A tangential cutting insert for a milling tool includes a cutting face that extends along a longitudinal axis and along a transversal axis, and a cutting edge that extends at the periphery of the cutting face. The cutting face has a central portion including first and second central cutting edges extending along the longitudinal axis and on opposite sides of the cutting face, and an outwardly extending end portion having at least three end cutting edges. A first of the at least two cutting edges is inclined relative to the longitudinal axis and a second of the at least two end cutting edges is inclined relative to the transversal axis at an angle from 10° to 35° respectively, for example, 20° to 30° or 25°.
