Cyclone Drill for Aluminium 5X
The M.A. Ford CDACR5000 Cyclone Drill is engineered specifically for aluminium machining with a 5X diameter design. Its two-flute geometry and internal coolant feed promote efficient chip evacuation and temperature control during deep-hole drilling operations. This tool targets manufacturers and machine shops producing aluminium components.
Suited for high-volume aluminium work
Shops that prioritise cycle-time reduction and hole quality in non-ferrous materials will benefit from the coolant-fed design. Facilities without through-spindle coolant capability or those primarily drilling steel, titanium or composites should evaluate alternative tooling better matched to those materials.
5X diameter-to-depth ratio
The 5X specification defines the maximum drilling depth relative to the tool diameter, making it the decisive factor for hole-depth planning. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to this product.

Questions about this item
Does the 5X Cyclone drill generate excessive heat during continuous CNC cycles?
The coolant-fed design channels fluid through the flutes to control temperature during extended aluminium drilling.
What machine setup is required to use the coolant-fed 1/2 inch Cyclone drill?
A CNC or milling spindle with through-tool coolant delivery and a 1/2 inch holder is needed.
Will the 2-flute 5X geometry work reliably on older manual mills without rigid tapping?
The drill is optimised for rigid CNC spindles with coolant; manual machines may lack the stability and coolant pressure for full performance.
