A milling tool includes a rotary milling body forming pockets for receiving respective cutting inserts. Optional cassettes can be mounted in the pockets to receive the inserts. Each insert includes two side surfaces interconnected by four edge surfaces. The insert is double-sided in that each side surface includes two pairs of cutting edges. Each pair of cutting edges includes major and minor cutting edges meeting each other at a cutting corner of the insert. One of the side surfaces includes two cutting corners disposed at opposite ends of one of the edge surfaces, and the other side surface includes two cutting corners disposed at opposite ends of another, opposite edge surface. Each of those two opposite edge surfaces includes a recess for receiving an abutment surface situated at the respective pocket, for defining a stop surface for the insert from moving in a direction parallel to the axis of rotation. |
