Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool – Face Grooving is a solid carbide bar designed specifically for face grooving applications. With a 6 mm minimum diameter and a 0.5 mm groove width, it delivers straight, uniform grooves for precise seating and consistent finishes in demanding machining environments.
Two coating options tailor performance to your material and speed: BXC is a PVD TiN-coated grade optimized for low cutting speeds on a wide range of stainless steels (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40), while BMK is a sub-micron grade with advanced PVD triple coating that offers extremely high heat resistance and smooth cutting (ISO K10-K20). General purpose for all materials.
- Straight groove geometry for precise, repeatable grooves: Specifically developed for face grooving, these bars produce straight grooves, helping ensure consistent depths and cleaner finishes on every part.
- Coating options tailored to cutting conditions: Choose BXC TiN-coated grade for low-speed stainless work or BMK triple-coated grade for high-heat, smooth cutting— engineered to match your material and speed requirements.
- Rugged carbide with broad material compatibility: Solid carbide construction from the Tiny Tools family delivers reliable performance across a wide range of materials, including stainless steels, with general-purpose capability for multiple applications.
This tool helps streamline machining workflows by delivering consistent grooves, reducing rework and downtime, and enabling reliable results across a broad material set. The combination of straight groove geometry, specialized coatings, and durable carbide supports faster setup, better surface finish, and more predictable performance in both production and precision work.
