M.A. Ford CDACRM0490 Cyclone Drill Aluminum 5X 2 Flute Coolant Fed
A 5× diameter, two-flute carbide drill with through-coolant for aluminium
- Optimised for aluminium with 5x diameter reach
- Two-flute design clears chips efficiently
- Coolant-fed channels extend tool life
- Cyclone geometry reduces cutting forces
- California Prop 65 chemical warning applies
Application Focus
The M.A. Ford CDACRM0490 Cyclone Drill targets aluminium machining with a 5X diameter design and two flutes. It suits CNC operators and production shops that need coolant-fed drilling for consistent chip evacuation and hole quality in non-ferrous materials.
Machine Compatibility
Verify that your spindle delivers the required coolant-through pressure and that the tool holder accepts the shank style used on this drill. Confirm the controller can run the programmed peck or dwell cycles needed for deep-hole aluminium work without exceeding the machine’s torque limits.
Build Integration
The coolant-fed design removes the need for external flood lines, freeing space around the workpiece and reducing setup time. Its two-flute geometry handles chip loads typical of aluminium, so the surrounding tooling can stay focused on other features rather than chip management.
Highlights
- Optimised for aluminium with 5x diameter reach
- Two-flute design clears chips efficiently
- Coolant-fed channels extend tool life
- Cyclone geometry reduces cutting forces
