M.A. Ford Cyclone Xd 3X Double Margin Drill 13/64
Solid double-margin drill bit drills 13/64 inch holes with 3X diameter depth capability
- 3X drilling depth reduces cycle time
- Double margin design improves hole straightness
- Solid carbide construction resists wear
- 13/64 inch diameter fits precision tasks
- Cyclone Xd geometry optimises chip evacuation
Purpose and user
The M.A. Ford Cyclone Xd 3X Double Margin Drill in 13/64 size is built for precision drilling in tough materials. It suits machinists and maintenance technicians who need consistent hole quality and extended tool life. The solid construction and double margin design improve guidance and reduce vibration during operation. Buyers needing larger diameters or different flute lengths should look elsewhere.
Thermals noise power
Friction heat is managed by the tool geometry and the coating that comes with the Cyclone Xd series. The double margins distribute cutting forces evenly, which keeps temperature rise moderate during normal drilling cycles. No internal cooling channels are present, so external coolant or peck cycles are recommended for deeper holes. Noise level depends on the machine spindle and workpiece rigidity.
Build fit and requirements
The 13/64 inch diameter fits standard drill holders and collets used in milling machines and drill presses. The shank matches common tooling systems so no special adapters are required. The solid carbide body allows higher speeds than high-speed steel drills, freeing up cycle time on CNC equipment. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to this product.

Questions about this item
How do I install the CXDSS2031AP drill in a drill press and what step is most often missed?
Chuck the 13/64 shank tightly, set low RPM for the material, and apply steady feed pressure; the step most often missed is using cutting fluid from the first hole.
What maintenance or replacement will the CXDSS2031AP need after extended use?
The solid carbide cutting edges will dull; resharpen on a diamond wheel or replace the drill when flank wear reaches the double margin.
What limit appears first on the CXDSS2031AP during sustained drilling?
Heat buildup at the 13/64 diameter cutting zone causes rapid wear if cutting fluid is interrupted or feed pressure is excessive.
