10.50 mm Cyclone XD drill
The M.A. Ford Cyclone XD 3X double margin drill is a 10.50 mm solid carbide cutting tool designed for precision holemaking. It suits machinists and maintenance teams who need accurate diameter control in a range of materials. The double margin design improves hole straightness and surface finish during operation. This accessory fits standard tool holders for CNC and manual drilling applications.
Sustained cutting behaviour
The 3X diameter flute length allows deeper holes in a single pass without peck cycles. Double margins stabilise the drill throughout the cut, reducing wander as depth increases. Solid carbide construction maintains edge integrity under continuous load better than cobalt or HSS alternatives. Chip evacuation remains consistent through the extended flute length during prolonged drilling.
Thermal and power characteristics
Carbide substrate resists heat buildup at the cutting edges during normal drilling cycles. The double margin geometry distributes cutting forces evenly, lowering spindle load compared to single margin drills. No internal coolant channels are present, so external flood or mist coolant manages temperature in typical use. Stable torque demand helps prevent sudden power spikes on the machine drive.

Questions about this item
How much heat does the 10.50 mm Cyclone XD drill generate during continuous drilling?
The solid carbide construction and double margin design help dissipate heat efficiently, reducing thermal buildup during extended use in steel or cast iron.
What tool holder or machine spindle is required for the 10.50 mm shank?
A standard 10.50 mm capacity drill chuck, collet or hydraulic holder with matching runout tolerance is needed to secure the shank properly.
Will the 3X flute geometry work with older manual drill presses?
Yes, the self-centering point and reinforced margins allow stable cutting on conventional machines, though rigid CNC setups maximise the 3X feed advantage.
