Coolant-fed double-margin drill cuts 9.70 mm holes with 3× diameter depth
- Coolant-fed design removes heat for longer tool life
- Double-margin geometry improves hole straightness and finish
- 3× diameter drilling depth reached in a single pass
- 70 mm diameter suits precise metric holes
- California Proposition 65 warning informs safe handling
9.70 mm Cyclone Xd drill
The M.A. Ford Cyclone Xd 3X is a coolant-fed double-margin drill with a 9.70 mm cutting diameter. It is built for precision holemaking in demanding machining applications where chip evacuation and tool life are critical.
Who this suits and who it does not
Machinists needing a rigid, high-performance drill for deep-hole work with through-coolant capability will benefit from the double-margin design. Buyers who require a larger or smaller diameter, a non-coolant-fed tool, or a different flute length should look at other options.
Installation and common issues
The drill mounts in standard tool holders compatible with its shank; ensure the machine spindle can deliver coolant through the tool for proper operation. Common problems include premature wear if coolant pressure is insufficient, chip packing in deep holes without peck cycles, and margin damage from misalignment or incorrect feed rates.

Questions about this item
What machine spindle interface is required for the 9.70 mm Cyclone Xd 3X Coolant Fed Double Margin Drill?
The drill uses a standard straight shank that fits any CNC or manual machine spindle capable of holding a 9.70 mm diameter tool with through-coolant delivery.
Can the 9.70 mm Cyclone Xd drill run on an older machining centre that only offers flood coolant?
Yes, the drill will still cut, but the 3X coolant-fed design is optimised for through-spindle pressure; flood coolant reduces chip evacuation and may limit depth performance.
How do I verify the 9.70 mm Cyclone Xd is performing correctly after installation?
Check for consistent chip formation, stable spindle load, hole diameter within tolerance and no discolouration on the double margins after the first few holes.
