Abstract: A tool holder (1) has a shaft (2) intended to be arranged in a tool holder in a manufacturing machine, a head (3) on which a cutter is intended to be arranged and a viscoelastic materials (4) arranged so that the cutter is in contact with the manufacturing machine solely via the viscoelastic material (4), in which at least those parts on the surface (5) of the shaft (2) that are intended to be in contact with the manufacturing machine are provided with the viscoelastic material (4). The viscoelastic material (4) is attached on a bearer material that is attached to the surface (5) of the shaft (2).

Abstract: This invention relates to slot milling tools and the like where a number of inserts (4) are detachably mounted at the periphery of a disc shaped carrier means (1). The seats (3) of the inserts are arranged within integral holding projections arranged and shaped relatively to the intended positions to the inserts that on operation the radial component of the cutting force biases the holding force acting against the insert so that it increases on increase of cutting force. This is achieved by arranging at the essentially radially projections (7) an obliquely located nose portion (8) engaging the insert.
