M.A. Ford CDACR1200 Cyclone Drill
The M.A. Ford CDACR1200 is a new Cyclone drill designed for aluminum machining. It features a 5x diameter flute length with a 2-flute geometry and internal coolant feed. This tool targets high-volume production environments where chip evacuation and hole quality are critical. The design supports deeper drilling cycles in non-ferrous materials.
High-volume aluminum drilling specialists
This drill suits CNC operators running dedicated aluminum lines who need consistent coolant delivery to the cutting zone. The 2-flute configuration balances material removal rate with hole straightness in softer alloys. Shops without through-spindle coolant capability or those primarily machining steel, titanium, or hardened materials should look at something else. Low-volume job shops may find the specialized geometry harder to justify.
5x diameter flute length with coolant feed
The 1200 model designation corresponds to a 5x diameter flute length that determines maximum drilling depth in a single pass. This reach, combined with the coolant-fed design, dictates whether the tool can complete the required hole without pecking. Verify your machine spindle supports through-coolant and that the 5x length clears your workpiece and fixture. The California Proposition 65 notice applies to this product.

Questions about this item
Will the CDACR1200 fit the same tool holder I use for my current 1200 series drills?
The CDACR1200 is a 1200 series Cyclone drill with a 5x diameter flute length and two coolant-fed flutes, so it matches holders made for that series shank and length.
How can I confirm the coolant-fed flutes are delivering fluid correctly on the CDACR1200?
Start the spindle at low speed, engage coolant, and watch for a steady stream exiting both flute openings at the drill tip before increasing to full RPM.
Does the CDACR1200 package include the coolant adapter or just the drill body?
The box contains the CDACR1200 drill only; any coolant adapter, holder or wrench required for your machine must be sourced separately.
