The Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool for Face Grooving is a solid carbide bar designed to create precise, straight grooves on the face of your workpieces. It’s built for engineers, machinists, buyers, tradespeople, and hobbyists who need repeatable groove geometry with clean edges, even when working with stainless steels and other common metals.

With a 6 mm minimum diameter and a 2 mm groove width, this Tiny Tool is ready for robust use in busy shops. It features advanced PVD-coated carbide grades to optimize cutting conditions: BXC provides reliable performance at lower speeds suitable for stainless steels, while BMK offers exceptional heat resistance and smooth cutting for versatile, all-material applicability.

• Precision straight-groove geometry: Delivers clean, repeatable straight grooves with sharp edges, reducing finishing passes and rework for faster, more consistent results.
• Dual PVD-coated carbide grades: BXC with TiN coating for low-speed stainless-steel cutting and BMK with a sub-micron, triple coating for high heat resistance and smooth cutting across a broad material range.
• Rugged carbide with exact dimensions: 6 mm minimum diameter and 2 mm groove width provide stable cutting, long tool life, and fewer tool changes in demanding face-grooving tasks.

Using this tool helps you streamline production by delivering precise grooves with consistent edge quality, reducing secondary processing, downtime, and scrap. The coated BMK and BXC grades extend tool life in challenging materials like stainless steel, while the solid carbide construction stays rigid under load for reliable performance over long production runs. For anyone needing dependable, repeatable face grooving results, this tool supports tighter tolerances, faster cycles, and lower overall tooling costs.
