Frankly if you consider value then the Porter-Cable really beats them all out. This feature alone pushes the Porter-Cable tool to the top of the list just shy of the Fein. The Porter-Cable PC250MTK Oscillating Multi-Tool is very impressive! Finally a multi-tool that doesn’t require an Allen Wrench in order to change blades. The Porter-Cable produced similar results and easily completed the tasks I was working on. Since I was so impressed with that tool I was eager to see how this one compared and I was pleasantly surprised. This multi-tool has very similar spec’s with regard to the motor and oscillations of the Bosch MX25EK-33 that I reviewed earlier this year. I tested the Porter-Cable Multi-Tool on several projects including sanding, cutting and scraping. Hopefully Porter-Cable will offer a robust selection of accessories so they can compete with others that offer a wide range of accessories. This tool will not accept other brands even ones that are now using the new Oscillating Interface System (OIS). You have to use Porter-Cable blades and accessories. Other brands use a solid blade that just has a hole in the center for the screw. As you can see the back of the blades is open in a “U” shape so that the blade can slide under the receiving “teeth”. The spring loaded release holds the blades and accessories in place beautifully! However, I was more than impressed with the design and functionality. At first I was nervous that it might be a gimmick and unable to hold the blades in place during such intense vibration. However, the Fein system is at a price point that excludes many users especially in the DIY and home improvement arena.
#PORTER CABLE MULTI TOOL FREE#
The Tool-Free System™ really impresses me! Up until now the only oscillating tool on the market with tool free operation was Fein. I really like the long 10′ cable that eliminates the need for extension cords in many cases. The barrel grip is comfortable and well balanced. This tool includes an easy to use dial switch for adjusting the motor speed. The big difference here is the Tool-Free System™ which improves the speed of changing accessories but also ensures that the accessory doesn’t loosen during operation. (1) 1-1/2″ x 1-5/8″ Precision Wood End-Cut Blade, (1) 1-1/2″ x 1-5/8″ Wood End-Cut Blade, (1) 1-1/2″ x 1-5/8″ Wood/Metal End-Cut Blade, (1) 4″ Half-Segment Wood Blade, (1) Carbide Grout, (1) Sanding Platen, (9) Sheets 60 Grit Sandpaper, (9) Sheets 120 Grit Sandpaper, (9) Sheets 240 Grit Sandpaper, (1) Rigid Scraper, (1) Flexible Scraper.įor the most part the Porter-Cable PC250MTK is very similar to all of the other oscillating tools that I’ve used. The Porter-Cable PC250MTK comes with a good plastic carrying case and an assortment of accessories. TOOL-FREE SYSTEM™ Accessory Change: YES.10-Foot Cord For Access To Applications.
