The Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool – Face Grooving with Chip Breaker is a precision solid carbide bar designed specifically for face grooving. It delivers straight grooves with reliable chip control, making it ideal for engineers, machinists, and fabrication shops that require consistent groove geometry and dependable performance. The tool is sized for common face grooving setups, featuring an 8 mm minimum diameter and a 3 mm groove width to fit standard applications.
- Exact straight grooves with integrated chip control: Engineered to produce true, straight grooves (not rounded) with a built‑in chip breaker for cleaner cuts, better swarf management, and reduced rework.
- Two coating grades for versatile material handling: BXC is a PVD TiN-coated option optimized for low cutting speeds and stainless steels (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40); BMK is a sub‑micron grade with triple PVD coating for exceptional heat resistance and smooth cutting across a wide material range.
- Rigid carbide design with precise geometry: MFR-C TNX Grade delivers durable, stable cutting in demanding grooves, ensuring reliable performance and long tool life in everyday face grooving tasks.
This tool supports improved workflow with predictable groove dimensions, efficient chip management, and coatings tailored to your material and process window. With its robust carbide construction and purpose‑built geometry, you can trust it to deliver consistent results across stainless steels and general-purpose applications, while minimizing tool changes and downtime.
