Cyclone Xd 5X drill for 15/32 inch holes
The M.A. Ford Cyclone Xd 5X is a solid double-margin drill designed to produce 15/32 inch diameter holes. It targets machinists and maintenance teams who need accurate drilling in a range of materials. The tool is supplied new and ships directly from the manufacturer.
Practical limits of the double-margin design
The double-margin geometry improves hole straightness and finish while the 5X length extends reach for deeper holes. Chip evacuation becomes the limiting factor as depth increases, so peck cycles or through-coolant are often required. The tool carries a California Proposition 65 warning for chemicals linked to cancer and reproductive harm.
Installation notes and common issues
The drill fits standard tool holders that accept a 15/32 inch shank diameter; verify holder capacity before mounting. Run-out must be kept low to prevent margin wear and oversized holes. Incorrect speeds or insufficient lubrication typically cause premature edge breakdown.

Questions about this item
How does the 15/32 inch diameter fit into my drilling plan?
The 15/32 inch diameter is a single fixed size, so you select this drill when that exact hole dimension is required.
What does the 5X rating tell me about hole depth in steel?
The 5X designation means the flute length supports drilling up to five times the 15/32 inch diameter in a single pass.
Does the double margin design change the shank fit in a standard chuck?
No, the double margin is on the cutting portion only; the shank remains a standard round shank for normal chucks.
