The clamp backs the cutting insert against the cutting pressure during operation and provides for the use of a same rotary cutter with different profiles of cutting inserts. Plugs of predetermined weight can be inserted in pre-formed holes in the cutting insert to permit recalibration of the insert after a sharpening operation.
