The Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool - Face Grooving with Chip Breaker (MFL-C) is a precision solid carbide bar engineered specifically for face grooving. Designed for professionals and shop floors, it delivers straight grooves with reliable chip control, helping you achieve a clean, accurate finish on a wide range of materials—especially stainless steels. The BXC Grade uses a PVD TiN coating to optimize performance at lower cutting speeds, extending tool life and reducing wear in demanding setups.
These bars are sized for practical, repeatable integration: 8 mm minimum diameter and 3 mm groove width, with a left-hand cutting orientation to match common turning operations and feed directions. This combination supports stable engagement, predictable results, and straightforward setup within existing tooling systems.
- Straight groove geometry with chip breaker: Delivers precise, straight face grooves and manages chips effectively for safer, cleaner cuts at low speeds.
- BXC Grade — TiN-coated carbide for stainless steels: PVD TiN coating reduces wear and heat at low cutting speeds, delivering consistent performance on stainless steels (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40).
- Left-hand, 8 mm min diameter x 3 mm groove width: Optimized for stable engagement and repeatable grooves, designed to fit common left-hand machining setups.
With the Carmex Tiny Tool MFL-C in your toolkit, you gain reliable tool life, consistent groove quality, and smoother cutting actions across a variety of materials. The result is reduced downtime, fewer reworks, and a dependable, repeatable groove profile that enhances overall machining performance.
