Cyclone Drill for Aluminum
The M.A. Ford CDACR2500 is a solid-carbide drill engineered specifically for aluminium alloys. Its five-times-diameter flute length and two-flute geometry suit CNC shops and job-shop machinists who need reliable holes in non-ferrous workpieces.
1/4 inch coolant-fed shank
The quarter-inch diameter shank delivers internal coolant directly to the cutting zone. This single feature determines whether the drill fits your holder and clears chips effectively in deep-hole aluminium applications.
Sustained deep-hole drilling
Continuous coolant flow through the flutes stabilises temperature during extended cycles, preventing built-up edge and maintaining hole straightness at 5× depth without pecking interruptions.

Questions about this item
What does the 5X in the Cyclone Drill name mean once the tool is in the machine?
The 5X indicates a flute length five times the 1/4 diameter, giving a deeper reach in a single pass.
How does the coolant-fed design affect the cutting standard in practice?
Internal coolant delivery flushes chips from the flutes, allowing higher feed rates and longer tool life in aluminium.
What shank size and flute count does this drill need to fit the holder?
It has a 1/4 shank with two flutes, matching standard collets and holders for that diameter.
