Taytools Replacement Blade for Block Plane, 0.110″ Thick 1-5/8″ Wide

Description

Product Overview

The Taytools 467184 replacement blade is a precision‑engineered iron designed specifically for low angle block planes. Constructed from high‑grade alloy steel, the blade is hardened and tempered to a Rockwell hardness of 55‑60, ensuring exceptional durability and edge retention. With a thickness of 0.110 inches, a width of 1‑5/8 inches, and a length of 4‑1/4 inches, the iron provides a balanced profile that fits seamlessly into the Taytools plane chassis. The bevel is ground to a 25‑degree angle, offering a comfortable cutting geometry that reduces user fatigue while delivering clean, accurate cuts. Although the blade arrives pre‑ground, a final honing is recommended to achieve a razor‑sharp edge tailored to your specific woodworking needs. The modern silver finish not only looks professional but also resists corrosion, extending the life of the tool.

Usage

This replacement blade excels in a variety of woodworking scenarios, from fine joinery to larger stock removal. Whether you are planing hardwoods such as oak and maple, softwoods like pine, or exotic species, the hardened alloy steel maintains consistent performance. The blade’s dimensions make it ideal for trimming, smoothing, and preparing surfaces for finishing. It is particularly well‑suited for craftsmen who require a low angle cut to achieve a tight fit in dovetail joints or to flatten panels with minimal tear‑out. The iron can be used in both hand‑fed and bench‑mounted setups, making it versatile for hobbyists and professional woodworkers alike. Its compatibility with the Taytools low angle block plane ensures a secure fit, allowing you to focus on technique rather than tool alignment.
