ABSTRACT:
An indexable ball nose end mill is disclosed comprising an elongated tool holder having an insert clamped on one end. The insert is indexable such that when one cutting edge has become dull, the insert can be reversed end-for-end to use the cutting edge along the opposite side. The insert is clamped in its position between one end of the holder body and a cap having three protuberances. Two of the protuberances are received in a pair of generally frusto-conical recesses in the insert, and the third is received in a third opening in the body. A threaded fastener connects the cap to the body to clamp the insert in its cutting position. In another embodiment of the invention, two indexable inserts are mounted on the holder body.
