Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool - Face Grooving with Chip Breaker - MFL-C - BXC Grade is a precision solid carbide tool designed specifically for face grooving on a wide range of metals. With a left-hand configuration and a built-in chip breaker, it produces clean, straight grooves at a 5 mm minimum diameter and 1.5 mm groove width, helping you achieve consistent depth and a smooth surface finish in your machining setup.

Part of the Tiny Tools family, these carbide bars are engineered for reliable performance in face grooving. The BXC Grade features a PVD TiN coating for low cutting speeds and is well-suited for a broad range of stainless steels (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40). For broader versatility, the BMK option offers a sub-micron grade with an advanced PVD triple coating, delivering excellent heat resistance and smooth cutting across various materials.

• Straight-groove geometry: These bars are designed to produce straight grooves, delivering consistent dimensions and a cleaner finish compared with rounded groove alternatives.
• PVD TiN-coated BXC grade for stainless steels: Optimized for low cutting speeds, it provides reliable performance with a wide range of stainless steels (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40) and effective chip control.
• High-heat BMK option for broad material compatibility: Sub-micron BMK grade with triple coating offers exceptional heat resistance and smooth cutting, making it suitable for a broad spectrum of materials.

This combination of precise groove geometry, coating-optimized performance, and durable construction helps you reduce setup time, improve cut quality, and extend tool life—supporting consistent results across demanding projects.
