Abstract

An indexable tangential cutting insert for a milling tool includes two opposing side surfaces and four identical lateral surfaces extending between the side surfaces. Each lateral surface of the insert is provided with a support surface configured to be supported by, on one hand, a corresponding support face of a pocket of a tool body providing an axial support to the insert in two of eight index positions and, on the other, a corresponding support face of the pocket providing a tangential support to the insert in two other of said eight index positions. Each lateral surface of the insert is provided with a single second support surface being concave as seen in a direction perpendicular to said side surfaces and extending diagonally across the lateral surface.
