Main cutout type 1 is supposed to be a tight cutout, that means, the clearances are normally small, cf. the figure below. However, by selecting proper values of clearances many of the cutouts normally belonging to other main types can be created as instances of main type 1 as well. This might be of special interest for profile type 36 if the cutout is supposed to follow the shape of the top of the profile.

Figure 2:17. Main type 1, radii.
All the "normal" profile types (type<50) are supported.
Some radii are irrelevant for certain profile types:
|
For flat bars (type 10): |
R2, R3, R7, R8 |
|
For bulb bars (type 20): |
R2, R3, R5-R8 |
|
For angle bars (type 30, 31, 33, 37, 38): |
R2, R3 |
