Product Description
CMT 1-3/4" Precision Cut Blade with Japanese Toothing - BIM Starlock, 50-Piece Pack delivers professional-grade oscillating tool performance for contractors and tradespeople who demand clean, accurate cuts across a wide range of materials. Built from Bi-Metal (BIM) construction, this Starlock-compatible segmented blade is engineered for precision plunge cuts and flush cuts in wood products up to 50mm, blockboard, plasterboard, and soft plastics. The 50-piece contractor bulk pack makes it an efficient choice for high-volume jobsite use where blade changes are frequent and consistent results are non-negotiable.
Key Features
- Starlock Arbor Compatibility - fits the Starlock mounting system used across a wide range of professional multi-cutters, enabling tool-free blade changes and a secure, vibration-reducing fit that improves cut accuracy.
- Bi-Metal (BIM) Construction - combines high-speed steel teeth with a flexible spring-steel body, delivering durability in demanding applications while resisting breakage during plunge and flush cutting tasks.
- Japanese Toothing at 14 TPI - the fine-tooth, radially shaped geometry produces precision cuts with minimal tear-out, making it well-suited for finish-quality work in wood products, laminate, chipboard, and plywood.
- 45 x 50mm Blade Dimensions - the medium-width waist design provides an outstanding balance of cutting speed and maximum precision, reducing the effort needed to guide cuts through the material.
- 50mm Cutting Height Capacity - handles material thicknesses up to 50mm, covering a broad range of structural and finish applications including blockboard and plasterboard without blade limitations.
- 50-Piece Bulk Pack - a high-quantity contractor pack reduces downtime on the job by ensuring fresh blades are always on hand, lowering per-blade cost for heavy users.
- Wide Range of Compatible Materials - performs across softwood, hardwood, plywood, chipboard, and soft plastics, reducing the number of different blade types a contractor needs to carry.
Why This Product
- The Starlock arbor design locks the blade in place with greater surface contact than older oscillating interfaces, which means less wobble and more controlled cuts in precision finish work or tight spaces.
- With 14 TPI Japanese toothing, this blade is purpose-built for clean, accurate cutting rather than aggressive material removal - the right tool when cut quality matters as much as speed, such as in trim, cabinetry, and plasterboard work.
- BIM construction offers the flexibility of spring steel combined with the cutting edge durability of high-speed steel, making this blade a practical choice for mixed-material cuts where the workpiece composition may not always be predictable.
- The 50-piece format is specifically suited to contractors, remodelers, and multi-trade crews who run oscillating tools continuously - stocking up in bulk eliminates mid-project supply gaps and lowers the cost per cut over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
What arbor type does this blade use, and which multi-cutters is it compatible with?
This blade uses the Starlock (SL) arbor system. It is compatible with any multi-cutter or oscillating tool that accepts the Starlock interface, including tools from CMT and Metabo, among others that support the Starlock mounting standard.
What is the maximum cutting depth this blade can handle?
This blade has a cutting height capacity of 50mm, making it suitable for a wide range of structural and finish materials including wood products up to 50mm thick, blockboard, and plasterboard.
Why is Japanese toothing used on this blade, and what cutting results should I expect?
Japanese toothing refers to a fine, radially shaped tooth geometry that is optimized for precision cuts with minimal tear-out. At 14 TPI, this blade prioritizes clean, accurate results over aggressive stock removal - making it well-suited for finish carpentry, trim work, and cutting plasterboard or soft plastics where cut quality is important.
Is this blade appropriate for cutting materials other than wood?
Yes. In addition to all wood products including plywood, chipboard, and blockboard, this blade is also rated for plasterboard and soft plastics, giving it a broad range of applications across multi-trade and remodeling work.
