Bosch Oscillating Tool Blades

The hottest power tool segment should benefit from the best accessories on the planet. Bosch has delivered just that for oscillating tools with the introduction of a full line of titanium-coated segmented and full-circle cutting blades along with a new tear drop-shaped carbide blade for grout and thinset removal.
Titanium coating on the oscillating tool cutting blades increases life by 30 percent versus conventional bi-metal blades thanks to better distribution of heat across the surface of the blade, which prevents overheating. Heavy-duty applications range from window repair and epoxy removal to fiberglass cutting.
Both half-moon segmented blades and full-size circular blades are available in 2-1/2" and 3-1/4" diameters.
The Bosch 3Max tungsten carbide blade combines a rasp and a carbide blade to produce an accessory that can cut grout and remove thinset, an advantage that allows the user to work with one accessory rather than changing from a rasp to a carbide blade in conventional offerings.
The tear drop shape allows the blade to remove tile using a rounded edge, flattening the base for thinset and mortar removal using the flat surface, and use of the rasp finger to work in 90-degree corners and other tight spaces.
"Oscillating tools represent one of the fastest-growing categories in the power tool market," said Brandon Eble, associate product manager, Bosch. "One of the drivers of that growth is the variety of accessories these tools can accept. By offering long-life cutting options and high-performance tile accessories, Bosch is providing users with tools that deliver maximum functionality at the jobsite."
Both blades accept the Bosch Oscillating Interface System (OIST) adapter, which means they can be used not only on Bosch oscillating tools but those made by most manufacturers.
