Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool - Face Grooving bars are precision solid carbide tools designed specifically for face grooving operations. With an 8 mm minimum diameter and a 1 mm groove width, these bars create straight, flat grooves that help deliver consistent surface finishes. They’re ideal for engineers, machinists, hobbyists, and maintenance teams who demand reliable, repeatable results in metalworking.

The Tiny Tools family offers two coating grades to match different cutting conditions: BXC TiN-coated grade for low-speed applications and stainless steels (ISO P30–P50 / K25–K40), and BMK sub-micron grade with a triple PVD coating for exceptional heat resistance and smooth cutting (ISO K10–K20). This versatility makes the tool suitable for a broad range of materials and production needs.

• Straight-groove geometry for precise faces: Engineered to produce straight grooves, ensuring flat, uniform faces and accurate groove dimensions with minimal need for rework.
• Coating options for tailored performance: Choose BXC TiN for dependable cutting at lower speeds on stainless steels, or BMK’s triple PVD coating for high heat resistance and smooth cutting across more materials.
• Rugged carbide with broad material compatibility: Solid carbide core provides stiffness and long tool life, while advanced coatings expand compatibility to a wide range of materials and demanding conditions.

This combination translates to faster setup, fewer tool changes, and repeatable finishes across jobs. The coatings help control wear and heat buildup, enabling consistent performance from the first cut to the last. With an 8 mm minimum diameter and a 1 mm groove width, Carmex Tiny Tool bars offer a compact, dependable solution for face grooving in production, maintenance, and DIY projects alike.
