Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool - Face Grooving, MFR - BXC Grade, 10 mm Minimum Diameter x 2.5 mm Groove Width is a solid carbide bar designed specifically for face grooving operations. This compact tool from the Tiny Tools family delivers straight grooves with tight, repeatable geometry, helping you achieve clean slots on stainless steels and other materials. Built for reliability in production or workshop settings, it combines precise cutting with durable construction.

The BXC grade uses a PVD TiN coating optimized for low cutting speeds, extending tool life and reducing wear when working with stainless steels. In the Tiny Tools lineup you’ll also find BMK-grade options for even higher heat resistance and smooth cutting, offering flexible performance across a broad range of materials.

• Straight groove geometry: Designed to produce straight, consistent grooves for easy finishing and repeatable results across multiple parts.
• PVD TiN-coated carbide for low-speed cutting: TiN coating reduces wear and heat at low cutting speeds, helping you achieve longer tool life and a better surface finish on stainless steels.
• Wide stainless steel compatibility: Works across a broad ISO range (P30-P50 / K25-K40) and delivers reliable performance on common stainless grades.

With this tool, you gain predictable groove geometry that minimizes post-machining work, faster setup, and greater consistency in production runs. The TiN-coated carbide is designed to handle stainless steels efficiently at low speeds, reducing tool changes and downtime while preserving cut quality. Compact and robust, the 10 mm diameter and 2.5 mm groove width fit standard holders, making it a versatile choice for job shops, engineers, and fabricators seeking reliable, repeatable face grooving results.
