Oscillating saw blades are essential accessories for multi-tools, allowing you to make precise cuts in confined areas where conventional saws cannot reach. They’re ideal for flush cuts, plunge cuts, trimming, and detail work in woodworking, remodelling, and repairs.
The right blade dramatically improves the quality and efficiency of the task, enabling clean cuts with minimal material waste and reduced risk of collateral damage to surrounding surfaces.
Whether you're a professional contractor or a DIY enthusiast, having a selection of oscillating blades on hand ensures you can tackle a wide range of jobs quickly, accurately, and safely.
Oscillating saw blades come in a variety of formats, including toothed blades for cutting and solid, flat-edged blades for scraping or sanding. Some are optimised for straight plunges, others for curved or segmented cuts.
The unique oscillating motion – a small side-to-side arc at high frequency – allows for controlled, low-vibration cutting with reduced risk of kickback. This makes oscillating blades particularly suited to work close to finished surfaces, corners, and edges.
Choosing the appropriate shape, width, and tooth pattern ensures you can cut neatly around fixtures, trim materials precisely to length, and remove old sealants or adhesives without damaging adjacent components.
Oscillating saw blades are available in different constructions to suit a wide range of materials and tasks:
