A tool body and a turning tool for grooving operations having the tool body include a fitting member extending along a longitudinal first axis for fixing the tool body to a machine. The tool body's upper and lower clamping members each having respective inner seating surfaces facing one another and separated by an intermediate gap in which a cutting insert is insertable. A major part of the lower inner seating surface extends along a second axis perpendicular to the first axis. The clamping members are movable toward one another by a tightening device in order to secure the cutting insert in the intermediate gap. The tool body is integrally formed in a unitary piece. A hinge joint is formed between the clamping members, such that they are movable with respect to one another by turning around an axis of rotation of the hinge joint, extending perpendicularly to the second axis.

A clamp for a tool holder is disclosed. The clamping tool holder includes a body having an insert-receiving pocket and a threaded clamp-receiving bore with a coolant opening for receiving pressurized coolant from a coolant source. A clamp includes a threaded aperture extending from a top surface to a bottom surface and coolant passages in fluid communication with a coolant header. A clamp screw is threaded into the threaded aperture of the clamp. The clamp screw includes a plurality of coolant passages in fluid communication with the coolant opening of the body, and at least one coolant channel in fluid communication with the coolant passage. Coolant from the coolant source enters the coolant opening of the body, travels into the clamp screw, travels into each coolant passage of the clamp, and then exits the clamp in a direction toward a cutting insert-workpiece interface.

A cutting tool includes a cutting chip and a chip holder. The chip holder includes: a body part having a height dimension larger than a width dimension, the body part including a first attachment face that intersects with a cutting feed direction, and a second attachment face that intersects with the first attachment face; a chip support part whose base end portion is connected to the body part and in which the cutting chip is attached to the upper end portion in the height direction of a tip end portion of the chip support part such that the cutting chip projects to one side in the width direction of the chip support part; a reinforcement part provided along the height direction of the chip support part; and a chip receiving part that supports the cutting chip projecting from the chip support part.
