M.A. Ford CDACRM1150 Cyclone drill for aluminium 5X 2 flute coolant fed
Coolant-fed CDACRM1150 cyclone drill cuts aluminium at 5× diameter with two flutes
- 5x diameter drilling depth for faster aluminium holes
- 2-flute design clears chips efficiently in soft metal
- Through-coolant feed extends tool life in production runs
- Cyclone geometry reduces cutting forces on aluminium alloys
- M.A. Ford manufacturing quality for consistent hole accuracy
Purpose and audience
The M.A. Ford CDACRM1150 Cyclone drill is engineered for aluminium machining at five times the diameter with two flutes and internal coolant delivery. It targets CNC operators and job shops that need reliable chip evacuation in non-ferrous materials.
Practical limits of the standard
The tool follows the 5X depth-to-diameter ratio, so hole depth is constrained by that multiple rather than by flute length alone. Coolant-fed design reduces built-up edge, yet the operator must still match feed and speed to the specific aluminium grade to avoid premature wear.
Build quality and daily implications
Carbide construction with through-coolant channels supports consistent performance in high-volume runs. The two-flute geometry simplifies regrinds, while the coolant-fed shank requires compatible tool holders and filtration to prevent blockage during extended shifts.

Questions about this item
What does the 1150 in the model code tell me about this drill?
The 1150 is the manufacturer's model identifier for the Cyclone drill designed for aluminium with a 5X length and two-flute coolant-fed design.
How does the 5X length affect performance in aluminium?
The 5X length-to-diameter ratio provides deeper hole capability while the two-flute coolant-fed design evacuates chips efficiently in aluminium.
What does coolant-fed mean for the drilling process?
Coolant-fed delivers cutting fluid directly to the cutting edges through the tool, improving chip evacuation and tool life in aluminium.
