M.A. Ford Cyclone XD 3X Coolant Fed Drill
The M.A. Ford Cyclone XD 3X is a coolant fed double margin drill designed for precision hole making. It suits machinists and maintenance teams who need accurate drilling performance in metalworking applications. The 17/64 inch diameter targets specific fractional sizing requirements.
Double margin design and coolant feed
The double margin geometry improves hole straightness and surface finish by providing four points of contact. Internal coolant channels deliver cutting fluid directly to the drill point, enhancing chip evacuation and extending tool life in deeper holes. This configuration reduces cycle time compared to external cooling methods.
Solid carbide construction for rigidity
Solid carbide construction provides high rigidity and wear resistance for demanding materials. The shank fits standard tool holders used in CNC machining centres and rigid tapping setups. California Proposition 65 warnings apply because the product contains chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm.

Questions about this item
How often will the 17/64 inch double-margin drill need resharpening or replacement?
Resharpen the Cyclone XD when the cutting edges show wear; the double-margin design extends tool life, but replacement is needed once the margins no longer guide the hole accurately.
What limit appears first during continuous drilling with the coolant-fed 17/64 inch bit?
The coolant-fed design pushes the thermal limit higher, so chip evacuation or margin wear typically becomes the limiting factor before the tool overheats.
How much noise, heat and power draw should I expect when running the 17/64 inch Cyclone XD all day?
Expect typical high-speed drilling noise and moderate heat at the cutting zone; the through-coolant system carries heat away, keeping power demand steady during extended runs.
