The Carmex Grooving Insert is a precision cutting tool engineered for machinists who demand clean, accurate grooves in steel, stainless steel, and other metals. With straight sharp edges and a durable BXC coating, it delivers consistent performance across a range of grooving applications.

  • Edge geometry: Straight, sharp cutting edges designed to produce precise grooves with minimal burrs and excellent dimensional control.
  • Coating: BXC coating enhances hardness and heat resistance, reducing wear and cutting friction for longer tool life.
  • Model and compatibility: 16ER/IL0.50BXC construction, engineered to fit a broad selection of grooving holders for versatile setups.
  • Chip control: Optimized geometry promotes reliable chip flow and containment, helping maintain a smooth finish on the groove walls.
  • Material compatibility: Effective performance on steel, stainless steel, and other common base metals, delivering consistent groove quality across materials.
  • Durability and longevity: Carbide insert body with BXC coating provides durability for demanding grooving cycles in production environments.
  • Versatility: Designed for use with a wide range of grooving holders, enabling flexible integration into existing machining setups.

These inserts empower you to achieve precise groove widths and depths with reliable repeatability. The combination of sharp edge geometry and the BXC coating translates to improved surface finish, reduced tool wear, and lower downtime due to fewer reworks. Ideal for applications such as internal grooving on shafts, sealing grooves, and shoulders where tight tolerances are essential, the Carmex Grooving Inserts deliver consistent performance that professionals rely on.
