Freud 50-501 dual-bearing flush trim bit
1/4 in

When to choose it
The 50-501 suits a 1/4-inch collet when you need a flush trim bit that can follow a reference at either end of the cutter. The 1/2-inch diameter is useful when comparing how closely the cutter can follow an inside curve.
Measure the workpiece and template together before choosing the bearing position. Compare the larger 50-509 only if you have a compatible 1/2-inch collet and need its taller cutting section.
