The Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool is a solid carbide bar engineered for face grooving with an integrated chip breaker. It’s built to deliver straight, repeatable grooves with clean chip control, making it an ideal choice for professionals who demand consistent results in stainless steels and a range of other materials.

This Tiny Tool (MFL-C, K20 grade) is designed for reliability and versatility. It features coated carbide options to match your cutting speed and material needs. The BXC TiN-coated grade is optimized for low cutting speeds and broad stainless-steel compatibility (ISO P30-P50 / K25-K40), while the BMK sub-micron grade with advanced PVD triple coating offers exceptional heat resistance for maximum performance and smooth cutting (ISO K10-K20). The tool’s geometry is tailored for face grooving with a 6 mm minimum diameter and a 1.5 mm groove width, and it is left-hand oriented for predictable toolpaths in standard setups.

• Straight-groove geometry with chip breaker: Delivers clean, straight grooves with controlled chip flow for easier deburring and consistent groove width.
• Two advanced coatings for versatility and durability: BXC TiN-coated grade excels at low speeds on stainless steels; BMK triple-coated grade delivers high heat resistance and smooth cutting across demanding jobs.
• Precisely sized, left-hand design: 6 mm minimum diameter and 1.5 mm groove width in a left-hand configuration ensure compatibility with common grooving setups and repeatable results.

With this tool, you gain reliable groove quality, improved workflow, and longer tool life across stainless steels and other materials within its coating range. The combination of straight-groove geometry, chip control, and durable coatings reduces downtime, lowers rework, and helps you achieve consistent, professional finishes from prototype runs to production work.
