Description

Introducing the Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool for deep face grooving — a compact, solid carbide bar engineered to tackle deep groove cuts with reliable, repeatable accuracy. Designed for left-hand grooving with a 15 mm minimum diameter, 3 mm groove width, and 27 mm groove depth, this tool is built for demanding production environments and precise grooves in stainless steels and other metals. The blue-coated body aids handling and visibility during setup, helping you work quickly and confidently.

  • BMK Sub-micron Grade with PVD Triple Coating: Advanced PVD triple coating delivers extremely high heat resistance (ISO K10-K20) for maximum performance and smooth cutting, which translates to longer tool life and more consistent results across materials.
  • Deep-face Grooving-optimized Geometry: Specifically designed for deep face grooves, this tool’s geometry supports up to 27 mm groove depth with stable cutting, reducing chatter and improving groove quality per pass.
  • Broad Stainless-Steel Compatibility: Works well with a wide range of stainless steels (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40), enabling reliable performance and longer service life with fewer tool changes in production runs.

With the Carmex Tiny Tool, you gain repeatable groove quality, longer tool life, and smoother operation across challenging materials. The combination of BMK-grade coating and deep-face geometry minimizes heat buildup and cutting resistance, allowing faster cycles and fewer interruptions. This supports a more efficient workflow, higher part consistency, and improved overall production throughput.
