A cutting tool includes a tool body and an ambidextrous clamp for removably securing a cutting insert to the tool body. The clamp has at least one internal fluid duct passing through a space between two clamp screw throughbores located mirror symmetrically with respect to a plane of symmetry and extending from a coolant fluid inlet port to at least one discharge orifice. The clamp is secured to the tool body by a single screw located in one of the clamp screw throughbores and threadingly engaged with a single threaded bore of the tool body. The same clamp is used in both left-handed and right-handed tools, and the jet of the coolant fluid is ejected from the discharge orifice of the clamp onto the same region of the cutting insert in both cases. |
