When to choose it

The 501 covers four edge radii on half-inch shanks. It suits a set of projects that need both modest rounds and a broad 3/4-inch curve without changing collet size.

The package adds B2 bearings for the corresponding beading configurations. Check the instructions for the exact profile and confirm clearance individually, especially for the largest cutter.
