Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool – Face Grooving bars are solid carbide tools designed specifically for creating straight, precise face grooves. Part of the Tiny Tools family, these bars deliver clean, repeatable channels with dependable performance across a range of materials. They feature an 8 mm minimum diameter and a 1.5 mm groove width, making them suitable for common face-grooving setups and consistent results project after project.

Two coating grades give you flexibility for different materials and speeds. BXC TiN-coated bars are tuned for low-speed cutting, delivering reliable wear resistance on a broad range of stainless steels (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40). BMK-grade bars use a sub-micron structure with a triple PVD coating, delivering exceptionally high heat resistance and smooth cutting, making them a strong general-purpose choice for many materials (ISO K10-K20).

• Straight groove geometry: Produces straight, uniform grooves for precise channels, improving dimensional accuracy and surface finish on every part.
• Two high-performance coatings for versatility: BXC TiN-coated bars enable reliable, low-speed cutting on stainless steels; BMK triple-coated bars provide high heat resistance and smooth cutting for demanding materials.
• Durable carbide with wide material compatibility: Solid carbide construction offers long tool life and predictable performance across a broad range of materials, including stainless steels.

With the Carmex Tiny Tool for face grooving, you gain consistent, clean grooves with reduced rework and faster setup. The coatings help minimize wear and heat buildup, extending tool life and sustaining stable performance across different materials and speeds. The compact size (8 mm minimum diameter and 1.5 mm groove width) complements common fixtures and empowers reliable, repeatable results across your workflow.
