Meet the Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool, a compact solid carbide grooving tool designed for deep-face grooves. It’s ideal for engineers, machinists, and hobbyists who need precise groove profiles in tight spaces. With a 12 mm minimum diameter, a 2 mm groove width, and a 22 mm groove depth, this tool enables robust, single‑pass grooving for demanding materials.

Two grade options in this line optimize performance across common materials: the BXC TiN-coated grade provides reliable cutting at lower speeds and strong stainless steel compatibility, while the BMK-grade offers exceptional heat resistance and smooth cutting for tougher jobs. This combination gives you flexibility and confidence across a range of projects.

• Deep-face grooving capability: Precisely engineered for deep grooves, it achieves a 22 mm depth with a 2 mm width, enabling accurate profiles in a single setup and reducing the need for additional finishing steps.
• BXC TiN-coated grade for stainless steels: The TiN coating reduces friction and wear at lower cutting speeds, delivering reliable performance on stainless steels and helping extend tool life between changes.
• BMK-grade option for high-heat resistance and smooth cutting: The BMK grade features advanced PVD triple coating for excellent heat resistance and a smoother cutting action, ideal for demanding materials and longer production runs.

This tool supports efficient workflow by delivering consistent groove dimensions, reducing cycle times, and minimizing downtime. Its robust carbide core, combined with targeted coatings, helps resist wear across a range of materials while maintaining a clean, precise groove finish—helping you achieve repeatable results and dependable performance across your grooving tasks.
