When to choose it

The 50-118 suits taller template-guided cuts when the reference is on the shank side. Its 1-3/4-inch carbide section and 3/4-inch nominal cutter diameter address height and inside curve clearance separately.

If your reference must sit at the opposite end, compare a dual-ended design such as the 50-509. Check that the exact height and bearing position both suit the planned cut.
