Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool for Deep Face Grooving is a compact, high-precision carbide bar designed to cut deep grooves in a single pass. Built for professionals—from engineers and machinists to hobbyists—this tool excels with stainless steels and other demanding materials. It features a 12 mm minimum diameter, a 2 mm groove width, and a 15 mm groove depth, enabling deep, accurate grooves with minimal finishing work.

The tool line offers coating options to match your cutting speed and material range. BXC grade provides a PVD TiN coating optimized for low cutting speeds and stainless steels (ISO P30–P50 / K25–K40), delivering reliable performance at conservative feeds. BMK grade uses a sub-micron, triple-coated PVD finish for broad material compatibility, excellent heat resistance, and smooth cutting for longer tool life.

• Deep-face grooving capability: Delivers accurate grooves up to 15 mm deep with a 2 mm width from a 12 mm diameter tool, enabling single-pass finishing and reliable tolerances on stainless steels and hard-to-cut materials.
• Coating options for performance: BXC TiN coating optimized for low-speed stainless cutting and corrosion resistance; BMK triple-coated grade delivers high heat resistance and smoother cutting across a wide material range, helping to extend tool life.
• Rigid carbide construction: Solid carbide design provides stiffness and wear resistance for consistent results in demanding grooves, minimizing chatter and reducing downtime due to tool wear.

Designed to streamline your workflow, this tool delivers reliable depth control, reduces downtime from tool changes, and helps you achieve consistent, high-quality grooves across production runs. The combination of carbide rigidity and coating technology translates to longer tool life and steadier performance, so you can finish jobs faster with less rework.
