Precision drilling for demanding materials
The M.A. Ford Cyclone Xd 5X is a solid double margin drill designed for accurate hole-making in tough alloys. Its 4.70 mm diameter suits production runs where tight tolerances and consistent finish matter. Professional machinists and maintenance teams choose it for reliable performance in stainless steel, titanium and high-temperature alloys.
Carbide substrate limits speed and feed windows
The cutting geometry allows five-times-diameter depth without pecking in many materials, yet the carbide body demands rigid setups and precise coolant delivery. Excessive run-out or insufficient thrust will chip the margins, so the tool is unsuitable for hand-held or low-rigidity machines. Users must match spindle capability to the drill’s requirements.
Double margins guide the drill for straight holes
Two full-diameter lands contact the hole wall simultaneously, improving alignment and surface finish compared with single-margin designs. The solid construction eliminates brazed joints that can fail under high thrust. Standard shank fits common ER collets and hydraulic holders, simplifying tool changes on CNC lathes and machining centres.

Questions about this item
Is the 4.70 mm size the right choice for my drilling application?
The 4.70 mm diameter is a fixed specification of this drill; select it when your hole size or tap drill chart calls for exactly 4.70 mm.
What does the 5X designation mean for drilling depth in use?
The 5X rating indicates the flute length supports drilling up to five times the 4.70 mm diameter in a single pass.
How does the solid double margin design affect guidance and finish?
Two full-diameter margins keep the drill centred, reducing walk and improving hole straightness and surface finish.
