Abstract
A tool for parting or grooving includes a holder to which is mounted an adapter having an insert-receiving slot formed between support and clamping portions of the adapter. The holder includes a serration meshing with a serration of the adapter. Threaded holes are formed through the serration of the holder, and through-holes are formed in the adapter in alignment with respective holes of the holder. Screws extend through the aligned through-hole and threaded hole to secure the adapter to the holder. A slot intersects through one of the through-holes of the adapter to render the clamping portion elastically deformable. That through-hole includes a conically-shaped entrace surface, and the associated screw includes a conical head which acts as a wedge to force the clamping portion into clamping engagement with the insert.
