GRS C-Max 90° Narrow Bevel Carbide Graver – 1/8 Inch
The GRS C-Max 90° Narrow Bevel Carbide Graver is a precision, pre-shaped tungsten carbide graver designed for deep, narrow V-cuts, stone setting, straight-line engraving, and precision hand engraving. Its 90° cutting angle, precision-ground parallel sides, and rounded top provide a consistent geometry for controlled cutting and detailed metalwork.
Made from GRS C-Max carbide, this graver combines the hardness and toughness needed for demanding engraving and stone-setting applications. The tool is pre-shaped to 90°, saving preparation time compared with grinding the basic geometry from a blank. It should, however, be properly sharpened before use to establish the final cutting edge and heel for your specific application.
Features & Benefits

Why Choose a Narrow Bevel Graver?
A narrow bevel graver is designed for applications where a deep, controlled V-shaped cut is required. The 90° geometry of this GRS C-Max graver makes it particularly useful for stone setting and straight-line engraving, where precise cutting control is important.
The precision-ground parallel sides and rounded upper edge provide a consistent, pre-formed cutting geometry, while the C-Max carbide construction provides the durability and edge performance expected from a professional engraving tool.
C-Max Carbide Performance
GRS developed C-Max carbide specifically for engraving and stone-setting applications. The material is designed to balance hardness with toughness, helping the graver maintain a sharp cutting edge while providing the durability needed for demanding work.
The C-Max Narrow Bevel series is available in 90°, 105°, and 120° angles, allowing engravers to select the geometry best suited to their particular cutting technique.
Sharpening
This graver is pre-shaped but should be properly sharpened before use. Sharpening establishes the final cutting edge and heel geometry needed for your engraving technique.
Because C-Max is a hard tungsten carbide material, use appropriate diamond sharpening equipment when sharpening the tool.
Tool Holder Compatibility
The graver has a 1/8-inch (3.175 mm) round shank and two flat alignment areas. The flats allow the set screws in a GRS QC Tool Holder to orient and secure the graver consistently.
Use with the GRS QC Tool Holder for 1/8-Inch Round Tools #004-873.
