Description

Introducing the Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool — a compact threading bar designed for 55° partial-profile threads in tight spaces. With a 5.1 mm diameter and 15 mm reach, it’s ideal for micro-threading tasks in small bores and fixtures. Built for consistency and long tool life, this tool helps engineers, machinists, hobbyists, and technicians achieve accurate thread forms in stainless steels and a broad range of materials.

  • 55° partial-profile threading for tiny bores: Designed to cut 55-degree threads in confined areas, featuring a compact 5.1 mm diameter and 15 mm reach, suitable for bores down to 1.2 mm (0.05 in).
  • Coating options for wear resistance and heat management: Choose BXC TiN coating for low-speed cutting in stainless steels (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40) or BMK triple-coated sub-micron grade for exceptional heat resistance and smoother cutting across a wide material range.
  • Durable carbide, precise and reliable: Engineered for consistent thread quality and long tool life, minimizing downtime and delivering repeatable results in demanding applications.

This tiny threading tool helps you complete precise micro-threading tasks quickly and confidently, even in tight spaces. Its small footprint, versatile coating options, and robust carbide construction translate to fewer tool changes, cleaner thread forms, and improved overall productivity—from prototypes to production runs.
