Product Description
CMT OMF161-X5 2-9/16" Plunge Cut Blade for Wood and Nails - BIM StarlockPlus, 5-Piece Pack by CMT is a bi-metal oscillating blade engineered for plunge cutting through wood containing embedded nails. The StarlockPlus (SLP) arbor interface delivers a secure, tool-free fit on compatible multi-cutters, making this blade a practical choice for demolition, renovation, and rough carpentry work where fasteners are present in the material. The 5-piece pack keeps fresh blades on hand for extended jobsite productivity.
Key Features
- Bi-Metal (BIM) construction - combines flexibility and toughness so the blade resists breakage while cutting through wood with embedded nails, reducing blade swaps on tough jobs.
- 2-9/16" blade width - provides a wide cutting path suited to plunge cuts and flush cuts in framing, flooring, and renovation applications.
- 2" cutting height - gives adequate depth capacity to cut through standard dimensional lumber and similar stock in a single pass.
- TS 1.4 - TPI 18 tooth configuration - balances cut speed and blade durability when working through wood-and-nail combinations that would quickly dull a standard wood-only blade.
- StarlockPlus (SLP) arbor interface - locks firmly onto StarlockPlus-compatible oscillating tools, maximizing power transfer and minimizing blade wobble during aggressive cuts.
- 5-piece value pack - supplies multiple blades so professionals can maintain cutting performance without interrupting workflow during demanding multi-cut sessions.
Why This Product
- Demolition and remodel work routinely means cutting through lumber with hidden nails - the BIM construction of this blade handles that combined material challenge in a single tool pass rather than requiring a separate metal-cutting blade.
- The StarlockPlus interface is engineered for high power transfer, meaning the 2-9/16" cutting width is fully utilized without the energy loss associated with older universal-fit arbor systems - making each blade in the 5-piece set work harder and last longer per use.
