What is presented is a cutting insert including a polygonal plate-shaped insert main body that includes: two polygonal surfaces; a side surface; and a cutting edge, the insert main body has a mounting hole that is centered on an insert center line passing through centers of the two polygonal surfaces, the cutting edge includes a major cutting edge extending from a first end of a corner edge located at a corner of the polygonal surface, and, in the opening of the mounting hole, a plurality of protrusions protruding with respect to a boss surface around an opening of the mounting hole are formed at intervals in a peripheral direction in an inner periphery side region of the major cutting edge.

Cutting insert and cutting edge replacement type cutting tool

A cutting insert includes a polygonal plate-shaped insert main body having two polygonal surfaces, a side surface having a flank, and a cutting edge to be formed in an intersection ridgeline portion between a rake face and the flank. The insert main body has a rotationally symmetrical shape with respect to an insert center line, and has a front-rear reversely symmetrical shape with respect to the polygonal surface. The cutting edge includes a corner cutting edge, a major cutting edge extending from an one end of the corner cutting edge, and a wiper cutting edge extending from an one end of the major cutting edge in a direction intersecting the major cutting edge at an obtuse angle. A first region is disposed where a clearance angle of the flank gradually decreases to a negative angle after continuously passing through 0&#xb0; from a positive angle.
