Description

The Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool is a compact boring bar crafted from solid carbide, engineered for precise small-diameter bore work. With a 2.1 mm minimum diameter, a 10 mm reach, and left-hand R0 geometry, it delivers clean holes in tight spaces while staying rigid under load. While primarily designed for boring, it also handles general turning tasks, making it a versatile choice for precision machining.

Two coating-grade options align with material and speed needs: BXC is a PVD TiN-coated grade optimized for low cutting speeds and stainless steels (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40). BMK is a sub-micron grade with a triple PVD coating, offering excellent heat resistance and smooth cutting for broad material compatibility.

  • Tiny-diameter bore capability for tight holes: The 2.1 mm minimum diameter and 10 mm reach enable precise holes in small parts and confined spaces, reducing setup time and secondary operations.
  • Coated carbide options for durability and smooth cutting: Choose BXC TiN coating for reliable performance at lower speeds on stainless steels, or BMK triple-coated carbide for high heat resistance and smooth cutting across materials.
  • Versatile for boring and general turning: Optimized for boring yet capable of handling general turning jobs, delivering consistent results and a streamlined workflow in mixed machining tasks.

With the Carmex Tiny Tool, you gain consistent hole quality, reduced setup time, and fewer tool changes in tight-workpiece scenarios. The solid carbide construction provides rigidity and repeatable results, while the specialized coatings help manage heat and wear for longer tool life. This makes it a reliable, go-to solution for precision small-diameter work across production shops, workshops, and hobby setups alike.
