A tool for chip removing machining includes a holder and a cutting insert removably mounted therein. The insert includes a shaft having opposite ends and defining a first longitudinal center line. A cutting head projects integrally from at least one end of the shaft. The cutting head includes a cutting edge forming an angle of 45° with the first longitudinal center line. Alternatively, or additionally, the cutting head defines a second longitudinal center line forming an angle of 45° with the first longitudinal center line.
