Description

The Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool is a compact, solid carbide grooving tool built for full-radius grooves in tight spaces. Its left-hand geometry and 22 mm reach help you access narrow features on small parts while delivering clean, precise groove profiles. The tool’s 7.1 mm minimum diameter and 1 mm groove width are paired with robust carbide construction to handle your most demanding grooving tasks.

Designed for turning and grooving alike, it’s equally effective for general turning on a range of materials. It’s offered in two high-performance grades: BXC TiN-coated carbide for low-speed stainless-steel workpieces, and BMK sub-micron grade with a triple PVD coating for maximum heat resistance and smooth cutting across materials. This combination gives you the right balance of wear resistance, edge life, and process stability for busy shops.

  • Full-radius grooving performance: Delivers clean, consistent full-radius grooves in a single pass, reducing finishing steps and improving surface finish on stainless steels and other tough materials.
  • Two coated carbide grades for versatility: BXC provides reliable wear resistance at low cutting speeds for stainless steels, while BMK offers exceptional heat resistance and smooth cutting across a wide range of materials.
  • Compact, left-hand geometry for tight workspaces: 7.1 mm minimum diameter, 1 mm groove width, and 22 mm reach in a left-hand configuration to reach narrow grooves and maintain stable chip control during turning.

Designed for professional workshops and serious hobbyists alike, the Carmex Tiny Tool helps you achieve repeatable groove accuracy, reduces tool changes, and maintains steady productivity across common materials. Its coated carbide construction and precise geometry deliver reliable results, maximize uptime, and instill confidence in every cut.
