Abstract
A cutting tool has a cutting insert secured in a tool shank by means of a clamping bolt, whereby two opposing side surfaces of a body portion of the cutting insert are located between two spaced apart protuberances of the tool shank. The body portion includes a cut-out extending between the two opposing side surfaces and opening out to a bottom surface. The cut-out includes an undercut with at least one undercut sub-surface with respect to a forward direction. The clamping bolt can be rotated from a locked position wherein the bolt shank has a threaded portion engaged in one of the protuberances and a bolt locking portion located directly forward of the at least one undercut sub-surface, to an un-locked position wherein the threaded portion remains engaged in the protuberance and no portion of the bolt shank is located directly forward of the at least one undercut sub-surface.
