Stanley 5-21-293 250mm Flat Suform Fine Cut Blade

It’s versatile for both hard and soft materials, including plasterboard, tile trimming, and other soft substrates where a fine finish is needed.

Key specs: 255 mm length, made from hardened steel for durability, designed for use with all Stanley Surform planes, lightweight and easy to replace for precise cuts.

The Fine Cut blade is optimized for a smoother, finer finish with more controlled material removal, while a Coarse Cut blade removes material more aggressively for faster shaping. Use Fine Cut for detail work and precise surfaces.

Power off and secure your work area. Remove the existing blade by loosening the securing mechanism on your Surform plane, slide in the new Fine Cut blade ensuring it seats evenly, then tighten the securing mechanism. Use light, controlled strokes for best results.

Use it for precise trimming of tiles and plasterboard edges, grooving and shaping soft materials, and achieving a fine finish on flat or contoured surfaces.

Yes. This Fine Cut blade is designed to be compatible with all Stanley Surform planes, offering easy replacement and consistent performance.

Wear safety glasses and cut-resistant gloves. Handle blades by the edges, keep fingers away from the cutting edge, and work with a firm grip and steady motions to avoid slips. Ensure the tool is off and cool before changing blades.

Keep the blade dry and clean after use, wipe away dust, and store in a dry place. Avoid bending or dropping the blade, and replace immediately if the edge becomes nicked or damaged.

At 255 mm, the blade covers a substantial working length, enabling smoother progress on longer cuts and even surfaces. Use it for flat surfaces and longer grooves where a consistent, fine finish is desired.
