PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a milling tool for gear-cutting in the present invention.SOLUTION: A tool body is provided with a milling insert having four cutting edges and two through-holes and assembled in the tangential direction, and only one of the two through-holes is used for a fixing screw to two positions among four edge indexing positions in total. Clamp force is provided by using proper elasticity of the fixing screw by providing a screw hole in an insert seat of the milling insert at a place of a distance from a radial directional support surface of the insert seat larger than a distance between the individual through-holes and a distant end part of the milling insert. With this constitution, the two through-holes in the milling insert different in length can be formed at a distance of an equal magnitude from the distant end part. Thus, the one same tool body can be provided with the milling insert different in length.
