The present invention relates to tools with replaceable tips and, more particularly, to arrangements for securing replaceable tips to tip holders. The tool includes a tip including a working end, a connecting end, and a radially extending abutment surface; a tip holder including a mating end for mating with the connecting end and a radially extending supporting surface for abutting against the abutment surface to limit axial movement of the tip relative to the tip holder. The connecting end is non-circular and includes a groove. The tool includes an assembly including the tip and the tip holder arranged such that, upon relative rotation of the tip and the tip holder in a connecting direction, an axial force is exerted on the groove and causes the abutment surface to move toward the supporting surface. |
