M.A. Ford CDACR1250 Cyclone Drill Aluminum 5X 2 Flute Coolant Fed 1/8
A 1/8 inch cyclone drill with two flutes and coolant feed cuts aluminum at five times diameter depth
- Optimised for aluminium with Cyclone geometry
- Five-times diameter reach for deep-hole drilling
- Two-flute design improves chip evacuation
- Coolant-fed operation extends tool life
- 1/8-inch shank fits standard holders
Application focus
The M.A. Ford CDACR1250 Cyclone drill is engineered specifically for aluminium machining. Its 5X diameter flute length and internal coolant channels support deep-hole drilling with efficient chip evacuation. The two-flute geometry balances material removal rate and hole finish in non-ferrous alloys. This tool targets CNC operations where dedicated aluminium performance is required.
Suitability
Shops running high-volume aluminium work on coolant-equipped machines will benefit from the through-coolant design and extended reach. Operations without through-spindle coolant capability cannot use the internal feed feature. Facilities drilling primarily steel, titanium or hardened materials should select a geometry designed for those workpieces.
Deciding specification
The 5X diameter flute length defines the maximum drilling depth achievable in a single pass. This reach parameter determines whether the tool can complete the required hole without pecking or a secondary operation. Verify the depth demand against this multiple before specifying the drill.

Questions about this item
Does the M.A. Ford CDACR1250 Cyclone Drill include any accessories or only the drill bit itself?
The package contains the 1/8 inch diameter 2 flute coolant fed drill bit. No additional accessories, collets or holders are included.
Is the 5X length the only version of the CDACR1250 available for this diameter?
The CDACR1250 model is specified as a 5X diameter depth drill for aluminum. Other length variants carry different part numbers.
How does the 5X specification affect reach in a CNC machine?
The 5X ratio allows drilling to a depth five times the 1/8 inch diameter, providing extended reach for deep hole applications in aluminum.
