Best Oscillating Tool Blades for Metal in 2027
Choosing oscillating tool blades for metal comes down to three things: the blade material (bi-metal or carbide), the mount, and how many blades you get. Carbide teeth usually last longer on hard materials. The mount decides which tools a blade will fit, and a set that fits Starlock will not fit a standard screw-clamp tool. The piece count matters if you plan to cut through nails, screws, or pipe. We put 26 products on one spec sheet so you can compare these details side by side. Each product is shown with its listed specs and Best Score rank.

Carbide teeth, three blades
EZARC 801113EZARC Carbide Oscillating Blades, 3-Pack
Carbide-tooth three-pack for conventional tools
- Pieces
- 3
- Carbide
- Yes
- Cuts nails
- Yes (best of the reviewed tools)
- Cuts metal
- Yes (best of the reviewed tools)
The EZARC Carbide Oscillating Blades three-pack ranks third on our Best Score, with a score of 65. Its blades use carbide teeth, and the listing says they cut nails and metal. The listing claims 30 times the life of bi-metal blades, though that is the maker's claim and not a test result on this page. The blades fit most conventional oscillating tools.
The pack includes two extra adapters to help with fit on more tools. The listing says the blades are made for hardened materials such as stainless steel and hardened screws. The maker does not publish a max cut depth or a blade width for this pack. Three blades is a small count, so buy more if you have several metal cuts planned.
This pack suits a buyer who wants carbide teeth in a simple three-pack for a conventional tool. Skip it if your tool uses Starlock, since the listing says it is not compatible. Choose a larger kit if you need a wider mix of blade types.
Pros
- Carbide teeth on every blade
- Two extra adapters included
- Ranks third on our Best Score
Cons
- Not compatible with Starlock
- Only three blades in the pack
- Buy it if
- you want carbide teeth for a conventional tool.
- Skip it if
- your tool uses Starlock.
VerdictA focused carbide three-pack that fits most conventional oscillating tools, with a small blade count.

The AMZWEI 28-piece kit ranks fourth on our Best Score, with a score of 63. It uses a quick-release mount and lists compatibility with more than 95 percent of oscillating tools. The listing names Bosch, Fein, Milwaukee, Ridgid, Dewalt, and Ryobi as direct matches. The blades are made from HCS, titanium, bi-metal, and stainless steel.
The kit has 28 pieces across several types, including curved-edge blades, Japanese-tooth wood blades, bi-metal nail blades, and titanium bi-metal blades for soft metal. The listing says it is not suitable for bolts or screws. The maker does not publish a max cut depth for this set. The mix gives you many options, but you may find fewer blades of each type.
This kit suits someone who wants many blade types for metal, wood, and plastic in one box. Skip it if your main job is bolts or screws, since the listing says those are not suitable uses. A buyer who wants only carbide blades may want a carbide-focused set instead.
Pros
- 28 pieces across five blade types
- Quick-release mount for many tools
- Includes titanium bi-metal blades
Cons
- Not suitable for bolts or screws
- No max cut depth published
- Buy it if
- you want many blade types in one box.
- Skip it if
- your main job is bolts or screws.
VerdictA wide mixed kit for metal, wood, and plastic, best for buyers who want variety over carbide-only durability.

- Yes (best of the reviewed tools)
The CONNOO 158-piece kit has the highest piece count on this page. It ranks fifth on our Best Score, with a score of 61. The blades are made from high carbon steel, stainless steel, and bi-metal. The listing says the kit cuts metal and wood, and it includes a sandpaper pad. The maker does not list a nail-cutting spec for this set.
The kit uses a quick-release mount and is listed as compatible with most standard oscillating tools, including DeWalt, Ryobi, Craftsman, and Dremel tools with a C-adapter. The C-adapter fits Dremel MM40, MM45, and Multi-Max 6300. The listing says it does not fit Starlock or Hyperlock systems. The maker does not publish a max cut depth for this set.
This kit suits a buyer who wants a large mix of blades and accessories for general home repair. It is less suited to a buyer who needs proof of nail-cutting or carbide teeth, since neither is listed. Skip it if you use a Starlock or Hyperlock tool.
Pros
- 158 pieces, highest on this page
- Includes sandpaper pad and C-adapter
- Quick-release mount for most tools
Cons
- No carbide teeth listed
- Not compatible with Starlock or Hyperlock
- Buy it if
- you want the most blades and accessories.
- Skip it if
- you need carbide teeth or Starlock fit.
VerdictA high-count general kit for home repair, with a clear trade-off in cutting-material specs.

Buying guide
Pick the blade material first
Carbide teeth are listed on several products here, and they are the usual choice for hard metal and nails. Bi-metal blades are a common middle option. Check the spec sheet for carbide or bi-metal before you compare anything else, since that choice shapes how the blade handles tough metal.
Confirm the mount before buying
Starlock, quick-release, and universal interfaces do not all fit the same tools. Several blades here say they are not compatible with Starlock. Find your tool's mount type first, then pick a set that lists it. A blade that does not fit your tool is wasted money.
Count the blades you need
Piece counts range from one blade to 158 pieces on this page. A large metal job can use up a three-pack quickly. Pick a count that matches your plan, and keep a few spare blades for nails, screws, or pipe.
Check depth and width specs
Max cut depth is listed for only a few products on this page, so many makers do not publish it. Look at blade width too, since widths like 1-1/4 in and 2 in suit different cuts. If depth matters for your job, check the packaging or listing before buying.
FAQ
Are carbide oscillating blades better for metal?
Carbide teeth are listed on several products on this page and are often picked for hard metal and nails. Bi-metal is a common alternative. The better choice depends on the material you cut most. Check each product's blade material spec and compare it with your job before buying.
Which oscillating blades fit Starlock tools?
Several products on this page list Starlock fit, including the Bosch 5-Piece Starlock set, the Diablo 5-Piece Starlock set, and the Bosch 1-1/4 in Starlock Carbide Plunge Cut Blade. Several other blades on this page say they are not compatible with Starlock, so check the mount spec before ordering.
How many blades do I need for metal work?
The right count depends on the size of the job. Sets on this page range from one blade to 158 pieces. For a small job, a three-pack may be enough. For a larger project or mixed materials, a kit with more blades and types gives you more options.
Do oscillating blades cut nails?
Several products on this page list nail cutting, including the Bosch 5-Piece Starlock set, the Diablo 5-Piece Starlock set, and the EZARC three-pack. The CONNOO kit does not list nail cutting. Check the listing for the specific product before using it on nails, since not every set says it cuts them.
