Description
The Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool is a precision broaching cutter designed to create small internal keyways inside blind or through holes on CNC machines. It integrates with standard Tiny holders and can be mounted in either the turret or the spindle, providing flexible setup for a range of CNC configurations. With a 1.2 mm minimum diameter, it enables compact keyways in tight spaces.
Built from BMK-grade carbide and featuring sub-micron-grade surface finish with an advanced PVD triple coating (ISO K10-K20), this tool is designed for demanding workpieces. The coating and material work together to resist heat and wear, delivering smooth cutting and reliable performance across a wide range of materials.
- Internal keyway broaching for CNC: Creates precise internal keyways in blind or through holes using standard CNC setups, delivering consistent fit and alignment with your shafts and keys.
- BMK carbide with sub-micron finish and PVD triple coating: Provides long tool life and stable cutting by resisting heat and wear, helping maintain sharpness across materials.
- Tiny holder compatibility and flexible mounting: Designed for use with standard Tiny holders (SIM…H#) and can be mounted in either the turret or spindle for quick setup and minimal downtime.
This tool combination helps you streamline production by delivering repeatable, accurate keyways with fewer rework cycles. The robust carbide and advanced coating minimize wear and heat buildup, while the flexible mounting and holder compatibility simplify integration into existing CNC workflows. Whether you’re manufacturing small components or setting up high-mix, low-volume runs, this broaching tool provides dependable performance and consistent results.
