The Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool is a compact solid carbide cutter designed for full-radius grooving as well as general turning tasks. Sized for tight spaces, it features a 6.1 mm minimum diameter x 0.6 mm groove width and a 10 mm reach, enabling precise grooves in challenging bores and pockets. Part of the MKR family, it’s built to deliver repeatable results in a variety of machining setups.

Two coating grades are available to suit different materials and speeds. BXC Grade uses a PVD TiN coating for low cutting speeds and works well with a wide range of stainless steels (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40). BMK Grade is a sub-micron, PVD triple-coated option that delivers extremely high heat resistance and smooth cutting, making it suitable for demanding materials and general-purpose use (ISO K10-K20).

• Full-radius grooving precision: engineered to produce accurate, consistent full-radius grooves with a stable 10 mm reach and a 0.6 mm groove width, even in tight bores.
• Two grade options for versatility: choose BXC for low-speed cuts on stainless steels or BMK for high-heat, demanding applications, giving you optimal performance across materials.
• Durable carbide construction with long life: a solid carbide core paired with protective coatings delivers reliable wear resistance and smooth cutting for extended tool life and fewer tool changes.

This tool delivers a reliable, high-precision grooving solution that fits compact turning setups, helps maintain groove geometry, and supports efficient workflows across stainless steels and other materials. The MKR design with two coating grades provides flexibility to optimize speed, finish, and durability in your everyday machining tasks.
