Oscillating multi tools are the Swiss Army knives of power tools.  Swap blades and accessories to cut, plunge, scrape, grind or sand in awkward corners.  Cordless models add freedom of movement for trimming door jambs, removing grout and cutting pipes flush to surfaces.

What is a cordless multi-tool used for?

Cordless multi-tools are extremely versatile, making them ideal for:

• Cutting wood, metal, drywall, and plastic

• Sanding in tight corners or detail areas

• Scraping adhesive, sealant, or grout

• Grinding or polishing with specialty attachments
  Their oscillating action allows precise work in hard-to-reach areas, making them a must-have for renovators, fitters, and DIYers alike.

What should I look for in a cordless multi-tool?

Key features to consider:

• Brushless motor for better efficiency and tool life

• Variable speed control for adjusting to different materials

• Quick accessory change systems (tool-free clamping saves time)

• Battery voltage: 18V offers the best balance of power and runtime
  Also, check vibration control and ergonomics—important for extended use.

Are accessories universal across brands?

Not always. While many brands support universal OIS (Oscillating Interface System) blades and sanding pads, some use proprietary mounts. Always check whether your multi-tool is compatible with:

• OIS-standard accessories (most brands)

• Starlock system (Bosch, Fein, and others—requires Starlock-specific mount)
  Adapters are available, but best results come from matching accessories to the tool’s system.
