Cyclone drill for aluminium 5xD
The M.A. Ford CDACRM0590 Cyclone drill is a solid-carbide tool built for high-volume aluminium machining. Its 5x diameter flute length and two-flute geometry target production shops that need fast, repeatable holes in wrought or cast alloys. Internal coolant channels deliver fluid directly to the cutting zone for reliable chip evacuation.
Replaces general-purpose jobber drills
Standard twist drills lack the rigidity and coolant delivery needed for deep aluminium holes without pecking. This tool eliminates secondary operations by holding diameter tolerance and surface finish in a single pass. The upgrade pays off when cycle time and tool-change frequency become bottlenecks on CNC centres.
Sustained load behaviour
Continuous coolant flow prevents built-up edge and thermal softening during long runs in gummy alloys. The two-flute design maintains chip control at elevated feed rates without clogging. Carbide substrate resists flank wear, keeping hole quality consistent across thousands of parts.

Questions about this item
What shank size does the CDACRM0590 Cyclone drill need to fit my machine?
The drill uses a standard cylindrical shank that fits any 590-style collet or drill chuck rated for its diameter.
How do I install the coolant-fed drill correctly so the fluid reaches the tip?
Connect the coolant supply to the through-spindle port, then tighten the holder until the internal passage aligns — skipping this alignment blocks flow.
When should I replace the 2-flute Cyclone drill for aluminum work?
Replace it when the cutting edges show 65 µm of flank wear or when hole diameter drifts outside tolerance for the 5X depth ratio.
