Abstract

A parting tool includes a thin holder forming a groove open at one end, and a double-ended cutting insert mounted in the groove. The insert includes front and rear cutting edges and a rear end surface abutting against a rear support surface of the groove. The rear support surface is configured to enable differently shaped double-ended inserts to be mounted therein without the occurrence of contact between the rear cutting edge and a surface of the holder.
