Description

The Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool is a compact, solid carbide boring bar designed for precise internal boring and tight turning in small parts. With a 2.1 mm minimum diameter, a 5 mm reach, and a 0.05 mm nose radius, it delivers accurate cuts in narrow bores and hard-to-reach features.

Built to suit a range of materials and applications, it offers two coated grades to optimize performance. The BXC TiN-coated option excels at low cutting speeds and performs well with a wide range of stainless steels (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40). For high-heat or demanding cutting, the BMK sub-micron grade with a triple PVD coating provides excellent heat resistance and smooth cutting, making it a reliable general-purpose choice for many materials (ISO K10-K20).

  • Ultra-compact bore capability: 2.1 mm minimum diameter with a 5 mm reach and a 0.05 mm nose radius to access tight bores and produce precise, clean finishes in small-part work.
  • Two coating options for material-specific performance: choose BXC TiN for stainless steels at low speeds, or BMK with triple PVD coating for high heat resistance and smooth cuts across a wide material range.
  • Solid carbide durability with reliable results: engineered for consistent performance and long tool life in demanding turning and boring tasks, reducing downtime and rework.

This Tiny Tool helps you complete intricate internal features with confidence, improving workflow and enabling tighter tolerances without compromising surface finish. Its compact size, versatile coatings, and robust carbide construction make it a dependable choice for engineers, machinists, and hobbyists tackling small-bore projects or general turning alongside precision requirements.
