Aluminium Drilling Specialist
The M.A. Ford CDACRM0970 Cyclone Drill is engineered specifically for aluminium workpieces. Its 5X diameter configuration and two-flute geometry target machinists and fabricators who need efficient chip evacuation in non-ferrous metals. The coolant-fed design supports sustained cutting performance during production runs.
Coolant-Fed Installation Notes
Fitting this drill requires a machine spindle equipped for through-coolant delivery and a compatible tool holder. The two-flute layout reduces clogging risk, yet incorrect coolant pressure or misaligned holders can still cause premature wear. Operators should verify spindle runout before starting a job.
Best For High-Volume Aluminium
Shops running repeated aluminium drilling cycles will benefit from the specialised flute profile and internal cooling. The tool is less suited for one-off maintenance tasks, mixed-material setups, or machines without through-spindle coolant capability. Buyers needing broader material coverage should evaluate general-purpose alternatives.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the CDACRM0970 Cyclone Drill is cutting aluminum correctly after setup?
Check for smooth, consistent chip evacuation through the coolant-fed channels and a clean hole finish without built-up edge on the 2-flute design.
What comes with the CDACRM0970 drill and what must I supply separately?
The drill itself is included; you will need a compatible coolant-fed tool holder and coolant system for through-tool delivery.
Which CDACRM0970 version should I choose for 5× diameter depth holes in aluminum?
The CDACRM0970 is a 5×D, 2-flute, coolant-fed model designed specifically for that depth range in aluminum.
