Stanley 5-21-293 250mm Standard Flat Suform Blade

Key specs: approximately 250–255 mm cutting edge length, made from high-grade steel for durability, standard-cut serrated edge for material removal, protected with a plastic cover to keep the edge sharp and clean, and compatible with the Stanley 5-21-293 Surform tool.

Remove the plastic protective cover, align the blade with the tool’s blade holder, slide it into place, and secure it according to your Surform tool’s mounting method. After installation, reattach the protective cover if provided and test on a scrap piece before resuming work.

It’s suitable for trimming and shaping wood and plastic, including harder woods and thick synthetics, using the standard-cut edge to remove material efficiently and leave a smoother finish.

Keep the blade dry and clean, store it with the protective cover on when not in use, and avoid exposure to moisture to minimize rust. Regularly inspect the edge for nicks and replace if the edge is worn or damaged.

Wear eye protection and gloves, clamp the workpiece, keep hands away from the cutting edge, work with controlled motions, and avoid excessive force which can cause chatter or edge damage.
