Abstract

A cutting insert for rotating cutting tools for chip-breaking metal machining is delimited by atop side, adjacent to which there are cutting edges, an opposed bottom side and one or several relief surfaces. In the topside is provided a first depression for accommodating a male-like protrusion on a clamping element for fixing of the cutting insert. In the bottom side is provided a female recess for cooperating with a male means on the seat of the cutting insert. By these male-female joints, it is guaranteed that the cutting insert is not flung out from the appurtenant seat, when it is submitted to extremely large centrifugal forces.
