Description

The Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool is a solid carbide boring bar designed for precision in small-diameter bores. With a 2.1 mm minimum diameter, a 15 mm reach, and a precise R0.1 nose, it’s built to handle tight tolerances and demanding turning tasks in a compact form. While designed primarily for boring, it also performs well on general turning jobs.

This tool is offered in two coated grades to suit different materials and speeds: BXC, a PVD TiN coated grade optimized for low cutting speeds and stainless steels (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40); and BMK, a sub-micron grade with a advanced PVD triple coating for extremely high heat resistance and smooth cutting (ISO K10-K20). General-purpose BMK makes it versatile for a wide range of materials.

  • Two advanced coating options for versatile performance: Choose BXC TiN for stainless steels at low speeds, or BMK’s triple PVD coating for broad material compatibility and high heat resistance.
  • Ultra-compact bore capability: 2.1 mm minimum diameter with a 15 mm reach and R0.1 nose radius enables precise, stable boring in tight cavities and small turning tasks.
  • Durable solid carbide construction: Solid carbide provides rigidity and wear resistance for consistent cutting performance and longer tool life under demanding conditions.

Whether you’re building small components or tackling maintenance work in confined spaces, the Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool delivers reliable, repeatable results. The dual coatings let you tailor performance to your material and speed, while the compact geometry reduces setup time and allows access to hard-to-reach bores. Rigid carbide construction helps maintain smooth, precise cuts across long runs, making this tiny tool a dependable choice for engineers, shop floors, and hobbyists alike.
