstanding cutting speed combined with maximum precision, reducing the effort needed for accurate plunge and flush cuts.
- 5-Piece Pack - provides multiple blades ready for use, so you can swap quickly on the job and maintain productivity without stopping for resupply.
Why This Product
- The Starlock arbor system and BIM construction work together to give oscillating multi-tool users a blade that stays firmly seated and resists deflection - critical when making flush cuts along baseboards, window frames, or plasterboard edges.
- With a 50mm cutting height and compatibility across wood products, blockboard, plasterboard, and soft plastics, this blade covers a wide range of applications with a single blade type - reducing the number of blade changes on multi-material jobs.
- Japanese toothing with a 14 TPI pitch means cleaner cut edges on laminates and plywood where splintering is a concern, helping achieve finish-ready results without additional sanding or trimming.
- Purchasing a 5-piece pack provides enough blades to handle extended work sessions and reduces downtime from blade changes, making it a practical choice for professional use and high-volume cutting tasks.

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of oscillating multi-tool is this blade compatible with?
This blade is designed for oscillating multi-tools equipped with a Starlock arbor system. The Starlock interface provides a positive, secure blade lock and is compatible with all Starlock-compatible multi-cutter machines.
What materials can this blade cut?
This blade is approved for all wood products up to 50mm in thickness, blockboard, plasterboard, and soft plastics. The BIM construction and Japanese toothing make it effective across this wide range of materials.
What does BIM construction mean and why does it matter?
BIM stands for bi-metal, meaning the blade is made by bonding high-speed steel teeth to a flexible body. This combination provides durability at the cutting edge while maintaining the flexibility needed to resist cracking and breakage during demanding oscillating cuts.
How many blades are included in this pack?
This pack includes 5 blades, each measuring 1-3/4 in. in width with a 50mm cutting height. Having multiple blades on hand allows for quick swaps to maintain consistent cutting performance throughout extended work sessions.
