Description

The Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool is a compact solid carbide boring bar designed for precision internal boring and general turning tasks. With a 2.5 mm minimum diameter and a 15 mm reach, it accesses tight pockets and short bores while delivering clean, accurate cuts. The R0.1 nose radius helps produce smooth finishes on small-diameter workpieces, and the slender, precision-ground body is optimized for confined-space applications.

  • Ultra-compact bore capability: Access tight bores and confined spaces with a 2.5 mm minimum diameter and 15 mm reach, while the R0.1 nose radius delivers clean, smooth finishes on small parts.
  • Two optimized coatings for versatility: BXC TiN coating supports low cutting speeds and stainless steels (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40); BMK sub-micron grade offers advanced PVD triple coating for exceptional heat resistance and smooth cutting across materials (ISO K10-K20).
  • K20-grade carbide for durability and precision: Solid carbide construction provides rigidity, stable cutting, and reliable performance across boring and general turning tasks.

This tiny tool is designed to improve workflow by delivering precise, repeatable bore results with fewer tool changes and consistent surface finishes, even on stainless steels and other challenging materials. The combination of compact geometry, coating versatility, and robust carbide construction translates into longer tool life, reduced downtime, and faster completion of tight-tolerance parts—making it a dependable choice for engineers, machinists, and hobbyists alike.
