The Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool - Face Grooving is a solid carbide bar engineered specifically for face grooving tasks. ItCreates straight, precise grooves that ensure reliable seating and alignment, making it ideal for seals, bushings, and other components where a clean, axial groove matters.

Designed for versatility and consistent performance, this tool is offered in the MFR - K20 grade with an 8 mm minimum diameter and a 2.5 mm groove width. It features two coating options to suit different materials and speeds: BXC, a PVD TiN-coated grade optimized for lower cutting speeds on a wide range of stainless steels (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40); and BMK, a sub-micron grade with an advanced PVD triple coating for exceptional heat resistance and smooth cutting (ISO K10-K20). This combination delivers dependable results across diverse materials and production conditions.

• Straight groove geometry for precise results: Produces straight grooves for accurate seating and consistent engagement, reducing rework and finishing steps.
• Coating versatility for broad material support: BXC works well with stainless steels at low speeds, while BMK offers extreme heat resistance—extending tool life and expanding material compatibility.
• Robust carbide construction with exact dimensions: K20-grade carbide in an 8 mm minimum diameter and 2.5 mm groove width provides stable, repeatable grooves under demanding machining conditions.

This Tiny Tools family tool is built to improve workflow by delivering dependable, straight grooves with long-lasting performance. Whether you’re setting seals, aligning components, or preparing precision fits, it helps you finish jobs faster with fewer adjustments and higher consistency across batches.
