MPN: 19053
Barcode: 5028734190533
Size: 68mm
Weight: 0.05kg
Overview:
The Blue Spot Tools 68mm fine tooth multi-tool blade cuts timber and most plastics with a clean, controlled result. Finely milled teeth produce a consistent cutting action across both material types.
Universal fitting makes this blade compatible with most multi-tool brands. It does not fit tools that use a Starlock attachment system. Heat-treated carbon steel construction gives this blade its long cutting life.

Typical Applications
How to Use
Check Compatibility: Confirm your multi-tool uses a universal fitting system. This blade does not fit Starlock-type tools.
Attach the Blade: Fix the blade securely to your multi-tool using its blade clamping mechanism.
Mark the Cut: Mark your cut line clearly on the material before starting.
Position the Tool: Hold the multi-tool firmly and align the blade with the start of the cut line.
Begin Cutting: Apply light, steady pressure and let the oscillating action work through the material.
Follow Through: Move consistently along the cut line without forcing the blade.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is the difference between fine-tooth and coarse-tooth multi-tool blades?
Fine tooth blades have more closely spaced teeth, producing cleaner, more controlled cuts. Coarse tooth blades have fewer, larger teeth that remove material faster but leave rougher edges. Fine tooth blades suit finish work and cutting plastics, where a cleaner result matters.
What does "universal fit" mean on a multi-tool blade?
Universal fit means the blade uses an open-backed, multi-hole design that works with most oscillating multi-tool brands. It does not fit tools with proprietary fitting systems. This includes the Starlock interface used on certain Bosch and Fein tools.
Can a multi-tool blade cut plastic?
Yes, certain multi-tool blades cut plastic. Fine-tooth blades suit plastic work because the closely spaced teeth reduce the risk of chipping or cracking the material. Apply steady, moderate pressure and let the blade cut at its own pace.
What is the Starlock fitting, and why are some blades not compatible with it?
Starlock is a 3D blade attachment system developed by Bosch and Fein. It uses a 12-point star-shaped interface that requires matching Starlock accessories. Universal fit blades use an open-backed multi-hole design and cannot attach to a Starlock-only tool without an adapter.
How do I know when a multi-tool blade needs replacing?
Signs include slower cutting speed and burn marks or discolouration on the cut material. Rough or splintered edges and increased vibration also indicate wear. Forcing a worn blade can damage both the blade and the tool.
Summary
The Blue Spot Tools 68mm heat-treated carbon steel blade cuts timber and most plastics. Finely milled teeth produce a clean, accurate cut, and the universal fitting suits most multi-tool brands (it does not fit Starlock system tools).
