Solid double-margin drill for precision holes
The Cyclone Xd 3X drill cuts 17/32 inch diameter holes with a solid-carbide body and double-margin design. It targets machinists and maintenance crews who need accurate, repeatable results in tough alloys. The tool suits high-performance drilling where stability and hole quality matter most.
Limits of solid-carbide tooling
Solid carbide offers hardness and wear resistance but lacks the toughness of cobalt or carbide-tipped alternatives. Heavy interruption, deep holes without pecking, or unstable fixturing can cause chipping or breakage. Users must match feeds, speeds and coolant to the material to avoid catastrophic failure.
Build quality and shank implications
The solid construction eliminates braze joints, giving consistent run-out and longer edge life in production runs. A cylindrical shank fits standard collets and drill chucks without special holders. The 65 warning labels flag regulated substances, so shops must follow local handling and ventilation rules.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 17/32 inch Cyclone Xd 3X drill or a different diameter?
Choose the 17/32 inch size when your hole requirement matches that exact fractional diameter; other Cyclone Xd 3X drills are offered in different fractional sizes for other hole diameters.
What does the 3X designation mean for hole depth on this 17/32 inch drill?
The 3X rating indicates the drill is designed to produce holes up to three times the 17/32 inch diameter in depth before pecking is required.
What shank standard does the CXDSS5312AP use and what does it limit?
The CXDSS5312AP uses a standard straight shank that fits common drill chucks and collets, limiting use to holders that accept that shank style.
