Product Description
CMT 3/8" Plunge and Flush-Cut Blade for Wood - HCS (1-Piece) is a narrow oscillating blade built for precise plunge cutting and flush trimming in wood, blockboard, chipboard, plastic, pipes, and profiles. Engineered with a universal arbor for broad multi-tool compatibility, this high-carbon steel blade delivers controlled, accurate cuts in tight or restricted spaces - making it a reliable choice for carpentry, renovation, and finish work where standard saw access is limited.
Key Features
- Universal Arbor Compatibility - fits most oscillating multi-cutters on the market, reducing the need for adapter hardware and letting you get straight to work.
- 3/8" Blade Width with 1 1/8" Cutting Height - the narrow profile accesses tight spots and confined recesses where wider blades cannot reach, while the generous cutting height handles typical finish and installation tasks in a single pass.
- 18 TPI Tooth Count - 18 teeth per inch delivers clean, controlled cuts in wood, chipboard, blockboard, plastic, pipes, and profiles, minimizing tear-out and surface damage on finished pieces.
- High-Carbon Steel (HCS) Construction - heat-treated high-carbon steel provides durability and edge retention through repeated plunge and flush-cut operations in wood-based and plastic materials.
- Plunge and Flush-Cut Geometry - the blade geometry is optimized for both starting cuts in the middle of a workpiece and trimming flush to a surface, covering a wide range of installation and adjustment tasks without swapping blades.
Why This Product
- Installing a ventilation grille or cutting a recess in a furniture element for a mains socket demands accuracy in a confined space - the 3/8" width and 18 TPI tooth count give you the precision needed without over-cutting.
- Adjustment work such as sawing recesses for locks, window hardware, and door fittings is handled cleanly by the plunge-and-flush geometry, which lets the blade start a cut mid-surface and finish it level with the surrounding material.
- The universal arbor means this blade is ready to mount on most oscillating multi-cutters without sourcing a separate adapter, saving setup time on the job site.
- With material compatibility spanning hardwood, softwood, blockboard, chipboard, plastic, pipes, and profiles, this single blade covers the material range that most carpentry and installation projects require.
