Abstract
A tool for the fine-turning of grooves in workpieces including a basic body having a rearwardly extending mounting part, and a forwardly projecting bracket. The bracket includes a narrow neck part and an enlarged support part disposed at an end of the neck part. The support part, which forms an insert seat, extends laterally from the neck part wherein the seat is arranged asymmetrically with respect to an imaginary center line of the basic body. A cutting insert includes a bottom side supported on the insert seat. The insert includes two spaced apart convexly arched side cutting edges arranged so that the imaginary center line passes therebetween. A hole is provided through the insert for receiving a fastening screw. The bottom side and the insert seat include mutually engaging stabilizing structures preventing angular displacement of the insert about an axis of the hole.
