With hardened teeth, these blades make precise cuts in screws, nails, thin-walled pipe, and other thin metals. The teeth are high-speed steel, so they last longer than carbon steel teeth and cut through harder materials. Also known as bimetal blades, these blades have a carbon steel body. Because of their size, they’re typically used for small jobs, such as making notches in sheet metal. They mount to your oscillating tool at any angle, so you can avoid awkward cutting angles and reach into tight spots. They have a slightly curved edge, so you can make plunge cuts without having to angle your tool like you would with a straight-edge blade. This allows for cleaner cuts with less tool vibration.

Starlock-mount blades work with Starlock-compatible tools.

Open-mount blades work with all non-Starlock tools. They have a coating that resists heat buildup, so they’ll stay sharp and won’t get gummed up with metal shards.
