Description

Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool – Full Radius Grooving, MKR, BXC Grade – is a solid carbide bar designed to handle full-radius grooving and can also be used for general turning jobs. With a 6.1 mm minimum diameter, 1 mm groove width, and a 15 mm reach, it accesses tight grooves and narrow pockets while delivering repeatable results.

This product line includes BXC Grade, a PVD TiN coated option optimized for low cutting speeds and broad stainless-steel compatibility (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40). It also features BMK Grade, a sub-micron option with advanced PVD triple coating for extremely high heat resistance and smooth cutting across materials, making it versatile for demanding turning and grooving tasks.

  • Full-radius grooving capability: Precisely shaped to produce consistent radii and reliable grooves, even in tight pockets, reducing rework and improving surface finish.
  • Versatile coating grades for broad material range: BXC Grade delivers efficient cutting at low speeds on stainless steels, while BMK Grade offers superior heat resistance and smooth cutting for tougher materials and longer tool life.
  • Compact, precise geometry: 6.1 mm minimum diameter, 1 mm groove width, and 15 mm reach to access narrow grooves and deep features with stable, accurate cuts.

Together, Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool provides dependable, repeatable grooves in tight spaces while offering coating options that optimize performance across a range of materials. The compact form and defined reach help streamline setup and workflows, delivering consistent turning and grooving results you can trust.
