Cyclone Xd 5X Double Margin Drill
The M.A. Ford CXDCR5000AP is a solid carbide drill designed for high-performance holemaking in demanding materials. Its coolant-fed design delivers lubricant directly to the cutting zone for efficient chip evacuation and temperature control. The double margin construction improves hole straightness and surface finish during deep drilling operations. This tool targets professional machinists and manufacturers requiring precision and extended tool life.
Suited for high-volume production runs
Machinists drilling deep holes in tough alloys, stainless steels or hardened materials will benefit from the 5X diameter capability and through-coolant geometry. The double margins stabilise the drill in cross-holes and inclined entries, reducing walk and improving positional accuracy. Shops without high-pressure coolant systems or those primarily drilling shallow holes in soft materials should evaluate standard twist drills instead. Low-volume jobbers may find the specialised geometry unnecessary for general-purpose tasks.
5X diameter-to-length drilling ratio
The defining specification is the 5X length-to-diameter ratio, which determines the maximum reach achievable in a single pass without pecking. This ratio suits components requiring deep, straight holes such as hydraulic manifolds, aerospace brackets or mould cooling channels. Verify that your machine spindle and workholding can accommodate the required overhang and that coolant pressure meets the manufacturer's recommendations for optimal performance. The 5000 series designation identifies this specific geometry within the Cyclone Xd family.

Questions about this item
Will the 1/2 inch shank on the Cyclone Xd 5X fit the chuck on my older drill press?
The drill has a 1/2 inch shank, so it will fit any chuck that accepts that size.
How can I verify the coolant-fed double margin design is functioning correctly after installation?
Check for steady coolant flow through the tool and even hole walls, which show the double margins are guiding properly.
Does the box include coolant fittings or only the drill bit itself?
The package contains the Cyclone Xd drill; coolant fittings and supply hardware are sold separately.
