Indexable cutting tool and cutting insert

Abstract

To achieve more efficient cooling and lubrication by making a coolant more reliably and directly reach a machining point even in machining such as inner diameter grooving of a small diameter or grooving of a narrow groove width with which it is difficult for a coolant to reach a machining point. An indexable cutting tool that adopts a structure in which a cutting insert including cutting edges is removably mounted, by a set screw, on an insert mounting seat at an axial direction leading end part of a tool body includes: a coolant flow passage for coolant supply, the coolant flow passage being provided to the tool body; an opening part that is provided to the insert mounting seat; and a recessed part that forms a flow passage in which at least part of the coolant discharged from the opening part flows, the recessed part being provided to the cutting insert.
