Product Description
The CMT OMM29-X1 2-9/16" Grout and Mortar Remover is a 65mm carbide grit oscillating accessory engineered for demanding tile, concrete, and stone work. Featuring a universal arbor compatible with most multi-cutter platforms, this single-piece tool lets you rout grout lines, rasp away tile adhesive, remove mortar joints, and even strip carpet residue from mineral surfaces - all without switching tools. The special design geometry allows full access into 90 deg. corners, making it equally effective in tight spaces and open field areas.
Key Features
- 65mm Carbide Grit Cutting Surface - Tungsten carbide grit delivers exceptional abrasion resistance and extra-long tool life when routing through tile grout, porous concrete, solid brick, cement, and marble, reducing the frequency and cost of blade replacement.
- Universal Arbor Fit - Mounts directly to most multi-cutter and oscillating tool platforms without adapters, saving setup time on the job site and maximizing compatibility across tool brands.
- Multi-Directional Cutting Action - The grit-coated surface cuts in multiple directions simultaneously, enabling free-hand routing, rasping, and shaping without repositioning - ideal for irregular grout lines and uneven surfaces.
- 90 deg. Corner Access - The purpose-built blade geometry reaches fully into 90 deg. inside corners, eliminating the need for hand tools to clean up edges after power tool passes.
- Multi-Application Versatility - Handles grout and mortar removal, tile adhesive rasping, joint removal, and carpet residue stripping from mineral surfaces, reducing the number of separate accessories required on a renovation project.
- Sold as a 1-Piece Unit - Available in a single-piece configuration, allowing purchase in the exact quantity needed for the project at hand.
Why This Product
- One tool handles grout routing, mortar rasping, adhesive removal, joint work, and carpet residue stripping from mineral surfaces - covering the full range of tile and masonry prep tasks that would otherwise require multiple accessories.
- The 90 deg. corner-access design solves one of the most common challenges in grout and mortar removal: reaching fully into wall and floor corners without hand scraping, saving time on every linear foot of joint work.
- Carbide grit construction is engineered specifically for hard, abrasive materials like concrete, brick, cement, and marble - delivering extra-long service life compared to standard bi-metal or HSS oscillating blades in these applications.
- The universal arbor interface means this single accessory works across a wide range of multi-cutter platforms, making it a practical addition to a mixed-brand tool inventory on any renovation or flooring job site.
