The Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool is a compact solid carbide grooving tool designed for precision, full-radius grooves on small-diameter workpieces. With a minimum diameter of 5.1 mm, a 1 mm groove width, and a 15 mm reach, it’s ideal for tight turning applications where accuracy and edge quality matter. It also serves as a versatile general turning tool when grooves aren’t required.

Available in two advanced carbide grades, this tiny tool is built to handle demanding materials. The BXC grade uses a PVD TiN coating optimized for low cutting speeds and stainless steels (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40). The BMK grade combines a sub-micron base with a triple PVD coating (ISO K10-K20), delivering exceptional heat resistance and smooth cutting across a wide material range.

  • Small-diameter full-radius grooving with long reach: 5.1 mm minimum diameter, 1 mm groove width, and 15 mm reach enable precise grooves on tight, hard-to-reach features without compromising edge quality.
  • Two advanced carbide grades for diverse materials: BXC provides reliable performance at low speeds on stainless steels, while BMK offers high heat resistance and smooth cutting across a broad material set.
  • Coating technology for reliable performance: PVD coatings reduce wear and maintain edge life, delivering consistent results across production runs.

By choosing the Carmex Tiny Tool, you gain precise control over small-radius grooves while maintaining tool life and versatility. The dual-grade options let you tailor performance to stainless steels or broader material ranges, helping optimize cutting conditions, reduce downtime, and achieve repeatable, high-quality finishes in turning and grooving tasks.
