Cyclone Drill for Aluminium Machining
The M.A. Ford CDACRM0460 is a coolant-fed drill built for aluminium work. Its 5X diameter reach and two-flute geometry suit production runs where chip evacuation and hole straightness matter. Buyers needing a standard twist drill for general steel or a larger diameter than stocked should look elsewhere.
Two-Flute Coolant-Fed Construction
Coolant passages run through the tool body to flush chips from deep holes without peck cycles. The two-flute design balances chip space with core strength for consistent feed rates. Operators without through-spindle coolant capability cannot use the internal feed feature.
Heat Management in Aluminium
Coolant delivery to the cutting zone controls temperature during extended 5X depth cuts. Reduced heat buildup preserves edge sharpness and limits built-up edge formation on the flutes. The tool carries a Proposition 65 warning for chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and reproductive harm.

Questions about this item
What does the 5X designation mean for the Cyclone drill flute length?
The 5X indicates a five-times-diameter flute length, giving deeper hole capacity in a single pass compared to standard stub or jobber drills.
What shank style does the CDACRM0460 use for tool-holder mounting?
The drill has a straight cylindrical shank designed for standard hydraulic, shrink-fit or collet holders used in CNC machining centres.
How should the coolant-fed channels be primed before the first cut?
Run the machine's coolant system at low pressure for several seconds to purge air from the internal channels before engaging the workpiece.
