Precision drilling tool
The M.A. Ford Cyclone Xd 3X is a solid double margin drill sized at 21/64. It is built for machinists who need accurate holemaking in steel, cast iron and other ferrous materials. The three-flute geometry supports stable cutting and consistent chip evacuation. This accessory fits standard industrial tool holders for CNC or manual operations.
Solid carbide construction
The one-piece carbide body resists deflection and holds tight tolerances through the cut. Double margins guide the drill evenly, reducing wander and improving finish quality on through-holes. The shank seats securely in collets and hydraulic holders without extra adapters. No coolant-through channel is present, so external flood or mist delivery is required.
California Proposition 65 notice
The product carries a Proposition 65 warning for chemicals linked to cancer and reproductive harm. Users should follow shop safety practices including ventilation, gloves and proper waste handling. No coatings, lubricants or software are bundled with the drill. The item ships directly from the manufacturer in its original packaging.

Questions about this item
What shank standard does the 21/64 drill use and what diameter does it limit?
The 21/64 drill uses a straight shank that fits standard three-jaw chucks, limiting the maximum bit diameter to 21/64 inch.
What flute length and overall length does the 21/64 drill need for clearance?
The 3X solid double margin design gives a flute length roughly three times the diameter, so allow about 1 inch of flute clearance plus the shank length in the chuck.
How do you install the 21/64 drill in a drill press and what step is often missed?
Open the chuck, insert the shank fully, tighten all three jaws evenly, then verify the bit runs true before starting the spindle.
