M.A. Ford CXDSR 1190AP Cyclone Xd 5X Double Margin Drill 11.90 mm

Precision drill for deep holes

The M.A. Ford CXDSR 1190AP Cyclone Xd is a solid carbide drill with a 11.90 mm cutting diameter and a 5X diameter flute length. It is designed for machinists who need accurate deep-hole drilling in a single pass without pecking cycles. The double-margin design improves hole straightness and surface finish in demanding materials. It suits CNC operations where consistent precision is required.

Shank fit and coolant strategy

The drill uses a standard cylindrical shank that fits common ER collets or hydraulic holders without special adapters. Its through-coolant capability allows coolant to reach the cutting zone directly, which clears chips from deep flutes and reduces heat buildup. This frees the programmer from adding external coolant nozzles or frequent retract cycles. The solid construction eliminates the need for replaceable inserts or tip changes.

Steady cutting under load

The double margins stabilise the tool during continuous engagement, reducing vibration and margin wear when the full flute length is buried in the workpiece. Chip evacuation remains consistent because the polished flutes and coolant flow prevent packing even at depth. The carbide substrate resists thermal softening during long cuts, so diameter and finish stay within tolerance. It is not suited for hand-held drilling or interrupted cuts where impact could fracture the solid carbide body.
