Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool - Deep Face Grooving - MVL - BXC Grade - 12mm Minimum Diameter x 2mm Groove Width x 15mm Groove Depth (Left Hand)

The Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool is a solid carbide tool designed specifically for deep face grooving. Its compact 12 mm minimum diameter, 2 mm groove width, and 15 mm groove depth provide a precise, repeatable groove on a wide range of metal parts—from prototypes to production runs. This tool is ideal for engineers, machinists, and fabricators who need dependable performance in challenging grooving tasks.

Designed for stainless steels and a broad spectrum of metals, this MVL BXC-grade tool employs a PVD TiN coating to enhance wear resistance at lower cutting speeds. It delivers consistent results and longer edge life on stainless steels (ISO P30–P50 / K25–K40), helping you maintain productivity in demanding setups.

• Deep-face grooving optimization: Precise geometry and edge preparation enable clean, repeatable grooves up to 15 mm deep with a 2 mm width, starting from a 12 mm diameter, reducing finishing passes and rework.
• PVD TiN-coated MVL BXC grade for stainless steels: The coating minimizes wear and heat build-up, providing reliable performance at low cutting speeds and extending tool life on stainless steels (ISO P30–P50 / K25–K40).
• Rigid carbide core for durability: Solid carbide construction delivers stiffness and stability under heavy cuts, yielding smoother finishes and fewer tool changes even in demanding grooving jobs.

By combining precise geometry, protective coating, and a durable carbide core, this tool helps you complete deep groove work more quickly and consistently. Expect improved workflow with fewer interruptions, longer tool life, and reliable, high-quality grooves across a range of materials and part sizes.
