Carmex Carbide Tiny Tool – Face Grooving bars are precision solid carbide tools designed specifically for creating straight, dependable grooves on a wide range of materials. Part of the Tiny Tools family, these bars deliver consistent geometry and clean finishes, making them ideal for engineers, machinists, fabricators, and hobbyists who need repeatable groove dimensions with minimal setup.

• Dual coating grades for versatile performance: Choose BXC TiN-coated grade for low cutting speeds and stainless steels, orBMK grade with sub-micron precision and triple-PVD coating for maximum heat resistance and smooth cutting. This flexibility helps you optimize tool life and surface finish across varied materials.
• Precise face-groove geometry for straight grooves: Specifically engineered for face grooving, these bars produce straight grooves rather than rounded profiles, delivering predictable seating and easier downstream assembly.
• Rugged carbide with optimized dimensions: Solid carbide construction paired with advanced coatings delivers durable wear resistance and stable cutting. The 8 mm minimum diameter and 1 mm groove width provide a robust, repeatable groove suitable for demanding stainless-steel jobs.

Using the Carmex Tiny Tool for face grooving helps streamline production with repeatable groove geometry, reduced rework, and longer tool life. The combination of high-quality carbide, advanced coatings, and purpose-built geometry supports reliable performance from the first cut to the last, minimizing downtime and helping you achieve consistent results across materials.
