Abstract:
1. A tool for chip removing machining, comprising a holder and a tool head connected therewith, the holder defining a central longitudinal axis, the tool head including an insert-receiving seating surface on which a cutting insert is to be seated, the holder and the tool head including mutually facing connecting surfaces engaging one another to define a dividing plane therebetween, connecting members provided for rigidly connecting the tool head with the holder, the dividing plane extending in a direction generally perpendicular to a plane of the seating surface and forming a substantially 45° angle with a basal plane of the holder that extends in a direction generally perpendicular to the plane of the seating surface and that contains the longitudinal axis of the holder and intersects the connecting surface of the holder at an intermediate location substantially midway between axially foremost and rearmost ends of such connecting surface as seen when viewing the tool head in a direction perpendicular to a plane of the seating surface, wherein the basal plane forms an angle of substantially 45° with the dividing plane.
