Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool - Face Grooving with Chip Breaker - MFR-C - BXC Grade - 8mm Minimum Diameter x 1.5mm Groove Width

Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool - Face Grooving with Chip Breaker is a solid carbide tool bar designed for face grooving on CNC mills and lathes. Part of the Tiny Tools family, these bars produce straight grooves for consistent seating and a clean finish. With an 8 mm minimum diameter and a 1.5 mm groove width, this tool is ready for common groove applications and easy to drop in to existing setups.

Two coating grades provide versatility for material and speed choices: BXC is a PVD TiN-coated grade optimized for low-speed cutting of stainless steels (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40), while BMK is a sub-micron grade with a triple PVD coating that delivers high heat resistance and smooth cutting across materials.

• Precision straight-groove geometry: Designed for face grooving, these bars create straight grooves for accurate seating and a clean finish, avoiding rounded profiles that can affect fit.
• Coating-grade versatility for stainless and general materials: BXC TiN-coated grade handles low-speed stainless cutting (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40), while BMK's sub-micron, triple-coated construction offers high heat resistance for demanding materials and higher-speed operations.
• Chip breaker integration for better chip control: The built-in chip breaker helps break chips predictably, reducing chip buildup and improving surface quality and tool life.

This tool helps you complete grooves with consistency, reduces rework, and speeds up setup. The straight-groove geometry and dual-grade coatings deliver reliable results across stainless steels and other materials, while the chip-breaker design simplifies chip management and extends tool life. For shops looking to streamline face-grooving tasks, these Tiny Tools bars offer dependable performance, predictable results, and a clear path to improved throughput.
