Abstract

A metal cutting tool includes a tool body rotatable about a center axis and a tool tip mounted on a front surface of said tool body for performing a cutting operation. A draw bar mounted axially in the tool body draws a rear surface of the tool tip toward the front surface of the tool body. Those front and rear surfaces include radial projections and radial recesses receiving the projections. The projections are wedgingly connected in the recesses to transmit all axial and rotational forces between the tool body and tool tip.
