The Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool is a precision solid carbide bar designed for full-radius grooving on small-diameter workpieces. With a minimum diameter of 6.1 mm, a 1 mm groove width, and a 15 mm reach in a left-hand configuration, it delivers accurate grooves in tight spaces. While optimized for grooving, the tool is also well-suited for general turning, providing a versatile single-tool solution for demanding machining tasks.

Built around the BMK grade, a sub-micron carbide with advanced PVD triple coating (ISO K10-K20), it offers extremely high heat resistance and smooth cutting. This combination supports reliable performance across a wide range of materials, including stainless steels, making it a dependable choice for both professional shops and dedicated hobbyists.

  • Full-radius grooving and general turning versatility: Designed specifically for full-radius grooves on small-diameter parts and capable of general turning, reducing tool changes and improving workflow.
  • BMK-grade PVD-coated carbide for heat resistance: Sub-micron BMK grade with advanced PVD triple coating delivers exceptional heat resistance and smooth cutting for consistent finishes across materials.
  • Compact, left-hand geometry for tight applications: 6.1 mm minimum diameter, 1 mm groove width, and 15 mm reach in a left-hand orientation ensure predictable engagement and easy setup in confined radii.

This tool helps you complete precise grooves on small parts with fewer passes, while delivering smooth finishes and extended edge life thanks to the BMK coating. The compact geometry and defined reach help you access tight radii and maintain stable cutting, improving workflow, reducing downtime, and delivering repeatable results across materials, including stainless steels.
