When to choose it

Choose the 1026 for a half-inch straight cut when you have a quarter-inch collet and need a longer cutting section than the 1025 provides.

Its one-inch cutting section describes available geometry. Check machine limits and try the groove against the actual mating stock before routing the workpiece.
