Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool - Face Grooving with Chip Breaker - MFL-C - BXC Grade - 6mm Minimum Diameter x 1.5mm Groove Width (Left Hand)

The Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool - Face Grooving with Chip Breaker is a solid carbide bar designed specifically for precise face grooving. As part of the Tiny Tools family, it delivers clean, straight grooves with a built-in chip breaker to help manage chips and reduce chatter. Compatible with a wide range of materials, including stainless steels, this left-hand tool is sized for reliable, repeatable grooves.

Two coating grades give you options to match your cutting conditions: BXC TiN-coated for low-speed stainless work and BMK (sub-micron grade with a triple PVD coating) for high heat resistance and smooth cutting. This pairing provides dependable performance across common stainless steels (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40) and general-purpose materials, helping you choose the right balance of speed, safety, and longevity.

• Straight-groove geometry with chip breaker: engineered to produce clean, straight grooves with built-in chip control for easier part finishing and less post-processing.
• Coatings for versatility across conditions: BXC TiN coating excels at low-speed stainless work, while BMK’s triple PVD coating delivers exceptional heat resistance and smooth cutting for demanding applications.
• Precise, left-hand sizing for consistency: sized at 6 mm minimum diameter with a 1.5 mm groove width, designed for predictable results and easy integration into standard setups.

This tool helps you finish grooves with accuracy every time, reducing rework and downtime while delivering reliable results across materials. The carbide construction and tailored coatings mean longer life and steadier performance in production runs, making it a dependable choice for engineers, machinists, and shop floor operators alike.
