The Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool is a compact boring bar built for precision micro-boring and internal operations. Crafted from K20 grade solid carbide, it delivers the rigidity and edge retention needed for long tool life. With a 2.1 mm minimum diameter, a 10 mm reach, and a nose radius of R0.15 in a left-hand configuration, it’s optimized for small-diameter bores and consistent hole quality. While designed primarily for boring, it also handles light turning tasks, giving you a versatile option in a single tool.
This tool is part of Carmex’s carbide bar family and offers coating options to match your material and speed. The BXC - PVD TiN coated grade is ideal for low cutting speeds and works well with a wide range of stainless steels (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40). For demanding materials and higher heat, the BMK - sub-micron grade with advanced PVD triple coating delivers maximum heat resistance and smooth cutting across many materials (ISO K10-K20). These coatings help extend edge life, reduce friction, and maintain cutting performance across different jobs.
- 2.1 mm minimum diameter with 10 mm reach (Left-Hand): Precisely designed for tight, internal bores, this micro-boring bar minimizes deflection and helps you achieve tight tolerances along the full length of the cut.
- Coating options for optimized material compatibility: Choose BXC TiN for stainless steels at low speeds to reduce wear and friction, or BMK triple-coated for high heat resistance and smoother cuts across a broad range of materials.
- Solid carbide construction for durability and reliability: Rugged carbide provides long edge life and stable performance under heavy use, reducing tool changes and delivering consistent surface finishes.
Designed to support faster, more reliable production and job-shop workflows, the Carmex Tiny Tool helps you achieve precise bores, smoother finishes, and fewer interruptions. The combination of micro-diameter geometry, specialized coatings, and a tough K20 carbide body translates to dependable performance across stainless steels and other common metals, enhancing overall productivity and confidence in every job.
