M.A. Ford Cyclone Drill for Aluminum 5X
The M.A. Ford CDACRM0960 is a coolant-fed drill designed for aluminium machining. Its two-flute geometry and 5X capability support efficient chip evacuation in production environments. The tool arrives new and ships directly from the manufacturer. California Proposition 65 warnings apply for cancer and reproductive harm.
Suited for high-volume aluminium drilling
CNC operators running dedicated aluminium lines will benefit from the coolant-fed design and 5X reach. Workshops without through-spindle coolant or those drilling steel, titanium or composites should select a different tool. The Prop 65 notice also matters for facilities with strict substance restrictions.
5X reach with two-flute coolant-fed design
The 5X length-to-diameter ratio combined with internal coolant delivery is the specification that determines fit for deep-hole aluminium work. Shops needing shorter reach, more flutes or external cooling only will find this drill mismatched. The 960 model number identifies this specific configuration.

Questions about this item
How do I fit the Cyclone drill into a CNC spindle and what step causes coolant leaks?
Mount the straight shank in a precision collet or hydraulic holder, then torque the retention nut to spec; the step most operators miss is seating the coolant-through adapter flush so the internal passage aligns without a gap.
Which part of the CDACRM0960 wears first and when should I replace it?
The two cutting lips and margin lands dull before the shank or coolant hole; replace the drill once flank wear reaches the re-grind limit or hole size drifts out of tolerance.
What stops me running this 5×D aluminum drill continuously at high feed?
Chip evacuation in deep 5×D holes is the first limit — if coolant pressure or volume drops, chips pack the flutes and the tool overheats or snaps.
