AWTools multifunction tool saw blade HCS 28 x 48 mm for wood and metal

AWTools multifunction tool saw blade HCS 28 x 48 mm is a plunge-cut blade designed for use with oscillating multi-tools that accept standard HCS plunge blades. Manufactured from high carbon steel, the blade provides a balance of hardness and flexibility suited to cutting and trimming tasks in wood and soft metals. Its compact cutting dimensions of 28 x 48 mm make it suitable for precise profiling, controlled plunge cuts and small-scale demolition work where access is limited and accuracy is required.

Advantages

The high carbon steel construction offers durable cutting edges for repeated use on softer materials while maintaining resistance to chipping during plunge cuts. The compact 28 x 48 mm size enables accurate control in tight spaces and along edges. Compatibility with common oscillating tool fittings simplifies blade changes and expands its usability across renovation, carpentry and hobby toolsets.

Suitable for

• Plunge cuts and trim work in softwood and plywood
• Cutting and shaping thin non-hardened metals such as aluminum and soft alloys
• Profile trimming, small demolition and remodeling tasks where precision is needed
• Hobby, carpentry and renovation projects requiring compact, controlled cuts

Key specifications

• Material: high carbon steel (HCS)
• Cutting dimensions: 28 x 48 mm
• Blade type: plunge-cut oscillating multi-tool blade
• Compatible with: multi-tools accepting standard HCS plunge blades
• Typical applications: wood and soft metal cutting, profiling and trimming

How to use

Fit the AWTools HCS blade into the oscillating tool following the tool manufacturer’s instructions, ensuring the blade is securely mounted before operation. For plunge cuts, mark the cutting line, position the blade tip at the start point and apply steady, controlled pressure while allowing the oscillating motion to do the cutting. Use slower feed rates when cutting metal and maintain a firm grip to reduce vibration. After use, withdraw the blade from the cut while the tool is stopped and allow the blade to cool before handling.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment (safety glasses, gloves and hearing protection). Select a moderate oscillation speed for metal and a higher speed for most wood cutting operations. Inspect the blade before use for signs of wear and replace if teeth are dulled or the blade is bent. Keep the workplace clear of loose debris to maintain accurate control.
