The rocker arm (2), obtained from a shaped element (30) made of metallic material, comprises surfaces (15,18) for engagement with a tappet (3) and with a stem (20) of a valve, respectively, and a portion (7) for mounting of a rotatable roller (8) able to co-operate with a cam-type actuating member (4). According to the invention, the surface (15) is formed in an insert (25) produced separately and fixed to the rocker arm. This constructional solution is particularly advantageous when the design constraints, determined by the position of the other elements of the valve train, require a substantial alignment between the center (A) of the surface (15) engaging the tappet, the center (B) of the roller and the contact (C) surface engaging the valve stem (20).
